RED CROSS WORK.

DoN'Ts FOR THE KNITTERs OF SOCKS.
Don't cast on tightly. An otherwise
we'll knitted sock may become useless
by having tight cord at the top.
Don't knot your wool. Join the ends
by splicing, or by knitting the ends
double by two or three inches; or by
running the new end into the old end
with a worsted needle, which may al
ways be kept on hand for this purpose.
Don't make heel with seam on
the sole. Remember q man may not
have q chance to change his socks for
many days, and lump or knct brings
Q blister. II the blister breaks, blood
poisoning may set in and result in the
loss OF foot or even life. We can
not afford to lose our men through
negligence or ignorance.
Don't use needles too fine for the
wool. The knitting should be elastic;
il too tightly knitted to sock becomes
hard and bosrdlike in use.
Don't: make a foot less than II
inches long.
Don't hand in socks without having
them washed and ironed. This makes
them softer and more comfortable
to the wearer, and insures q certain
amount of shrinkage.

Hers, the helmet with flaps having
taken their place.
The seams in the two piece helmets
should be made as fat IS possible,

over the knitted one. A large seam

the wear.
In making wristlets, it is important
