UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL

Patients, Nurses and Colds Making

I Patients in the University of Penn
sylvania Hospital, the nurses and the
University co-eds are knitting hundreds
Of wooden articles and supplying war
materials for the University Base Hos
pital Unit No. 20. They have made II
possible for the Auxiliary of the Univer-
sity Unit to relieve the Red Cross auXll-
iaries Of this task and from now on the
University auxiliary organization will
do this work.
II The patients, nurses and co-eds have
put SO much enthusiasm into this Won
derful service OF mercy that more than
600 woolen articles have already been
! turned into the unit. Two thousand dol
lars has been raised.
So eager are the members Of the
suxiliary and their friends to continue
this work as donation to the Univer-
Z sity OF Pennsylvania that Mrs. T..
Mitchell Hastings. chairman OF the COM
mittee, is writing to each of the Univer-
sity graduates to endeavor to raise suf-
Z hcient money to send 100 complete out
fits to the hospital in France to be given
the convalescent patients returning to
the front from the hospital. The need
Of these outfits Is very great. owing to
the scarcity of underwear and the ex-
treme necessity of the wounded soldiers
being kept warm in their weakened con-
dition.
