 Production at the local headquart- CTS A. R. c. will be suspended until further orders, which are expected in the fall. The shipment just made to New York is most satisfactory, com prising four large cases, three of which will doubtless not be opened until they reach Europe. The fourth contains more than one kind of article and so will be repacked in New York. The present shipment comprises 40 women's nightgowns, 230 women's petticoats and 20 layettes, these latter contain "A articles besides the sundry bag. Of these articles IS had to be made. Of the above 150 petticOats were made at the Hollow, a fine contri- button. The local A. R. c. has been at work since Sept. 4, 1917. A high spirit of idealism and patriotism has always been in evidence. The loyalty since the signing of the armistice has been especially remarkable. The rooms, so generously loaned by the Stafford Business Mems association, with their every convenience, have yrately facilitated the work, and much gratitude is felt toward those who yielded personal comfort to an ideal. Many loans of equipment have made work pleasant and comfortable and hese loans have been warmly appreci lted. The classes in home care of the tick will meet to-day at 3 p. m. and z ). m. Members of classes may attend It either hour. The examination will ,e held on Tuesday and it is expected hat the rooms, so favorable to R. c. ,ndeavors, will be returned to their lonors next Thursday.
