ministration and have conducted food
Kitchens and distributing stations N

In all the relief work being done In
Europe, that Of the Polish Grays has
been unique because all the girls.
though sent from America, were either
born In Poland or are Of Polish papen-
tage. When the need for social sery-
lee In their country became acute
many girls Of Polish descent answered
the call of the Young Women's Chris
tian Association for overseas service
and enlisted in the preliminary train
ing course that was given In several
cities Of the Unlted, States. From this
group thirty girls we're chosen and sent
to Poland where. since 1918, they have
been caring for the children of the
country. The distribution of clothing
has taken them into all parts Of
Poland.
They are now spending their entire

children this winter. Groups Of them
