FROM WALDO COUNTY TO SIBERIA

The white sweaters referred to in this

Vladivostok (Siberia) Chapter.
Vladivostok, June 2, 1920.
Waldo County, Maine, Chapter
Dear Members, One and All:
How | wish you could know what a
throb of pride my heart gave when, upon
looking over lot of white sweaters,
found the mark of your chapter attached
to eight of them, the remainder of the 10,
being from Wellesley and Newton, Mass.
chapters.
During the past few months, as an off
cial of our chapter, | have handled hun
dreds of garments which were turned
over to me for distribution by the Sibe-
riap Commission, A. R. c., but this is
the first time | have come across the
mark of Mine chapter. Being York
County woman, it was like breath from
the Homeland for me.
One gave to a refugee woman here
who has seven children and is absolutely
without means. Her husband, former
colonel in the guards, is missing, and
were it not for assistance from the Red
Cross, they would have starved long ago.
We are raising money to send them home
to Bessarabia, but it is difficult to secure
passage. They have been stranded here
for year already. Another was given to
the wife of an orthodox priest, also refu-
gees here with barely clothes enough to
! cover them. A third was given to a
young Russian school girl whose mother
used to do volunteer work with our chap
ter, but who died last year. A fourth
went to her little friend whose father
died in Germany and whose mother has
hard work to earn food for them both
The suffering here is terri lie and we
shall soon be facing another winter
Every one is sorry to see the Siberian
Commission close up its wonderful work
here as our chapter is far too tiny a one
to carry on much of the relief although
we shall do our best. Having lived here
many years l am able in many cases to
get in touch with destitute families whose
pride still keeps them from asking assist
ance through the more public channels,
as long as they can keep their children
fed and have any of their Lares and PEN
ates left which are salable. The second
hand shops are pitiful in their assort-
ment of treasured things, of little value,
which the people have had to part with
to get food.
With greetings to all members, and
deep and grateful appreciation of your
work, remain,
Yours very sincerely,
Eleanor L. Pray,
Treas.
