Catholic Church Makes
Drive For German Aid
CLOTHING CAMPAIGN - STARTS
JANUARY 2sTH AND ENDS
FEBRUARY nth.

We can have only faint idea OF
the economic situation in which the
people of Germany are struggling. All
are in want, but especially in the
cities the working people and those
Of the middle class are LITERALLY
facing starvation. In the winter,
which has already set in, besides the
lack of food there is the want of nee
essary clothing; so that freezing is
added to hunger. 1t is needless to say
that because OF these priyations chill
dren, the aged, and especially preg-
nant and nursing women, are. perish
ing.
In the face of this sorroWful spec
tacle it is not the time to ask who is
responsible for it. Rather, it is the
duty of all those whose hearts beat
with sentiments Of humanity and
Christian charity, to come as quickly
and as effectively as they can to the
aid of these poor victims, who, surely
cannot be held in any way respon-
sible.
To alleviate the distressing condi-
tions Of the German people, nation
wide campaign is being made, espec-
tally in the larger cities. The Catholic
Church of America has undertaken to
direct a special clothing campaign.
Every citizen is asked to help in this
campaign regardless of creed. The
clothing thus obtained will be distri-
buted to the poor sufferers, regardless
IF creed. The things that are desired
ire given in the following list:
/. Flannels and cottons, underwear
stockings. socks, shirts, aprons, over
Ills. All for men and women and chill
dren.
2. Outer garments, suits, coats,
trousers, overcoats, hats and caps, es-
pecially for children, shawls (not hats
for women, winter gloves, wristlets,
capes and raincoats.
3. Linens and muslins, towels
handkerchiefs, blankets, comfortables
| sheets and pillow eases for the home
and the hospitals Also small linens
for babies.
4. Remnants Of wooden and cotton
goods, yarn, cotton thread, buttons
needles for sewing and knitting.
5. Shoes and overshoes for men,
women and children.
| 6. Money Some are willing to do
nate money rather than clothing
NOTE: All articles of clothing
brought to the collecting stationNmust
/ be CLEAN and STILL FIT TO WEAR
All articles are to be brought to the
collecting station located in the Gaff
ney building on the second floor The
first room to the right.
THIS CAMPAIGN begins JANU-
AIRY 2Sth and ends FEBRUARY 11th
1924.
! FELLOW-CITIZEINS! May you be
real generous in this campaign and
help those in distress. 1t is an act OF
humanity and of fraternal love. Any
further information may be had by tel
ephoning the Catholic Rectory.
