More Volunteers For
Red Cross Are Sought
Volunteer Work Gives BritOns
Three Garments for Cost of One

Production workers in the Red
Cross chapters are providing bombed
out Britons with two or three garm-
ents for the cost of one bought at
wholesale prices, according to Colin
Herrle, director Of war relief produc-
ton, and more volunteer workers are
still being sought by the county Red
Cross chapter to keep up this stand
ard for the Allies.
Mr.. Herrle reported that samples
of Red Cross volunteer-m gar
ments were submitted for valuation to
three clothing concerns and it was
learned that garment which cost the
Red Cross $1.00 in material, was
worth $500 to $500 on a wholesale
commercial basis. Mr. Herrle added
that during the past two months ship
ments of clothing to Britain had been
moving along splendidly
But the plea is still for more vol
unteer workers in every part of the
county to fill the enormous quota of
garments to be reached within the
next eight or ten months, and groups
or individuals are asked to get in
touch with Mrs. E. 2. Tower or Mrs.
E. |. Baumgartner. Mrs. Tower an

projects for the county.
Mrs. w. W. Dewitt, president of
