Bur- “leigh County chapter have received a “number of pairs of socks during the ‘past. month which DO NOT meet re- quirements. The allotment for the chapter is 750 pairs, and out of that number 65 pairs have had to be mde/ over in the work room. ‘Most of the difficulty arises from the fact that the socks are too small. All socks must measure: FOOT: Length 11 1-2 inches, ‘but 10 1-2 to 12 1-2 is acceptable. LEG: Length 14 inches, circumfer- ence 8 inches. ‘CUFF: Circumference, unstretched, 6 inches; streached to fullest extent, 13 1-2 inches. Eleven and one-half inches is the de- sired length of the foot of the sock, but 10 1-2 and 12 1-2 sizes will be accepted, but no sock under 10 1-2 inches will be accepted hereafter. The leg measurement must be 14 inches in length and 4 Anches 1 in width. New “Dughter. iA daughter was ‘born today at St. Alexius hospital to Mr..and Mrs. S. J. Stenskauekt, At.
