SEND WORD HOME | FROM THE FRONT Letters Recelved by Mrs. Damon and Mrs. Gleed | Thése are very busy days indeed at the Red Cross headquarters on Court street. With untiring zeal the women of New Britain are answering to the call for service in behalf of the sol- diers at the front. Cut and baste and sew, cut and baste and sew, that is the story at the Red Cross rooms, and the garments and supplies are being turned out by the dozen. . The local relief committee' is con- céentrating its energies upon those sup- plies for which there seems to be the greatest need and the work is done ac- cording to the orders from the nation- al headquarters. . The most careful econ! is exercized in the purchase of materials and the greatest care is used to great the most out of the ma- terial furnished. A most helpful spirit of co-opera- tion in ‘the great and necessary ‘work exists in this city and churches, so-- cleties, fraternal associations, clubs and individuals are all standing up to be counted for service in this fleld. But despite;the great quantities of re- lief material that are constantly being sent out it is a fact that no country has yet hid enough of any form of relief. If the need admitted to be great a year ago it takes no great stretch of the imagination to realize that it {s many times as greay today. There can be no halting in this great work of mercy and the women of New Britain are urged to continue the good work which they have so well begun. The . workrooms ' are delightfully cool and comfortable and there is al- ‘ways plenty to do for those who are willing to sacrifice a few hours of their time to help. \ Most interesting items find . their ‘way in the Red Cross rooms on Court street. Among them news of a lettér received by Mrs. R. J. Damon of Chestnut street from her hrother who, as an officer, is stationed gt Khartoum, Egypt. . It is of peculiar interest that the letter was written on Y. M. C. A. stationery. ~ For over one year this officer had been living in dugouts and he now enjoys the luxury of a bed and bath in barracks, due to the united efforts of Y. M. C. A. and Red Cross, Another item comes from Maple street, from Mrs. James Gleed, whose #son, Leonard, left New Britain two years ago to join a Canadian regiment, and ‘who is' now “somewhere - in France.” He wrote home that he had found a “Universal” meat chopper in & German trench which they had just taken. “:And.thus the thread of human in- terest runs: throughout the work. = BRIDGEPORT CUTS VACATION.
