Every chapter has its chance to make good on this call for help. Give full publicity—including cable. ALBERT W. STAUB, Director, Atlantic Division. The cable referred to reads as fol- lowt “Ausust 10, 1917. To American Red Cross: Last winter broke record for cold and misery among people here.” Inex- pressibly dread coming winter finding us without supplies to meet situation. Urge you on behalf of our soldiers and those of our allies who will suffer in their frozen trenches, and al%o housands of French and Belgian r: ugees and repatriates being returned through Switzeriand to France.

Hall, Otis street, a postal card bearing her name and address and in- dicating the article which she prefers to make. If preferred, this informa- tion may be left in person at the Service League, Monday, Wednesday or Friday morning. The names of those able to knit socks are especial- ly desired. The women of Norwich have never failed to do their share in any great work, and those to whom this appeal has come are confident of a wide and Zenerous response. The Woman's Bureau of the Red Cross, under the direction of Miss Florence M. Marshall, has prepared directions with complete information as to the knitted articles asked for by Major Murpby. These wil be avail- able to any woman who applies to the nearest Red Cross chapter. They tell exactly how to obtain yarn, detailed knitting instructions, and where o send the garments for immediate ship- ment to France. That the work should 2o forward as rapidly_as possible, and with no chance of “fallinz down,” an allotment of the great task is being made by the national authorities. to the thir- teen division managers of the Red Cross who direct its administration inder' the mew decentralization plan. The division managers. when the: aave been informed of their territory’s total share, will divide the work among the chapters in their divisions.
