NATIONAL LEAGUE.
Your society made 730 pansements
last Wednesday. We think this is the
largest number we have ever made in
one afternoon. Counterpanes came in
by twos and threes. We will acknowl
edge them next Sunday with the finan
cial report we knew we would get
them if we asked for them, and we
have enough now to last almost
through next Wednesday.
- We felt so encouraged when we fln-
j ished work, at the prospects for our
exhibit on Friday. The colored chap
ter sent many r!ra looking packages
which we have not opened yet. but
which we expect to set in place for
the exhibit, and we almost know that
Seagate will have something worth
while, and our own work, Peter Coop
ers, look so "spick and span and our
heel rings like factory made and our
incontinent pads so elegantly comfort
able, and our rest cushions Just piling
full of sheer ease and thoughts of
mother's arms. Some so suddly and
oozy that the soldier boys who get
them will absolutely forget that xhey
are not at home in fact, they will al
ways be "at home" on an Aid cushion.
All this is very nice and we are
grateful to those who make it possi
ble, but just take a walk with the
workroom director and see the seamy
side a moment and you will not pon
der that the burden of responsibility
is so great that one staggers under it.
You see, we have four very active
units, Sunset, Greenfield, Brooklyn
and Gardenv City. In the winter we
will have Lingo City and , Delgado
again. Then there is the Seagate
chapter, which is self-supporting and
gives us its output, and our col
ored chapter which does the same. It
Is imperative to have work to give
them. They make body binder ban
dages, slippers for bandaged feet,
slings and cup covers, pillow ticks and
pillow cases. How do we stand with
regard to materials for these various
articles? Not one yard of homespun
for slings, not one yard for slippers,
not one yard for flannel body binders,
not a piece big enough for a pillow
case. Not a bit of material left! What
does one do under the circumstances?
Temporarily, one takes the scraps left
from the outing slippers and cuis thein
into bootees for Belgian and French
infants. We don't know why, we don't
know what itis a sign of, but most
women prefer to make surgical dress
ings to making baby clothes yet we
suppose that all soldiers were once
babies. Well, anyhow, we persuade
tant. Indeed, in our humble opinion,
them that the little articles are impor
it is a sacred duty to make the little
shoes, first, because the babies' feet
are cold, and second, because we have
the scraps, and third, because we hav
n't the goods to do anything else. Tem
porarily, as we said, we make use of
these things, and the bravest heart
.might quail looKing out over a room
full of earnest, hard working women
who seriously demand to work for the
Nation in her hour of peril and who
will be around presently when the im
mediate task is over asking for more
work, more work, and the men in
France stretching out eager hands,
bleeding hands, and begging with
boyish pleading, and hoping with
the confidence of men dying for those

done when people come to see the ex
hibit but will you have done a hand'
turn to hedp? Then Saturday, packing
day. It will take all day Ions', a
weary, back breaking day for one or
two persons; a blithesome, pleasant day
for twenty-five persons to pack boxes
with the articles which we have made
for France. Packing is not easy. First,
you go down street and beg boxes. You
beg as though you were asking - for
your own needs and you have never
begged before for anything. And you
get a box or two ,or maybe you don't
get any, and you walk up and down
and ask and beg until you are hot and
tired and don't feel very fresh for
packing. Then you go to the hall and
wrestle with crooked nails and lids
that don't fit and hammer your fin
gers, and, after three times as long as
it ought to take, you finish the box
and then mark it with lamp black.
Then you do that three or four times
and then begin to pack cartons. They
are mostly broken and you have to
mend them and use lots of cord and
get blisters tying the boxes up and
then typewritten descriptions have to
be made, and the contents of the boxes
noted twice, and the express office in
formed that they can get the boxes;
then you go down and open the hall
yourself, because you can't afford an
efficient servant, and you watch to see
that two men do the work so that th
steps will not be marred, and after the
last box is gone, you sweep up the
floor (5,000 square feet of space) and
say to yourself, "Tomorrow we will
begin all over f'gain, will we be able
to do as much?"
We have taken you into our con
dence. We do not want you to think
all is well when all is not well. We
are using some of your money for
drayage; couldn't you give us drayage?
We are using some of your money for
carpenter work; couldn't you give
some carpenter-time to your country?
We are giving some of' our strength
that we need as womenHo-Jobs that
men could do better; couldn't you
piece out some of our woman efforts
with your masculine strength? Of
course, if you can't, we shall go on just (
the same, begging boxes, sweeping,
and so on, because we do rit cheerfully
for our country, but we just thought
if you knew and it's your country,
too and maybe your son will be the
first to need the pillows, and, well
come to the exhibit Friday and see if
you think it's worth while, anyhow.

according to Mr. L. F. Gore, for the re
mainder of the season, teams will be
picked from the best players remain
ing, in the city, and games between
these teams will be arranged, an
nouncements of which will be made
later.
A game is scheduled for 3:30 on the

No admission will be charged, but a
collection will be taken and all will
be expected to contribute something.
additional empty freight cars have

railroads' war board. Nearly 2,500 of
these cars have been placed in grain

"Congress made a new departure
when it appropriated funds fo rthese

a naval base has been located not on

that the plant belocated with reference
to safety in time of war and the naval
board construed this to be at least two
hundred miles inland.

n't we stretch the "littles" a little?!
We had a collection of $40 this after
noon; three weeks before cotton and
gauze and homespun and outing and
sheeting and everything else on God's
green earth was cheaper than it is
today. We said we could not keep our
work up on less than fifty dollars a
We were getting fifty dollars. We
cannot do it now on less than sixty
dollars and we are getting just over
forty. It is your work, if you do not
care to have it maintain the standard
that has made us all so proud, why, of
course, that is your decision but If
you do feel an intense longing to do
as much in the future as in the past,
you will have to do something more
than you are doing tohelp. We wish,
wish with all our hearts, that our col
lectors would make weekly visits. We
know of so many women who would
give two cents a week instead of one
cent if approached weekly. If there
is anywhere in town a Block Messen
ger who reads this and feels that she
is not doing her part, let her remem
ber that in her hands and in hers
alone, rests this entire work. We do
not lcnow for certain, but we believe
that one hundred messengers failed to
report today. If they had come in
with ten cents apiece we would have
been the better by ten dollars. It Is
the littles that count. FerhaDS a dis
