(Wei 1 ' f ; In the spring of 1917 a community: canning club was organizedr -and cannery was' erected on the main street of Fletcher. This was open every day in the week except Mon day and Saturday, with competent women in charge each day. The women of the community brought their fruit and vegetables here to can4 them. We have no,, record of. -the number of cans filled during the sum men The two thousand tin cans bought by the club were filled long before the close of the season. Quite a little was done toward the conserva tion of food. In the early summer of 1917 an auxiliary of the Hendersonville chap ter of the Red Cross was organized. In part we organized before Hender sonville had a chapter and intended to be an auxiliary of the Asheville chapter, but waitad for Henderson ville to organize f o that we could be long to a home covinty. During the summer we raised $57.46 in funds and quite , a littb sewing. In the Christmas drive we raised our mem bership to seventy-one. : For several months we have been sewing one af ternoon each week and averaged two dozen bed shirts a week. We have also done quite a good deal of knit ting. In our township we have a commit tee in charge of the sale of thrift, stamps. On this committee we have a woman representative from the" Red Cross and one f roin the Woman's Betterment,1 besides the lady school teacher of the township. The Wo man's Betterment has bought two War Saving certificates and each member has pledged herself to buy all that she can during the year. They are to earn this money themslves in some way. At a late .meeting they re ported that they had earned money for this purpose by selling tatting embroidery, by doing dress making, by selling honey, eggs, butter, milk, vegetables. One woman had earned money by doing some work in book keeping for one of the local stores. Besides their work in buying Thrift Stamps and promoting the sale of them the Woman's-Betterment' has made several layettes for the Bel gium refuge babies. . 4 : Z - We hope to do more during the canning season.
