If the work done by Red Cross Volunteers in Norih Carolina were summed up in terms of hours at the prevailing wages, the result would do credit to a large territory. In the last year, the women who have given of their time in public sendee in this state produced a total of 1,047 gar ments for the needy, in addition to 46(512 surgical dressings. These figures relate to only one (■ branch of volunteer activity. Besides making of garments and surgical bandages, these Red Cross volunteers knit sweaters and caps for veterans in hospitals, who are not provided with these comforts by the govern ment. Volunteers keep records for and help nurses in the weighing at child welfare stations. They put up jams and jellies for the sick, drive motorcars to bring crippled children and others to hospitals and to give convalescing veterans out of door trips, and perform other transporta tion services for the chapter. They type books in Braille for the librar ies of the blind. They act as hostess es for hospital recreation services and write letters for the sick. In time or disaster,', these volunteers a.re active in every form of service. In the last year, Red Cross volun teers throughout the country made 210,088 garments, prepared 3,244 ar ticles; for emergency closets of Red Cross chapters, made 2,959,304 surgi cal dressings, served over 20,000 per sons in canteens, answered 29,543 calls for the motor corps, made 40,- 380 Christmas bags for men on mil itary service in tbe American insu lar possessions, and hand-copied 191,- 732 pages of Braille for libraries of ^J^he blind, besides duplicating 36,214 "Pages o f Braille by the Gearin pro- —^fess. ^vThe Red Springs Red Cross chap ter will have roll call Armistice Day, •November 11, and invites all the peo ple to join, or to renew their mem- ■ bership for another year. As the dfemandq for its services multiply, there is increasing need for a larger membership. As the local chapter missed their roll call last year an enthusiastic response is urged.
