60,000 Dressings
Made By Franklin Women
Since Jan. 12; Service
Pins Awarded
Mrs. James E. Perry, chairman
of production of Macon county
Red Cross chapter, has reported
that 60t000 surgical dressings have
h?een made in the Franklin work
room since January 12. "Of these
all have been shipped except 25,
200 which are awaiting shipping
directions", said Mrs. Perry.
"While our ,;women have done
splendidly and the record of the
chapter for production is good for
the number of women working, we
are in great need of more workers
to produce the chapter's wartime
quota. Ther.e is need of more
women" who .are willing to make
sacrifice of time from other duties
or of their leisure time to do this
work of mercy to help our wound
ed on the battlefronts", she added.
It is hoped that there will be
hearty re&ponse to Mrs. Perry's
appeal. There are already some
ibjusin^ess women who work all day
and yet find time to put in a
few hours a week. There are many
mothers and housewives who could
giye time each week if th,ey realiz
ed the great need oi the soldiers?
t!l<?r own sons and neighbors per
haps, who are suffering wherever
the flag flies.
