Clothing that you may consider old can bring new life to some suffering person to whom war brought despair and destitution. Goal of the Victory Clothing Collection is 100,000,000 garments, plus shoes and bedding. If your contribution seems negligible, bear this in mind: Every garment you give means one more human being saved from cold or sickness Mr possibly death. About 25,000,000 people overseas received clothing collected from Americans last spring. But for every person clothed so far, a dozen more remain virtually threadbare. Your spare clothing will be distributed free, without dis crimination, to the victims of Naii and Jap oppression in Europe, the Philippines, and the Far East. In 'most any town or city overseas there is someone who can translate English. You can help build international friendship by writing a simple, friendly letter to pin to the clothing you contribute. Dig into your attics, trunks, and closets today . . . dig out all the clothing you can spare . . . take it to your local collection depot now.
