VICTORY CLOTHING
COLLECTION
January 1-31, 1946
“Ask yourself What
can I spare that they can!
wear?”
In the name of humanity!
we must all spare what we'
can of our plenty. Every-)
thing is needed over there—■
winter clothes and summer
clothes, children’s and in
fants’ clothes, frayed blan
kets, worn sheets, sweaters
coats, even remnants and
faded draperies and shoes!
Tie them together with'
strings so the mates won’t
be lost.
Without protective cloth-'
ing they are suffering and
dying from exposure and I
disease. Without clothing
they cannot start to work—
to plant new crops—to re
build burned mills and fac-'
tories—to tend their mach-i
ines. In some countries 95
per cent of the homes were
destroyed completely.
In the spring of 1945, we I
spared enough clothing forj
twenty-five million people,)
but‘millions of others still
lack clothing. So go throu
gh your closets and tie up
a bundle and take them to
your nearest school or the
Club House in Burnsville
on each Saturday after
noon of this month and on
the 31st or to a member of
the home demonstration
club in your community.
Then write a friendly mes
sage—won’t you—to g o
along with your gift? A
letter to warm the spirit.
The Club House will be
open on the following dates
to receive Victory Clothing
Saturday, Jan. 19, 2 to 5.
