Fast Production Pace Set In Kits and Bandages Here

By JOAN HIXON

THE PRODUCTION CENTER of the Red Cross in the war memorial building is the story behind the boys over there. Women with sons, daughters and husbands in the service have worked thousands of hours for them. 5 Yesterday was a typical day at the center. ‘Mrs. W. R. Sinclair and Mrs. R. J. Sinclair, who are second cousins, were packing kit bags which are distribtued to each man as he embarks. Mrs. Frank Stratton was sewing the bags on a sewing machine. They may substitute for shaving aprons. Inspecting the bags before they were to be shipped were Mrs. Eli Lilly and Miss Elizabeth Schrock. In another corner of the room Mrs. C. H. Pier was making Red Cross flags to be flown during the present war fund drive. Mrs. ©. L. Bogert, sewing chairman, and Mrs. F, R. Cornell, production manager, were cutting out draperies for the visitors’ service house at Ft. Harrison and the
