Bundles for America Needs Knitters

Bundles for America has received a new shipment of navy and khaki yarns and more volunteer knitters are needed, according to Mrs. William Macgregor Morris, knitting chairman. The hot weather “bundles” slogan is “don't wait for cooler weather to knit for our boys who are fighting for us this summer.” Mrs. R. Hartley Sherwood, “bundles” president, has explained that the government cannot supply all the knitted garments needed by our servicemen because factories are needed for war supplies; hand knit garments are more comfortable and wear longer.

|Food Poisoning {May Attack |At Any Season

By JANE STAFFORD . Science Service Staff Writer THE APPROACH OF summer should serve as a reminder to be on guard against food poisoning. This sickness can attack at any season, but many a community picnic has been followed by an outbreak. The most common of all types of food poisoning, or ptomaine poisoning as it often is called, is caused by germs of the staphylococcus family. These germs are carried in the throats of healthy people, are found in great numbers in the post-nasal discharges following
