AU their cash is put out in food laving nothing with which to purchase even the bags to carry the food. These Camp Fire girls gave two-way service by making six bags, 12 by 14 inches, with a ' drawstring top and only one sesm; the bag can then be opened up and used as the sleeve of a gar ment or an article of baby clothing.
