TYPICAL SCENE OF THE sewing room of the Union county chapter of the American Red Cross
where production has not ceased in mite of the w ar end. In the picture are, left to right, Mrs. Mae
Moran, chairman of the sewing committee, Mrs. A 1 Andrews, Miss Margaret Newlin, Mrs. Fred
Gehring, sr., chairman oi production, and Mrs. Julia Heiiler.fhe end of the war has not abated
the amount of work by the production department. Mrs. Moran has just received 1,000 yards of
white material which is to be made into garments for the people of the Philippines. A report
of this department through the war years shows many women have given of their lime and
energy. There has also been much financial assistance. Money raised throughout the county fi
nanced 2,000 soldier kits filled with comfort articles. Soldiers and sailors hav received moire
than 1.000 garments made by the women of this county. Included were knee bands, socks, hel
mets, sweaters and mufflers. For war relief sewing, which consists of garments made for the civil

piecos. The scraps left from cutting were utilized for quilts and 225 were made and shipped. Scraps
were used for baby blankets. Five thousand three hundred and thirty-two hospitals comfort articles
have been shipped.

New stokers arc now installed
in the coal bins at the college.

of keeping hoppers filled. For
many years coal had to be car
ried for a considerable distance
from the bin to the hoppers. The
late Perry Caldwell, former su
perintendent of buildings and
grounds at one time figured he
had made enough trips from the
bin to the hopper to have carried
one shovel of coal from here to
Germany. The bins were later
moved near the furnace so that
the work was lessened a Ereat
