Another important gift was volun teered yesterday by M. fiichel. - This is a thermos motor restaurant for six people. It includes all the necessities and luxuries for an automobile outing, and is valued at at least $100, although . the auction committee hopes that it .will bring even more, since the money is to go to the Red Cross. A magnificent gold Knights Templar pin was donated to the Red Cross auc tion yesterday by a Portland woman. "My husband who owned it is dead," she said. "My present husband is not a Sir Knight." "So I thought it best to give the pin to the Red Cross." A gift that was appreciated by the committee came recently from Mrs. J. Westberg, of San Francisco, a resi dent at the Ramapo Hotel.
