RED CROSS COLUMN.
The surgical dressing work of the
local chapter has been most wisely
placed under the charge of Miss Elise j
Hooker, who is managing the duties
encumbent on her position with the
care and efficiency of one long ex
perienced in the practice. The sewing j.
room is under the supervision of Mrs. |
W. A. Billingsley, who has been active
in Red Cross circles for a number of
years.
—o—
The Southwestern Division of the (
Red Cross is behind on shipments of
supplies and, in order to double the
present output, it has been decided to
keep the local work rooms open ev- .
ery .day in the week. Hours 10 a. m. (i
to 5 p. m. The chapter needs volun- (
teers—it needs women to help make
badages, garments, and other sup
plies which are being furnished by
these local stations. It is public work
open to all—just like one big family
—all working for the great good that
they are accomplishing. Do not hold
back if it is in your power to spare
some of your time to help. The work
rooms are located at the First Na
tional Bank and Miss Hooker and Mrs.
Billingsley will gladly assign you to
duties and assist you in every way if
you will come. Jt is a duty that no
one should avoid. While you may only
make several bandages, still, one of
those might be the means of saving
some big-hearted soldier boy’s life.
Everyone ought to help the boys who
are getting out in mud and blood up
to their chins to hold: back a menace
that threatens to deprive us of all
j that is good in life.
APPRECIATES smileage book.
The following letter from Owen
Pettet, a member of former Company
E. has been received by one of our
business men, who sent the young
man a Smileage book last week.
Camp Beauregard, La.,
Feb. 7, 191.8.
Dear Friend, Mr. Rushton,
I received your letter this p. m. and
you don’t know how much I enjoyed
it. I had just come in from the Rifle
Range and was looking for a letter or
so and when I opened yours I knew
that I had friends in Newport.
Well, Mr. Rushton, since they bust
ed the old company up I never get to
see any of the boys. Sure hated to
leave the boys and officers, but I am
satisfied where I am. We have fine
officers, and one thing is certain Co.
B. is the best company in the regi
ment. I may be covering a good deal
of territory, but I think so, and so do
the rest of the boys.
Mr. Rushton, I thank you very
much for the Smileage Book. I guess
you know that-we were under quanan
tine and have been for three months.
Sure will be glad when we can go
from company to company and also
to town.
Call to quarters has been sounded
and I am just a little sleepy, as we
have to be up at 5 a. m., so will close,
hoping to hear from you again. With
my best regards I remain your
friend, ,
Owen Pettet.
