Main Street FREEPORT, N. Y. RED CROSS NOTES Freeport is doing splendid work for i Red Cross and last week had two all day meetings at the rooms when many workers brought their luncheon and stayed from 10 a. m. to 5 p. m., but when we realize the pressing need for supplies of all descriptions to care for our soldiers, who are to be sent to the front, we feel that i t ‘is the responsi bility of everyone to give as much time as possible each week toward making these suplies. WofJ has come from Washington that in the United States there are but 40 hospital units, each having a capacity of 500 beds, making a total of 20,000. The inadequacy of this siynll equipmenl is apparent when v. e realize that in a short time 500,000 of our men will be at the frwg.. We must maki our—riien Teel confident that when sick or wounded they will ! be properly cared for. This is just as much our responsibility as is the responsibility of our men at the front. Washington Headquarter; appeal for: 350.000 bathrobes 100.000 bed sticks 450,00()„suit3 of pajamas 650.000 hospital shirts 800.000 pairs socks 250.000 ward slippers 700.000 handkerchiefs 300.000 shoulder wraps This means we must redouble our efforts and that more new workers are absolutely necessary. The rooms in the Olive building arc o;x’n every day from 10 a. m. to 12 m., and from 2 i). m. to 5 p. m., also Thursday evening^.
