RED GROSS TEACHES THRIFT PRINCIPLES Women Shown How to Convert Sliflhtly Worn Clothing Into Attractive Garments. Conservation Is playing a big part In the work of the Atlantic Division Chapters of the Red Cross these days. Thrift that deals a telllng%low at the cost of living apd at the same time enables the loyal Red Cross women workers to assist In clothing the needy children of America and Europe Is being practiced. Present , fondltlons in Europe make Imperative for Red Cross workrooms to Increase their production. There are in the famine and disease swept regions of Central Europe wide areas where rags constitute covering for millions of fatherless children. Winter Is coming to Increase their suffering unless warm clothing Is sent overseas, and the women of the Atlantic Division are working hard to maintain the division's^ record. One of the many problems the Red Cross had to face was how to continue production In the face of the necessity for conservation of material. A practical solution was found In the remodeling of worn clothing into warm garmenu, and this U exactly what Is being done. Old nits and dresses that have outlived •' air usefulness are be ing ripped ai Jt. cleaned and cut over on practical patterns. Sometimes only a yard or so of good cloth is left after the worn pieces have been thrown away, but It is possible by careful piecing to make an entire garment for a child out of what seems at the first glance to be merely a useless remnant. For instance, a pair of rompers for a two-year-old may be made from the front width of an old skirt. Tiny skirts are evolved* from a woman'e placarded 1 coat, and sometimes a whole costume 1 Is fashioned from an old-time ' garment which has such voluminous widths of material that the frayed parts may be cut off and still enough "left for a one-piece dress. Members of the Red Cross can help in this humane .work by renewing their j membership /dnrlng the Annual Roll ! Call.' November 14 to 20. and by Inducing their frleuds t A join the organisation.
