"The August quota will be larger than those assigned in the First World War and may be the largest single production task the Red Cross has ever undertaken.

Second hand clothing has been donated by Wildwood Branch and Middle Township has donated S1&.00 to buy equipment. The Cape May Branch this week thanked all who are helping to set up this closet.
