and brutal win mnohlnerv which counts
Its victims not b.v the hundreds, but bv
the thousands, so thai bandages and more
bandages are the vital needs of the hour.
It Is hard to Imagine that In the eaily
stages of the wii-. when the demands on the
Red Crosn weie so enormous, parts of tne
ued bandages had to be washed and ster
lllred and used ngaln Of murse the splen
did vvotk of American women in the last
jear has done much to alleviate this condi

deinonsttnte.
