WARM GARMENTS FOR REFUGEES Red Cross Women to Help in Big Project During Winter Further recognition of the splendid service given by workers of the Har risburg chapter, American Red Cross was given yesterday in a letter from the Pennsylvania-Deluware Division headquarters, assigning to the local chapter another large allotment of work to be accomplished. The new order is for more than 3,000 gar ments for refugees. To accomplish this task as soon as possible Miss Anne McCormiek, director of the Woman's Bureau this morning Is sued an. appeal for more workers. "The workrooms will be closed for the entire coming week, beginning next Monday," said Miss McCormiek. '"The next week wo will want every old worker buck and all others who can possibly come." The new Bed Cross order signed by officials of the Pennsylvania- Delaware Division, asks that the following articles be made by the local chapter's volunteer workers: 500 children's dresses. 500 Middle blouses. 500* boys' shirts. * 1,000 pinafores. 524 petticoats. It is probable, although It' is not definitely known, that these gar ments will be sent to starving and freezing refugees in France and Belgium. Despite strenuous efforts put forth by relief workers, the suf fering among these people has not yet been alleviated to any great ex tent and official reports say it is im perative that aid be rushed to them at once. Workers are asked by Miss Mc- Cormiek to register at once in the Red Cross headquarters in the base t of the Public Library for im j mediate service. Rev. Dr. I. A.

We have been asked to fconserve food, fuel and clothing, but tho lat est and most urgent plea from tho Government is to conserve child-life. The war and the influenza epidemic have made terrible inroads upon our t>opu!ation, and health authorities are urging the people to work with their help to make each little life a sturdy, healthy one. One of the most successful com mittees working towards this end Is the Child Welfare Committee of Cumberand County, of which Mrs. John E. Sweeny is chairman. When all subscriptions are In, this com mittee will have raised $1,400 to cover tuition, expenses and salary of a nurse who shall have a month's special training under Miss Pucker, of Philadelphia, who is an expert in this work. She will then direct and instruct those women of each district committee who wish to help the health of their individual com munity. She will also be at the serv ice of any one who lives In the coun ty and Jn sickness cannot obtain a nurse. ' This committee has about com pleted a census of all orphaned chil dren In the community for the pur pose of finding homes for them and finding If any of them nee'd any extra nourishment/ to prevent contraction of tuberculosis. This is a big work and a necessary one. Mrs. Sweeny urges that every one who has not sent in their sub scription should do so at once.

Soldiers Ask Trimmings For Christmas Tree Soldiers at the Army Reserve Depot at New are anx ious to make their Christmas as cheery as possible. They of course want a Christmas tree first of all. It was an easy matter for the sturdy boyß to secure a tree, but in order to make it a real Christmas tree lots of shining tinsel, sparkling icicles and glowing balls are needed. The men told their story to Mrs. Gilbert at the Red Cross headquarters, and through her they are asking tho people of this city to help make their Christmas as joyous as it can be made. Any one who wishes to contribute Christmas tree trimmings for the tree should leave them at Red Cross headquarters this week.

The return and expected return of a large number of former em ployes from United States service will satisfactorily relieve the scaie ity of male labor owing to war con ditions, which made the employment of women for many positions neces sary. Soldiers Get Jobs . On some of tho divisions of the Pennsylvania system women have already been relieved from a num ber of positions. The return of for mer soldiers and sailors lias been rather inconsiderable here, and the few that have already returned to work have not created such a sur plus of labor that any women have been discharged. It is only a question of a few months, however, it is believed, until it will become necessary to place some female employes on the reserve list. The return to service of sol dier employes, as yet inconsiderable, will increase steadily during the next several months, and will oper ate to-create a big surplus of labor. Many to Have Places Some women will have to be laJd oft when this condition arises. At tho employment bureau it vas said to-day that women now filling posi tions formerly held by men and for whom no other work can bo found, will be placed on tho reservo list. But many more women then for merly will remain ,n the railroad service. In the several yards and offices in Harrisburg and vicinity many women are filling clerical poscitions for merly held by men. A large num ber of these may bo sxpn "t( 0. to re main on the railroad employment roll. Since the commencement ct the war most clerical positions have had eight-hour days instead of twelve-hour days. This will make necessary a greater number of em ployes. In some instances, it is in timated by officials, tho women have made themselves so useful chat they will be retained in tlic,c positions, regardless of the number of men who return, and just as good posi tions will be found for tho returning employes. . This especially applies to women Ailing clerical positions, hut the al almost general eight-hour day will make necessary the mention of women in numerous otlio* positions. It is almost certain that some will •>0 retained In all of tho several branches of the service In which they are now employed in addition to clerical work. Included will be train callers, car cleaners, watch women and others. $224 IN LIBERTY BONDS FOR EACH RESIDENT [Continued from First Page.] $3,088,100: second, $4,242,000; third, $4,009,850; and fourth, $6,- 960,100.

Savings Hardly Touched For the most part, the Bonds were purchased by the rank and file of the people, and without draw ing on the resources of their savings accounts. They .represent in many cases a systematic saving which be gan with the first bond issue. It is generally conceded that the bonds constitute an enormous saving which never would have taken place without the war. This huge sum in Liberty Bonds, possessed by the people of the city, is recognized as a potent force in the prevention of hardship should a period of indus trial depression follow the signing of peace and /the demobilization of the armies.
