Hello Homemakers! It’s wea

another stick of wood on the
fire and make yourself comfor

thread. .Yes, you may be glad
that you are “hemmed in” dur

a lot of patching can be done
without your fussy aunt watch
ing to see how well you are do
ing it! Actually if you have a
sewing machine you can do the
job in half the time since the
first stitching can be zipped over
—then fold the old part neatly
under by hand. It’s a better
looking job done this way.

OUR TOMORROWS depend on what happens to the world’s childr en TODAY. In ruined
lands around the globe there are millions of them in misery — scrambling for shreds of
food on garbage dumps, shivering in rags. On the continent of Europe, half the children
born since the war are already dead of malnutrition. Those who survive — there and else
where — are desperately in need of food and clothing. They need schooling, too, for their
neglected minds grow as sick as their withered bodies.
They are the future ...
if they are not saved, oar worfd is lost!
Canadian Appeal for Children is how conducting
its campaign to meet the challenge of these
desperate and immediate needs. This is a cam
paign by the people of Canada, with a minimum
objective of $10,000,000 to provide food, clothing
and school supplies for the children—safeguard
the health of expectant and nursing mothers —
in devastated lands around the world.
