This Year Bigger and Better
Than Ever
The Rummage' Sale sponsored by
the Ladies' Auxiliary to Wingham
Hospital, which was held in the Arm-
ouries on Saturday afternoon, was big-
ger and better than ever, Even though
these sales have been carried on
spring and fall for several years,. and
it might be thought that the homes in
Wingham were becoming bare of sale-
able articles, this effort was the larg-
est yet. The total proceeds were
$617,75. Long before two o'clock,
large crowds had gathered outside the
armouries, and when the doors opened,
the room was at once filled with eager
buyers, Forty-five volunteer sales-
women disposed of the articles. Be-
fore four o'clock practically every-
thing had gone, another Rummage
Sale had passed into history, and the
Auxiliary were starting to plan for
the one to come in the Fall.
To escape from the crowds many
went upstairs and enjoyed the after-
noon tea \vhich was served by the soc-
ial committee.
All day Friday donations were pour-
ing in, and' a large group of women
spent the afternoon and evening, sort-
ing and marking, putting each article
in its own department, There was no
limit to the variety and value of things
received, everything from a fur coat to
a long white christening robe and from
a leather bound copy of Shakespeare
to a baby's rattle.
These sales have gained such a rep-
utation that people come from great
distances to secure their share of the
bargains. The money is used. by the
Auxiliary to purchase bedding, 'dishes,
nursery supplies etc, for the hospital.
Without the co-operation of the whole
community this event would not have
