'CRYING FOR CLOTHING
,
"The need' for clothing in -Paris is'
greater than-ever—please ask the people
at home, not to let us down," 'is the
message that Madame George Viinier
wife of . Major General George -Vanier,
D.S.O., the Canadian AmbasSador to -
France, sends back to Canada in supa
„port of the National Clothing Collection
Campaign sponSored by the Canadian
Allied Reliefwhich will tate place
from June 17th to 29th.
_Madame Vanier -has- been busy heepingt
the 'French poor with gifts iof clothing
and other things for ,many months,' and
she told a corresnondent in Paris that
some of the scenes in which 'she has
participated bave been almost heiAt-
breaking, especially when children have
sought for some clothing end none was
available.
"If the ,people at home could only
realize how great the need for clothing
Is in Paris, I am sure they ,woeld nkke
every effort teenut something aside to
help," she said, "Tkie gratitede of
ehose who receive the Canadian clothing
is very touchingaeone boy of ten who
had been unmoved .when told there was
nothing to replace the rag on his back
broke down and wept When a package
of clothing was found that fitted Jaime --
the first good clothing he had received
in five years." ,
' The •conditions that exist in France
are similar to those under which mil-
lions of men, women and children, in
other war-torn countries are suffering
—the big cry is for clothing, to keep,
them waxen, ,give them self-respect, and
encourage them to tackle the super-
human task of rehabilitation that •con-
freents them.

Staking is advisable for tall plants

not be conspicuous if driven in behind
