I think it extremely nice of the Red Shied Peacetime Auxiliary to want to clothe a child here. It is a very generous offer of which thousands would love to take advantage. "I talked the matter over with a couple of school teachers and visiting nurses, and they all thought it a wondedul pIan, but to favcir one child above all the others and give one everything and the rest nothing, that wouldn't do either. Then there was talk about making night dresses and underwear for sick children in hos- The regular monthly meeting of Clinton Women's Institute was held in the,Board Room of the Agricultural Office on Thursday afternoon last, with a good attendance. The meeting opened with the usual exercises, the singing of the Ode and Lord's Prayer, repeated in unison. This was the aimed ineeting and the reports given were most en- couraging showing the Institute to be in a healthy. condition. The war work committee convener's report seemed outstanding. There had been 291 •articles completed during the year. •A hearty vote of thanks was tendered the retiring officers. The roll call was answered by the pay- ment of fees, It was decided to take advantage of one of the short. courses offered by the department. Following the meeting: 'the ladies went to .the Presbyterian • Church where, they sat down to the annual Sunshine Banquet. -This is an annual event for .membere only.

My husband who is government representative for social affairs in the Piovinee often has to visit these people living here in the neat settlements who are very poor. When the auto drove up, children, in tatters, poured out of all the housed, sheds and hovels by packs and bushels, and stormed the car.They are miserably poor, need houses, clothing, furniture and everything. Their needs are, many, still the tex- tile being manufactured here is be- ing exported far the sake of getting money into the country and we are all walking around in rags. "Now what would you thing about sewing for a pair of twin girls about seven or eight years old, Pauline and Engeline' Nan Pelt. After thinking the inatter over and discussing. it with several people we all. decided it would be lovely if you could make them some clothes. At the present time it's not oly' the poor who have no clothes for their children, but peo- ole in our circumstances are just as badly off. It's not a case of money, there is nothing to be bought, al- though we've been promised textile coupons in May. "Their history is as follows: They were born just before the war, the last of six children. Their father was a Major in the Dutch Army and for years has been a prisoner in Germany. 'Their mother worked with the underground and was arrested a couple of months before the liberation. The four children that were left had to be distributed among church mem- bers (Mennonites) and Germans with their women moved into the house. "After liberation, the mother was free and the father came home, too, but before leaving the Germans had emptied the linen and clothes closets, took all the silver and what else they could in their haste, leaving things in an awful mess. It was .all toe much "for the mother and ane had te be put into a sanatorium for nervous patients where she still is. The father now lives in the house with the child- ren and their old maid. The twins, especially. are desperatelyin need of clothes. They have next to nothing and an unhappy homelife, as the fath- er has also been soured by all his troubles. We would all 'like to belt, but we cannot • • The ladies-. of the church would 'like to sew but have no materials so we would all apprec- iate it ever so much if you could help, be it ever to little and ;your work would be valued not only by the family but by all of us. "I hope in a day or twn to send a snapshot of the twins and I shall also take their height. 'Your first package would he a wonderful •surprise for the' mother and I know help along her re- covory. There is just, one other thing! Perhaps we will have .to pay import duty on new things 'but that doesn't matter. We're glad to do that if we get something. But in any case you can state clearly on the package, Relief Goods from Red Shield; etc. Worn clothing is just as welcome and We can use any amount. "Our unmarried mothers are also a problem if anyone should have any baby clothes. They say if we ever have to be liberated agent; we'll have our own Canadian Army on the ground. I have one young W0111011 I am befriending and still hope the man in Saskatoon will marry her, • "Also, do you know anyone who is interested in trading flower bulbs for fat? We have a shortage of fat and that is all we have to trade. In order to ovoid starvation we took re- fuge in a boarding house here up north and can't get out as there is Oto shortage of houses. The landlady needs fat, any kind, bacon, beef suet, lard, vegetable, anything. Beef suet, the Dutch think is "ritzy,", In the war it sold for 90 guilders a ponnd. In normal times it cost 65 cents. Many people would like to tradefat for bulbs. "r hope you are convinced by now that we were delighted with your let- ter and offer to co-operate. Do thank all the fellow -members heartily. We'll be lookingforward to hearing from you again,.' Very sincerely yours,' • (Signed1—(Mrs. E. N. , Jessie S,. Hannema.
