Red Cross Notes
A RECORD 520 TAM MAKING
00 Monday of this week a group or wo-

three 11 -qt, baskets of plume for jam. On
Tuesday 0 group of women from the Wo-
men's Institute and Red Cross made 124 lbs,
of plum Jaen from 1 p.m, to 9 p.m. This is
without a doubt a record for one day'e work
in all our four years of jam making. When

all the credit and thanks that ean be shown
