Maynard reports an activity generally ap- preciated by the members. Every year the women gather up all their old woollens â€"- blankets, underwear, tops of socks, scarves, baby things, sweaters and woollen clothing â€"~ sorting it according to directions and deliver- ing it to a Convener appointed for the project. Each woman’s material is kept by itself and is shipped to a firm which manufactures it into blankets. The charge for the work is much less than the cost of a new blanket and the women are very well satisfied with the transâ€" action. Old woollens may also be made into auto robes, floor mats, men’s tartan shirts.
