LOCAL FEDERATION REPORT
SHOWS EXTENT OF WORK
TfHanrer Pearsall Expresses Pnbt ' Hcly Thtmks to Residents and Co-Workers.
MotherH love to make dainty llnery for their little Rirls nt nny sea.son of the year, hut more especially now, nt the senson when Indoors la more In¬ viting than outdoors. In the North the long winter evenings must be fllletl somehow and leisurely sewing un pret¬ ty white clothos Is ns much pastime as work. Mnny mothers count on Jan- nary and Februnry as the time for get¬ ting the little one's sewing out of the way, before the approach of Enwter <»mpels them to give time and attention to the more important needs of them¬ selves.
In January dry goods stores put on their annual sales of white goods and present their new-season models In children's frocks — assortments are complete and prices low, so the mer¬ chant plays into the hands of those patrons who count on making up lin¬ gerie and children's clothes at this tlma Styles for little folks do not change much; there Is so little room for improvement In them. We all like to see the same sheer white fabrics trimmed with the same simple needle¬ work, or flne embroidery and lingerie laces that we have come to n.ssoclate always with babyhood.
Above a dresH-up frock for the sm^all lady of three nr four years la pictured. It Is made of fine l);iliste nnd nnrrow val lace. This is a frock for state oc- rnslons, like fi blrtltdiiy party, in the life of the little miss. It Ls, therefore. Indulged In more lace and embroidery than any other of her belongings..
It Is cut with a long body and a short, full skirt, scalloped at the bot¬ tom. There is a str.-tlght piece of flne Bwl.sH embroidery down the front set In with lace Insertion nt each side. Little Jacket fronts are set on at each side with val edging set In a scant ruf¬ fle on the edge.s.
Rosettes of pink sntln ribbon at each side of the front emphasize tbe begin¬ ning and the end of a skirt sash that marks the Joining of the waist and skirt. A wide soft ribbon makes this sash a very splendid affair that matches up virell with the hat of pink ribbon and white lace. There Is a miniature rose on its brim. No won¬ der the little one is calmly conscious of being well dressed!

Mr. Sidney H. Swewy, President Freeport Federation, Freeport, N. Y. Dear Mr, Swezey:
I herewith submit to you my re¬ port in connection with the work at our Army and Navy Headquarters. Because of the mixiing of duties of the treasurer and the chairman of the committee on accommodations and en¬ tertainment it is rather difFicult to .Submit it all in one report.
P'ir.st, I wish to express my appre¬ ciation of my neighbors, the people of F'reeport, and incidentally Baldwin. Merrick, Bellmore, Seaford and Wan¬ tagh. It was well worth While to en¬ gage in the work if just for the priv¬ ilege of iretting better acquainted with each other.
It would be impossible to mention all or part of those who aided in the multitude of ways, contributions of books, mafrazines, phonograph, candy, refreshments, carpet and oilcloth, car¬ penter work, etc., hut I would speak of the great work done by Mrs. Fred I K, Story, chairman of the Women's Committee serving refreshments at j Headquarters each Saturday and Sun- \ (lay night. It was predicted that thel interest would run down, but for 15 wci'l<s .Mr.s, Story and her splendid assistants were at the work rejrular- | ly, serving' from '20(1 lo OOO of the | lioys from the neighboring camp, and sUying fre<iuently till after midnight.
II would also e xrpessaaljllifF.AO I would also express my apprecia¬ tion of your kind assistance, and will¬ ingness to help whenever called on, or whenever wc needed special help.
The men were fine in their interest. Whin we closed we had a staff of ahout 10 workers, most of them well li-ained, .so that your chairman was setting quite easy as to results and the operating of the room.
My financial report is as follows:

My bank book ha.s been balanced, and I would be pleased to have the ac¬ counts checked at any time you wish.
We are now completely paid up with the exception of a small expense bill, and a balance to our credit. I would express my appreciation of the work of the finance commitrtee anti •ould sugprest that they be continued. As a matter of fact very little solicit¬ ing for contrFbutions was necessary, and we found that the easiest part of the Work. Everybody seemed anxious to help.
The item of $12 mentioned from the Eastern Star was advanced on our assurance that we expected to keep Headquarters open all winter. When the plans were changred with the closing: of the camp this was ac¬ cordingly returned, but we are as¬ sured that we may have it whenever we open up again and need it.
The "Federation has to its credit now a considerable quantity of elec¬ tric bulbs, frames, some stationery, waste baskets, etc. The flags loaned were'TStufhed to their owners when we jlosed the Headquarters in Decem¬ ber.
Our landlord and our janitor are deserving of special mention. The rental was low, and we were allowed to cancel the lease without any notice, and in addition were given consider¬ able special attention by Mr. Green¬ blatt. Our "Fred" was invaluable, and the $2 we paid him a week was just a token of jrood will, not to compen¬ sate for the work he did.
Respectfully submitted.
Smith F. Pe^^rsall.

In Instructlug schoolchildren In knlt- tlng, they must begin with the simplest tbiugs flrst and advanced to those tliat are more dlflicult, as in anything else. Some of the schools started out with the six-Inch squares made of colored yams on No. 8 needles, and after that they undertake mufllers, then wristlets. The squares are used by the Red Cross by Joining tbem to make small quilts or coverlets.
Tarn and knitting needles can be purchased either from stores or Hed Cross chapters. The standardized Red Cross needles are in three sizes, and their numbers aud sizes are as fol¬ lows:
Knitting needles. No. 1—135-1.000 inch in <|laiucter.
Knitting needles. No. 2—175-1.000 Inch in diameter.
Knlttli;\g needles. No. 3—200-1.OOO Inch in (^liiaieter.
Tbe children use No. 3 needles. They are flrst taught tu "cuHt ou" aad to avoid uiuking tlielr flr.st stitches too tight, lieglnutng on the tmuM tiquures the chllilren pructlc« until they cun make the stitcher even nnd flrui. They must be taught to plcli up a dropped stitch uud sometimes ravel out aud f- kuit a square several times, itotb boys and girls lilce the work.
Tbey are taught to splice the yuru when it must be Joined ur to leave eutU two or thr«e Inches lung to be darned lu. All knots aud rtdgea arv to be avoided. When they bave learned to knit th* squares tbey can take up tbe mufflers. For these they luuxt use tbe refutatlou gray or libaki coloreil yarn tbat ts sold fur army garments, aud MM pair of No. S needles. Kor u niuf-
fler 24 hunks of yarn {% pound) are needed. Cast on 50 stitches (or a few more or less if necessary) to make a width of 11 inches. Knit in tbe same way as for the squares, with the plain or garter stitch until tbe mutfler is 68 inches long.
Wristlets may be knitted on No. 2 needles, using one pair. They require ^4 hank of yarn (H pound). Cast on 48 stitches, knit 2 and purl 2 for 12 inches, and sew up, leaving 2 inches open space for the thumb, 2 Inches be¬ low the edge. The next garment to be taken up In tbe course of training is considerably more difllcult than the muffler, but only requires two needles. Direction for it will be given in an¬ other article.
Sewing Hint As washgoods shrink mostly in length, when muklng u dress or uprous uUow for a very wide hctu ut the bot¬ tom and blind huste the Iteiii until ready for the tirst wash. Then pull out the bastlug uud, ufter Ironing, meas¬ ure the proper length aud stitch the hem. liy blind stitch Islueuut to baste ou wrong tilde u trifle closer than or¬ dinary bustiutf, leaving the stitches on right side barely noticeable. In luuk- iug clothes of worsted that are likely to need altering iu length make u deep hem at bottom and ruu a tuck by band lu the hem ou wrong side. It wiii uever l>e noticed, aud when tt ueeds aiterlnc It is easy to take out the tnok aod preas tbe tieia.
