SOLDIERS’ PARCELS
‘’There has been a splendid response to the broadcast appeal for home-made cakes and biscuits for soldiers’ parcels,” states a report of the Women’s Metropolitan Patriotic Committee. “Tins for packing are urgently required. Several country people will bake cakes if we can provide tins. The people in one country district gave' .butter and eggs and people in town with plenty of sugar made biscuits and cakes. Women from several country districts have come to the depot to assist with packing parcels and have thus received a valuable insight into this phase of the work. ‘‘We have packed the number of parcels which, judging by our last quota, will be sufficient. Word has not yet come to forward them, and until it does we cannot start Christmas packing.”
