NEWSPAPER CLIPPING
Mrs. Harry Johntz, captain of
the Friday squad and assistants
was busy today and many soldiers
and sailors went away feeling com-
forted by the attention given them
by the Red Cross ladies. One boy
who came in on the Limited said
he had nothing to eat since
noon yesterday. They entrained
late and did not stop anywhere
and his first chance was at the
Canteen here. Over seventy were
served this morning. Tonight the
boys will be served with home-made
pies -- Mrs. Johntz having
asked a number of friends to make
them for the Canteen.
[Written in margin] Had 75
men this
a. m.
tonight
we had
230.
They
surely
enjoyhed
the pie,
coffee &
iced tea.
This Canteen work is very exciting.
