CONTRIBUTE TO
RED CROSS FUND
________
Groups f Eskimo* anti In-:
' dinns. in widely separated sec-|
tines of Alaska are contributing
their bit to the war effort by
raising money for the Amor can
Red Cros?. according to informa
tion received by H. W. Starling, j
head of the Art? and Craft? Div i
i«:on of the Office of Indian Af- j
fairs.
At the Teller Mission a War
Relief Committee with five wo-1
men and five men as members
has been formed and has set a
quota of $300 to bo raised for
the American Red Cross during
the year ending March 15. 1943,
according to John W. Fults,
teacher at the Mission.
Of this amount $40 has already
been raised by the sale of Es-|
kimo slippers sold through Mrs.'
Edna O'Leary at Nome. The slip
pers were made by school girls
and adult women of Teller who
took part in the sewing project.}
Beads and slipper linings were
furnished by the school and all
work donated by the project
group. School girls originated
the decorative bead de gns and
the adults finished the lower part
of the sTnpers and the sewing.
“This is an indication of how
money for the Rod Cross can be
raised by these people who are
anxious to do their hit but
among whom cash is scarce,” Mr.
Fults wrote.
Southeast Alaska Project
Work for the same purpose, to
raise money for the American
Red Cross, has also been com
pleted bv the Alaska Native S:s
terhood. Camp No. 4 at Sitka,
which decided to make mocca
sins to be sold for the benefit of
the Red Cross, according to Sam
uel P. Troutman, principal.
The organization made fifty
three pair of moccasins and, with
the exception of two pair that
were sold locally in Sitka, they
were sold for.the Sisterhood by
the Arts and Crafts Department1
for $102.03. All work and part
of the material was donated by
the members of the Sisterhood
and the net proceeds are to be
turned over to the Red Cross.
Officers of the Alaska Native I
Sisterhood .group that completed
this voluntary project are, presi
dent, Mrs. Charles Bailey; vice-'
president, Mrs. Thomas Young;
corresponding secretary, Mrs.
Cyrus Williams; financial secre
tary, Mrs. Peter Kitka; Treasur
er, Mrs. Basco; Committee Heads
