ONE THOUSAND WOMEN WANTED.
A Call to Charleston and South Carolina
Women to Work in Clothing Factory
Will the women of Charleston and
South Carolida let the men who
have volunteered to fight on the j
seas for their country, suffer for
lack of clothing?
Pnonmnnia and other diseases will;
increase the ravages among our
soldiers and sailors unless there is
sufficient clothing and bedding. It
is up to South Carolina women to
see that there is no shortage in sailors'
garments because of a shortage
of women labor at the Charleston
Navy Yard factories.
If our country is to be successfully
defended against enemies, it
must have enough women workers
to clothe its men, just as it must
have enough sailors on the seas and
enough soldiers at the front.
The huge task of making all cotton
outer garments for the sailors
of our fleet has been intrusted to
the Charleston Navy Yard factory.
The navy department has built a
splendid breeze-swept addition to its
old factory at the navy yard. It
has equipped this factory with sewing
machines, but many machines
cannot fill the call from all naval
stations for sailors' garments, Decause
they are without operators.
There is an urgent need for 1,000
women to sew on sailors' uniforms
for ten hours a day at the navy yard.
They will be paid on the basis of an
eight hour day, two of the ten hours
being paid for as overtime.
The South Carolina division of the
National League for Women's Service,
operating in connection with
Mr W Vaughan Howard, director
of employment for South Carolina,
representative of the secretary of
labor, is starting a campaign to recruit
the women for the country's
work. All women who are free to
leave their homes during the day
are urged to offer for the service.
Other women, who must stay at
home to take care of small children,
will fee rendering a true patriotic
service, says Mr Howard, who has
charge of the registering in South
Carolina, if they will undertake to
do their own sewing for the next
few months, in order that their
seamstresses may be free to work at
the navy yard.
All women wishing information
about this service or desiring to
register may call at or write to the
iv Vanorhan Howard. I' S

Come On, Boys!
The Record has has received the
following letter from Camp Jackson,
sent us by J B Lovett and Er
nest Cribb:
Dear friends of Williamsburg
county, and especially the boys who
we expect to see here later.
We reached Camp Jackson in good
in good spirits, singing:
"It's a hard thing to beat the Kaiser.
It's a hard thing to do.
And the allies know it too.
Good bye to little Italy, France and
Russia, too:
No Nation can beat the Kaiser
But the Red, White and Blue."
So come on, bovs, and do your
port. You'll be treated fine at
Camp Jackson. You'll be shown
every courtesy by private and officer
while you stay here. Plenty of
good things to eat, and also plenty
of hay to sleep on?soft as a feather
bed the first night anyway.
A few of the boys have been
scouring this morning. They haven't
got us yet but if they do we are on
the job, willing to do our part to
win the great war.
So good bye, boys, till later.
Salmon-Dressing Machine.

In ten ftouri7 time the latest model
of a machine, illustrated in the October
Popular Mechanics Magazine,
intended for use in fish canneries, is
able to clean and dress approximately
36,000 salmon. In operation it is
entirely automatic, and without J
special adjustment handies fish,
weighing from two to 20 pounds, j
Because of its speed, it is able to do ;
the work of about 60 expert labor- i
ers, and thus is an important eco-;
nomic factor in a cannery. As sal-1
mon are carried upward and around
a large wheel, they come in contact:
with knives and revolving devices i
that remove the heads, tails, fins, j
