War Diary (Continued from Front Page) THREE BIG TASKS Tuesday, Oct. 8—Faced with the prospects of a stronger Britain and perhaps a weakened European continent in the spring of 1941 Hitler and Mussolini must concen- trate their efforts along three lines: 1—To keep the United States out of the war. Threats and a show of armed superiority are the only available means because U.S Axis relations are past the point of reconcilation 2—Search for new such as Japan whom Hitler and Musso- lini count upon to restrain the United States from extensively aiding or fighting on the side of Britain. 3—Shift the theatre of war away from the British Isles, although still maintaining winter-long Nazi aerial assaults, to keep on wear- ing down Britain's strength. FURIOUS NAZI RAID Monday, Oct. 7—London had the most thunderous evening of its month-old siege. The Nazi raiders smashed upon London in full fury after sending hundreds of planes in constant waves during the day. At least 28 of them were shot down. Both the renewed attacks on Britain and the reported move- ment of the Germans into Ru- mania were regarded as part of the program which the Axis news- papers have said would- soon be launched on all fronts to destroy, the British Empire. MENACES RUSSIA Importance of any German move into Rumania is emphasized be- cause the state is a dividing line of Russian and German interest. In the Mediterranean, the Ital- ian high command admitted that a British submarine had slipped up to the Italian Riviera coast and shelled the town of Savona, 20 miles west of Genoa. ® ©@® ©® 6H @ M.S.A. BRANCH Red Cross Headquarters NOTES ® © © © KNITTERS We are constantly hearing the remark that “the Red Cross is too fussy about the work,” and sometimes rather lose patience. Why should anyone be satisfied with anything less than perfec- tion, if it is possible to attain it? If the forced march under such terrible conditions by our British soldiers at Dunkirk can be kept in mind, the reason for our “fus- siness” about bumps, lumps and ridges in socks can be understood. SWEATERS Please do not make the backs of the sweaters too low. There should be no shaping at the back of the necks. REFUGEE WORK A class of knitters, 25 in num- ber, has been formed at the high school in Abbotsford to make re- fugee garments, and they are ull busy knitting sweaters and socks, under the direction of Nonie Gil- more, THEATRE CAMPAIGN We would like to thank the young ladies who passed out lit- erature and collected at the Ab- botsford the&tre for two days dur- ing the campaign, and also to thank the proprietors of the es- tablishmemt. The sum of $15.65 was collected by Joan Stirling, Margaret Jamieson, Jean and Dor- othy Macbeth. allies, buy four ambulances to send to the British Red Cross. Both girls and boys knit and sew for the soldiers. Younger children knit wash cloths and scarves and old- er girls make personal property bags which are filled with small comforts for soldiers. WHIST DRIVE The local auxiliary is making plans for a series of military whist drives, to be held monthy in the Men's Club. High scores for each night will be awarded a prize, and high score for the season will take a grand prize. More details at a later date.
