GOING TO PUT THE

Viewing the President's declaration

A Word of Appreciation

The Artic Ice Cream Co. takes this opportunity at the
close of the Belgian Relief Campaign to thank the pub-
lic, the Arctic dealers and employes of this company for
their hearty and unwearying effort in the execution of
the mammoth task of collecting I 40,000 pounds of wear-
ing apparel.

Director Fred L. Smith of the Red Cross salvage de-
partment summarizes the achievement in the following
statement printed in the Detroit Journal of October 3rd:

Detroit Beats Quota
for Belgian Clothes

- Dyer the Top" 1)etrolt lived up to
its reputation In responding to the
Bed Cross call for the Belgian old
clothes fund.
Its "oversubscription" was 40 per
cent. The goal set for it was 55 tons,

two and one-half car loads. 11(1

Thursday

to

noon the Red Crose sa , •
rage department had 70 tons of old
clothes on hand, five ear loads, with

about seven tons more In sight,
Two reasons for this success are
given by Fred I. Smith, manager of
the Red Cross salvage department.
"First, Detroit was generous, and

pulled together. The second reason
is the Arctic Ice ('ream Co.
But for
It we would not hare
reached our
quota.
"The company turned all its agen.
cies Into collection depots and kept
its drivers gathering clothes (lay and
night. We were forced to rely on It
entirely, But for It we would have

had no assembling points. The coin.
parry alone collected 60 tons and re•
ports that It will have four or flee

tons more to give us Friday."
