ASKED FOR WOOL, SHE! CUT OFF HER HAIR

An appeal to children to gather scraps of wool from hedges and iences has resulted in a queer as- sortment of parcels being sent to the Wool Control headquarters at Bradford,

A Welsh woman sent her hair, which she had cut off, "to ́aid my country." A woman in the South- East of England sent a parcel of clippings from her dog's cont.

Other people have sent comb- ings from rabbits' coats, and sheepskin rugs.

Mr. G. Pennington, chief execu- tive officer of the wool control; told a reporter:-

"The response to the appeal has been enormous and not quite what we expected, although many chil- dren have sent us parcels of wool weighing over 50lb., which must has taken some gathering."
