EASTER EGGS.
"Members of the various Red Cross industries seem to grow prolific, crops of new ideas (says a Sydney writer). Their Easter eggs are going to be something quite unique this year. You cannot eat them poached for breakfast or make them into cakes, but they will hatch out for you a whole clutch of quaint and pretty little toys. Another notion designed to bring grist to the mill is a Rabbit Day —a regular St. Bartholomew Day among the bunnies, when the trappers will be asked to give their catch for one day to the Red Cross, and the compauies will pack and freeze them free of charge. A day of this kind was held once for the Chamber of Commerce War Fund, and brought in a sunt running into four figures."
