Red Cross Day in London. One of the most popular features of the day set apart for the big annual drive by the British RC, was a "Camouflage Fair" in Trafalgar Square, with the National Gallery in the background. Here are seen the "Parachute Girls," a booth presided over by women who work in a big parachute factory and who spent the day sending out little parachutes into the crowd, the parachutes carrying little bundles of blanks for subscriptions
