Abstract:

During World War I, North Carolinians, including women and children, supported the war effort stateside. Canning clubs were organized to preserve food. The Woodcraft Girls sold food pledge cards and the Campfire Girls volunteered to babysit the children of women who worked or volunteered in plants or at the Red Cross.
