N.C. Veterans at Hospital at Camp Sevier, Not Forgotten by Charlotte Women, Feb. 27, 1921

Mrs. Ralph Van Landingham and Miss Emma Hall recently returned from Greenville, S.C., where they went in the interests of the canteen troops of the city, to give a party at the hospital at Camp Sevier, for the North Carolina men sick there. Mrs. Van Landinham is commandant of the Red Cross canteen troops in Charlotte and Miss Hall captain of Troop C.

It is the privilege of the canteen troops of the city to bring sunshine into the lives of the North Carolina men, 66 in number, at the military hospital at Camp Sevier, and to supply them with delicacies and sickroom necessities. The party given them by the Charlotte ladies in behalf of the canteen troops of the city was a delightful affair, and all the men enjoyed themselves to the utmost. The officials of the hospital said that the effect of such an entertainment on the men was so fine that they would make an effort to see that every state did something to cheer its men at the hospital, to make them feel as if they were not forgotten by the home folks.
