Scope and content
An unidentified produce clerk at a local market helped Mrs. F.J. McLaughlin of St. Patrick's church (left) and Mrs. G.W. Cookson of St. Leo's fill their baskets with fresh vegetables in October of 1944. A group of Tacoma churches had joined together to prepare the food for the War Chest Campaign worker's luncheon meetings. Every other day a local church group took over preparing and serving the lunches until the campaign closed on October 23rd. (T. Times, 10/10/44, p. 3). TPL-9187
