rium. Next in line is the junior divi-
ion, under the direction of Miss Polly
Gershon, fourteen to seventeen, which
ias its special interest the Hebrew
Orphans’ home.
The senior division has two groups.
The first is the unmarried contingent,
rhese girls also have their bit of work
that is unselfish and altruistic. For
instance they devote themselves to
bringing cheer to the war veterans of
Hospital No. 48. Then they attend
.•lasses of arts and crafts, history,
gym and others offered specially by
the club under well-known instruc
tors.
The last branch is that of the ma
trons. These ladies are not only giv
en an opportunity to establish a cen
ter of thought and activities for their
children, sisters or friends, but they
themselves take an active part in the
civic, educational and social features
of the club. Any classes such as his
tory, child psychology, arts and crafts
or golf are readily arranged for as
small a group as ten at a very nomi
nal cost.
The dues for membership are only
$3.00 yearly, and Mrs. H. Taylor,
chairman of this coming drive, has
urged all those approached for mem
bership to give the most careful con
sideration to this matter.
Mrs. F. Gottesman, 436 Washing
ton street, will gladly send applica
tion blanks or receive checks for the
1929 dues. For any information call
Mrs. M. L. Kahn, MAin 2866 or Mrs.
