/ The Vienna News VOLUME SEVENTH m YOUNG FOLKS RESPONI TO W. S. S. CALL VIENNA. QA.. THURSDAY. JUNE 27, 1018 NUMBER 48 MAJORITY OF YOUNG VIEN. NIANS ENROLLED AS MEM BERS OF WAR SAVINCS CLUB. A happy idea that originated with the Woman’s W. S. S. Committee ^hich is bringing happy results was the formation of War Savings Clubs among the young Americans of this city. In order to make it possible for over/ young person from the ba bies up. to have a part in this plan which has a two-fold purpose, the in culcation of the principles of thrift and helping to support -the govern ment’s war program, three clubs have been instituted. These are de nominated the $6.00 W. S. S. Club, the $10.00 W. S. S. Club and the $20.00 W. S. S. Club. Eligibility to membership depends solely on a pledge to buy War Savings Stamps to the extent of the amount named. The young folks and children are ex hibiting a great deal of interest in the plan. With many no sacrifice will be necessary to msot these pledges but others are signing the cards, knowing that it will entail a certain amount of self-denial and per- >haps a little extra work to make the investment but they are responding willingly. Mrs, O. W. Horne and Mrs. R. S. Middleton have undertaken the task AND MRS. H.R. FENN GIVE MINIMI. DINING FRIDAY, JUNE 21ST, CELEBRAT ED WITH THE USUAL MANI FESTATION OF C-HEER. Go mmissioners for May of spreading this thrift propaganda The war has brought many changes but the scores of friends of Mr. and Mrs. H. R. Fenn who look forward each year to the 21st of June, when it is the custom 'of these hospitable folk to entertain with a real dinner, are delighted that it has no$ yet been necessary to abandon this happy cus tom, and that they have been privi leged once again to have a part in the pleasures of these un'usually en joyable occasions. The host and hostess are being congratulated fur ther upon their ability to stage such an affair and at the same time patri otically conform to the orders of Mr. Hoover. The fact that they have done this makes their friends all the more appreciative of their hospitali ty this year, because they recognize that it entailed a certain amount of self denial to make the occasjon pos sible. One thing is true of these annual affairs given by Mr. and Mrs. Fenn, they have no counterpart, this type of old-fashioned hospitality being al most extinct The assembling of friends and acquaintances from far and wide, the bountiful dinner, per- pectly prepared and served under neath the wide spreading oaks, the Paupers List * J ....

A re port from the chairman shows that forty children were examined, -of these nineteen measured up to standard, showing proper devel tnent, the remainder fell somewhat khort of the standard though none gave evidence of any marked physical defect >The test will probably be extended throughout the county. At a meeting of the W. S. S.

The majority of these were encouraging, the com mittees _in some districts having al ready secured pledges to cover q greater per cent of their allotmepts.

All over the county an intense ef fort is being made to have tho entire quota subscribed by tonight so that no work will be necessary tomor row and the day can be devoted to a sort of celebration of a. duty well performed.
