committee for aid. Those who have
desired employment have been i'm
mediately located, but the supply has
by no means equaled the demand. He
has on record now quite a number of
good places where there is work for
women or girls.
Some days ago young woman came
from San Francisco and applied for
help. Mrs. e. M. Fower, whose beau
tiful home on Orange Grove avenue is
one Of the show places of the city, gra-
ciously offered the young woman a
temporary home. While she was re-
covering from the terrible experiences
of the San Francisco disaster the young
woman suddenly took sick. She has
grown worse instead Of better and it is
becoming quite problem to know what
1t Is best to do with her.
Mrs. Fowler and her daughter leave
in few days for Europe and both she
and the men of the refugee committee
are almost at their wits end to know
what to do with their patient. She
might be placed in the Pasadena hos
pital until she RECEIVERS, but the COM
mittee has no funds to reimburse the
hospital authorities. It is likely, how
ever, that this difficulty will be over
come and the suffering woman cared
covers a place is waiting where she
can receive employment.
A member of the Shakespeare club
has Just received a letter from friend
in Oakland telling how great is the
need for children's clothing and de-

nurses outfits previously asked for and
these will be forwarded north as soon
as possible. The new need will at once
be taken up and beginning on Monday

Of the relief work Of the club and will
be glad to receive contributions to aid
