JUNIOR BRANCH OF AID
SOCIETY PLANS DANCE
Newly Formed Organization
Has Noteworthy Success

Through the kindness and generos-
ity of some of the ladies of the Cath
ollie ladies' aid society. in order to en-
courage the spread and influence of its
work the junior branch of this organ
ization is to give its initial dance In
Century club hall on the evening of
Friday. June 4.
This branch formed a little more
than year ago. both in conception. in
the bringing together of its members
and in final organization, is the work
of the grand president, Mrs. d. F. Ra
gan, and a few OF the leading members
of the Catholic ladies' aid society, an
organization with whose works of
charity the public of San Francisco has
for the last % years been familiar.
While these ladies are accomplishing
a great work In the name of charity,
it was thought that much good might
result from marshaIing the younger
generation under the same standard.
With this end in view the young girls
have been formed into a branch of their
own. known. as the Junior Catholic
ladies' aid society.
The success of the practical working
out of this idea has proved the wisdom
of it's originators, for after II months
of existence the Junior Catholic ladies'
aid society is a fourishing organiza-
tion Many of it's members have found
much genuine pleasure in visiting the
old the needy and the helpless. while
all are gratified to know that their
small contributions of % cents every
month have been potential factor in
supplying for others some of the neces-
saries which they themselves enjoy.

her as maids of honor on the occasion
Miss Margaret Kelly, Miss Isabel Duff
Miss Annie Lenehan. Miss Bessie Fitz-
