Plan For Day Nursery by Good Citi-
zenship Club.
Exchange
One of the practicable and valuable
plans originating in the Good Citizen.
ship club is that of a day nursery
where mothers who desire to 60 out
and work by the day, thus materially
aiding in the support of their families
may leave their young children to be
safely cared for while they are at
work. The mother would be CAD to
pay small fee in return for the care
of her children and this would help
support the nursery.
Other expenses will have to be met
by fee for membership in the asso-
citation and donations from individu-
ais and organizations that may be
willing to financially assist the organ
ization. The object is certainly most
worthy and generous response
should greet the application for aid.
Anyone wishing to be further in
formed regarding the enterprise may
consult the chairman of the committe,
Mrs. Harry Eagleson, 1903 Jefferson
street, or Mrs. John Driscoil, 1901
