THIRTIETH ANNIVERSARY
ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
Conservation Of the Child Will Be
Discussed at Wednesday
Nights Meeting.

a large attendance Is predicted for the
annual meeting Of the Associated Chari-
ties, to be held at Rauscher's Wednes-
day evening at s o'clock The topic,
''The Conservation Of the Child was
chosen as one in which all social workers
are interested. The subject will be dis
cussed by Judge Julian ". Mack and DIR.
William NJ. Davidson.
Judge Mack, now OF the Commerce
Court. was for many years judge Of the
juvenile court Of Chicago where he
achieved a wide reputation in the treat
ment of childrens cases coming before
the court. Judge Mack is said to be par
ticularly interested in means and meas
ures looking to the prevention of juvenile
delinquency.
The fact that the public school is rec
osnized as one OF the principal agencies
making for the conservation of the child
gives appropriat eness to the selection of
the superintendent Of schools; -Dr. David
son. to speak upon this subject.
The meeting will celebrate the thirtieth
anniversary of the organization Of the
Associated Charities. The work of the
society touches so many children in the
homes of needy families in the District
that the committee on arrangements has
felt that the society's thirtieth anniver-
sary could be celebrated in no better way
than by discussing the needs of child life
