SOCIETY WOMEN
JOIN RANK AND
FILE FOR Y. N. c. 4.


day.
Miss Anna Dortenwald has also vol
unteered, mi II Is said there are sew
eral others whose names shine equally
bright on the social calendar.
Nevertheless the cry Of the Y. w. G.
A. is for more money-not for the sake
of the money, but for the sake of its
home and the dream 1t would bring
true.
Dollars are welcomed. How welcome
they are is shown by the Joy with
which a few very small subscriptions
were received from one woman who
sent her husband out to get money In
che part of Newark while she was get
ting Ii In the other.
Like the Spartan Mothers.
It is shown also by Mrs. Fred Miller,
who dispatched both her husband and
her son into The field. and told them
not to dare to come back home without
a good showing, They didn't dare and
they made q good showing as the sum-
mary testifies today.
But Notwithstanding al this fiockinE
to the standard there still is a wide gar
between the s250,ooo needed and the
amount received. The clock ticks toe
slowly at the Four Corners, but the
building has got to be built.
Nobody has given up hope, of course,
and among those In whose breasts
hope Is taking the shape of many In
gots is Carl Bannwart. captain OF Com.
pany X of the Young Mems Business
team. He's made a business team OF
it truly. and he has come to bat 50
many times with what you'd call home
runs. monetarily speaking. that when
he got UP today to his latest
achievement he was given q perfectly
rousing cheer.

purpose than maintaining a pasture
field for horses.
