First Anniversary of AIMEE Home,

Sunday, Sept 80, will mark the
first anniversary Of the formal open
ing of the AIMEE Home, on Highland
avenue. The Home was left to the
Methodist Episcopal church by the
late Lucy AIMEE for the purpose of
providing suitable home for the
working girls and women of our city.
The work is not charitable in the
generally accepted meaning of the
word, but is conducted along practf-
eally the same lines as the Young
Womens Christian Association and
the Franklin Square House in Boston.
The girls pay a moderate rate for
board and in return are given COM
Portable rooms, good, wholesome food,
and more than all home life which Is
not possible in the average boarding
house. They have the freedom of the
entire house and are like one big fam
fly.
The progress of the Home during
the past year has gone far beyond
what was expected, considering the
limited capacity of the house and the
smallness of the fund. A large num-
Der Of girls and women have availed
themselves of the privileges offered
by the Home. At present every room
is filled and some of the girls are
rooming outside. This is only tenn
porary arrangement and just as soon
as the funds can be raised and there
are sufficient number on the wait
ing list an addition will be built. J
is to be hoped that the day is not
far distant Some greatly needed i'm
proyements have been made. A fur
mace and bathroom have been put in;
chamber finished and furnished:
gas range installed and various addi-
tions of furnishings have been made.

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 20.-Coincident
with the opening Of the Democratic
campaign in Ohio. today, Governor
Wilson gave his hearty approval, to-
day. to the formation in New York
of the Wilson National Progressive
League. The Governor and
Rudolph Spreckels. now in New York

the following kilograms, made public,
today, by the nominee:
New York, Sept 10. 1872,
Governor Woodrow Wilson, Column
bus, Ohio.
Eastern headquarters of the VIII
son National Progressive Republican
League We're, today. opened in the
Metropolitan building. New York.
Our league was founded by Progress
sive Republicans. who hope to have
tho Progressive movement that was
started some years ago in the Repub-
lean party, but which is now being
betrayed by the organization of Col
onel Roosevelt's third term party.
Under these conditions you alone de-
serve the support of true PFogressives
who place principles above PARTISAN
ship. Our membership is wholly Re
publican but we feel justified in voting
and working for YOUR election since
the candidate of the Republican par
ty does not represent the Progressive
majority in that party and Roosevelt $
candidacy is hopeless and only serves
TO divide our Progressive forces.
(Signed)
"RUDOLPH SPRECKELS.'
TO which Governor Wilson replied:
Your telegram telling me of the
formation of the Wilson National Pro-
gressive Republican League gave me
the deepest qualification and encour-
agement. The action you and your as
sOciates are taking seems to me truly
patriotic. The Progressive forces of
tine nation ought not to be divided. No
mere attachment to a party name
should now separate men whose piur-
poses and convictions are united for
a common object. The formation OF
the league seems to me one of the most
reassuring indications of the temper
OF thoughtful men. May / not convey
to you my congratulations on yopr own
part in the movement.
