CLUBS FEDERATION
ENDORSES SOCIAL
CENTER MOVEMENT
Women Told Whitewater
Summer School Work
Brings Happiness to Par
ents and Children.

Endorsement of the social center
work done the the Whitewater school
was given by the Richmond Fedora
ton of Women's clubs at a meeting
held yesterday in the high school
auditorium The federation also
pledged active support of the project
"Although we have only three hun
dred enrolled during the regular
school session." said Principal Ram
sey, I'VE have over two hundred en-
rolled for this vacation school, which
proves that the children need it and
are interested in it," That the work
is now handicapped for lack of ade-
quate equipment and that its possible
tiles are great, he also emphasized.
Supervisor Reports.
H. l.. Haywood, social center super
visor, after describing the typical pro-
grams which have been carried on in
the afternoon said:
THUS far the attendance has large
ly been made up of children. This
has been we'll worth while and the
good done for them has justified the
undertaking. But this is not the work
which we planned in our conferences
with the school authorities Our aim
is to interest the women, and especial
ly the mothers Of the neighborhood,
with the hope of being able to give
them opportunities for improving their
knowledge of household arts and other
accomplishments useful to the mother
and housekeeper. am afraid that
thus far many of the women in the
district have misinterpreted the move
ment to be a kind of charity effort.
Others perhaps have not come simply
because they have not known about
1t. The members of the women S
clubs can be of the greatest assist
ance to this social center work if they
will help us visit the homes in River
dale, and acquaint the people there
with the possibilities of this work
Asks for Cooperation.
Mr.. Haywood also spoke of the need
for financial backing and for the CO.
opera ton Of those who are able to give
their services in the work. He ap-
pealed to the clubs to recommend a
list of persons in the city who would
be able to give talks, musical pro
ing lessons and otherwise to help
GALL on tAc dCllS1llSS VI lue SOCldl
center.
This appeal was enthusiastically re-
sponded to by club representatives.
They pledged themselves to secure
the money and to help in arranging
the programs. A number volunteered
on the spot to give their own services
and suggested others who were pecul-
iarly fitted for such work. AS re-
suit of this meeting, the social center
is assured greater success and useful
ness.
At the social center afternoon in the
Riverdale school yesterday, the Moth
er's League, composed of about twenty
women whose children attend the
school, arranged for an evening social
to be given in two or three weeks.
They are hopeful of interesting large
number of women in the community in
the work in this manner and also of
being able to secure some funds to
carry it on. These women have al
ready accomplished a great deal in
sewing and are becoming more inter.
ested in the undertaking each day.
