MISS CLENDENb|NC
With CITY charities
Philadelphian To Become
General Secretary, Begin
ming January 1
is SUCCESSOR
TO MISS GORDON

The board Of managers Of the Asso-
ciated Charities at a meeting yester-
day afternoon chose Miss Mary Glen
denning. Of Philadelphia, as acting gen
eral secretary at the Office Of the
Charities. No COZ West street.
Miss Clendenning is to assume her
duties on January ,, at which time the
resignation OF Miss sybil Gordon. the
general secretary, win take effect. The
successor to Miss Gordon has had con-
siderable experience IN charity work
in Philadelphia to which city Miss Cor
don will go to be associated with the
work Of the Juvenile Court.
Another important selection made
was that Of Miss Marie Lockwood Of
Ailddletown. Del, as the directing head
OF the visiting nurse branch Of the
Charities. Miss Lockwood secured
her training as a nurse in Philadel-
phia. where she was closely associated
with the visiting nurse phase OF char
I ity organizations.
Reports were received from various
committees. II was announced that
churches and other bodies had ex-
pressed a willingness TO cooperate
with the Associated Charities i'm its
general work, particularly regarding
the distribution OF Christmas dinners
and gifts to deserving families in need.
Encouraging assurances of co-opera-
tion had been received from 4 num-
Der Of bodies at all times more or less
active in extending relief.
Through this cooperation It is
hoped 10 prevent the unwise duplica-
tion OF relief: to keep in close touch
with all families and individuals who
require assistance; to increase the
number OF active workers, in that way
making the work more effective and
satisfactory. and to make it possible
70 secure the best results from the
funds available.
BY means OF this plan OF co-Opera-
tion the confusion and complications
in the past will be avoided The aim
is to secure the personal interest Of
the generous and thoughtful people
OF the city and have them united for
the common purpose Of providing and
distributing aid in a practical and in
telligent manner. With the Associated
Charities as the head OF the charity
work, and in full accord and harmony
with other bodies, including the trus-
tees Of the poor living in this city
the future work OF the Charities will
be directed along extended lines OF ac-
tivity.
= Last winter the Charities was tested
as never before in It's history, and It
lmet the situation well in spite OF the
most unusual conditions. II was ably
assisted by kindred organizations. and
It was demonstrated then that COOP
Grafton was necessary.
For the month OF December. so II
was reported yesterday by the general
secretary, there was a decided increase
IN the number cf applicants for assist
ance. There is as ever. an immediate
need OF contributions TO meet the de-
mands OF the winter Therefore the
managers are anxious to have a gem
erous addition TO their funds. In ad-
dition TO the immediate needs to be
met the Charities is still in debt for
money borrowed last winter.

that the four new members be in
vested with the right to vote. although
they are not yet full-hedged Academic

connected with the French Academy
also are depleted of members on ac-
count of the war. The Institute Of
Bellies Letters has three vacancies +,
that OF Sciences six; that OF Fine Arts
three, and that of Moral and Political
Sciences six. Not few Of these va
cancies were caused by the fact that
the respective institutes struck from
their roll of membership all Germans
who had previously been honored by

cies IS due partly to the desire 10 have
seats vacant when peace comes so
they may be conferred upon the con-
