impressed forcibly upon the public
again, and its support solicited for
this most worthy enterprise. This
is one Of the major undertakings Of
tao Oregon Federation and was orig.
mated about nine years ago. There is
at present fund Of $7O95, the total
Of last years gifts, or money raised
by different clubs Of the state amount
ing to $852.36, loans for that period
being e2l90. Altogether sixty girls have
been assisted with loans, this money
being held by a committee from the
State Federation, Of which Mrs. Eliza.
beth Eggert, of Portland, is chairman.
This loan is secured for the purpose of
enabling girls of the state who are am.
bilious and yet unable TO be financially
responsible TO complete their education,
whether it be art, literature, library
work or any other practical line which
they might choose to specialize in.
On the last Wednesday in January
will occur what is annually known as
the loan fund.- "red letter" day. On
that date, or as near as possible, every
club woman is expected to make some
effort in behalf Of the fund, to assist
in every way possible in educating the
public to the idea, and aid personally
In a financial way to as great an extent
as they may wish.
Any deserving young woman who can
secure the recommendations Of the mem
bers Of ner home club is Nlgible to re.
ceive help during her junior or senior
years. Nothing embarrassing is con
nected with the loan, the girls being
generally known only by number. At
least one Salem girl has been aided in
this way, and one Portland yolng wo-
man has been given scholarship in
Willamette university.
Of course, those who are furnished
means are expected to repay the debt
But no compulsory rules are attached
to 1t. The money may be either paid
all at once, or in installments.
