 has been received. The officers are: Rev. A. Conklin, president; Mrs. P. W. Soule, vice. president; F. l.. Bliss, secretary; 0. A. Bradway, treasurer, and A. D. Ellis, Mrs. 0. A. Bradway, Dr. P. B. Soule. Mrs. 0. R. ,Buffing- ton, F. @. Ball and Mrs. 0. 0. Mo Gray, directors. The object of the organization is to establish and main tain pleasant and comfortable home for aged people who may need or choose to avail themselves of it. Such homes are in successful operation in many of the cities and towns of Massachusetts, but there is none open to residents of this immediate section of the state The charter is broad enough to include those from adjoin- ing towns who may wish to avail themselves of is privileges, subject to the control of the directors. The project was started by the Kings Daughters, but it was found necessary to have special corporation to man. age and carry on it's work. The Kings Daughters have aooum mulated fund of about $12OO for this purpose. It will be placed in the hands of the treasurer of the home to be known as the Kings Daughters Fund. The organization is now in position to receive gifts and bequests in aid of it's work. Any gift may be designated as a permanent fund to bear the name of the donor, or of anyone whom the donor may elect Such memorial and other funds it is hoped will in time provide for the needs of the home. It is not intended to open the home until means are arranged to in sure it's permanence.

Colors at Atlantic

ATLANTIC CITY, June 24.--To put the
American flag upon every hotel, store and
place of amusement along the boardwalk,
as well as on every municipal and business
building elsewhere in Atlantic City, and
keep 1t flying as long as the present crisis
last is the object of n campaign launched
here by Mrs. Harrison j. Smith, a PhLla-
delpha society woman, who is stopping at
the Traymore. Her home in Philadelphia
is at the Aldne. Hel son, Hoxie Harrison
Smith, Is n member of the LIST City Troop.
Surprised and dlspleased to find that some
of the hotels and many of the Boardwalk
shops lacked even a single flag in the face
of the added incentive that this is the car
nival season at the shore, Mrs. Harrison
carried n message of protest to no less than
30 hotel managers and Boardwalk shopmen
this morning. without exception, they at
once complied with her request for the dis
play of the national colors. Many agreed
to enlist in her campaign to make the dis
play OF the flag general throughout the city.
Today Mrs. Smith will visit City Hall and
enlist the cooperation of Mayor Bacharach
and the members of the City Commission.
She hopes, through them, to reach the fra
ternal organizations of the resort and the
people generally.
