The garden party for the Army Relief

to the war conditions it was at first
thought to be impossible to hold it this
year. but il will be given on the after
noon of June 6.
The objects Of the society are to collect
funds and provide relief for dependent
widows and children of officers and en-
listed men of the Unite States army. to
aid them in securing employment and to
obtain for the children educational op-
portunities. At present the society is
educating nearly fifty children whose
mothers are being provided with suf-
hCient funds to keep them at home.
