Chinese Tablet on Broadway.

A bronze tablet with queer letters
inscribed on 1t is displayed in a con-
spicuous place on the iron fence of
st. Paul's chapel, at Broadway and
Fulton street. It is about six feet
from the ground and about ten feet
north of Fulton street.
Thousands Of persons daily pass the
corner. Those who have seen the
tablet stopped and stared at it. The
only letters discernible to them were
20 vesey street, which were on the
bottom Of the tablet. The explanation
Of its presence Is that st. Paul's chapel
maintains Sunday school for Chinese
at 20 Vesey street.
The selection Of that particular place
for the tablet was due to the fact that
many Cinnamon on their way to Jer-
sey City on Sunday pass the Broad.
way side Of the church and turn at
Fulton street to the Hudson tubes.

there was great bitterness; but no

strained, they wrenched, they twisted,

Civic League VIII Give
A Dance For War
Service Measure
A Return Visit Of The Red
path Chatauqua Also As
sured By The League

The February meeting of the Civic
League was held on Thursday, the
twentieth-eighth, at the home Of Mrs.
A. F. Storm. Many topics of interest
to all were discussed.
Mrs. C. E. Jolley, Chairman OF the
Conservation Committee reported that
the first Of series of demonstrations
in cooking had taken place at the High
School Domestic Science Building, I'M
der the direction of Miss Kola Moberly,
Parish Demonstration, assisted by Mrs.
l.. Ehrie, District Demonstration. The
MANY uses of corn meal were explained
and demonstrated The talks given by
the Demonstrators were both pleasing
and highly instructive.
Mrs. Jolley as Food Administrator
for Morgan City Unit will take up her
work with the assistance Of the Civic
League.
Mrs. A. F. Storm reported that the re-
ceipts from the fall war garden amount
ed to one hundred twenty dollars and
fifty cents. At present, Irish potatoes
arc being planted and greater returns
are expected from the spring garden.
The organization of the Naval Auxil-
larry of the Red Cross being completed,
the first requisition for worsted was
made. From now on more knitting nee
dies will be busy doing this patriotic
"bit.''
The National Federation Of Women s
Clubs asked in what way they could as
sist the government as a body, and were
advised by President Wilson and Sec
rotary Baker, that recreation buildings
in France, for soldiers on furlough were
much needed. Directly a movement to es-
tablish a War Victory Building Fund
was begun. A Louisiana Club was first
of all the clubs of the United States to
make contribution Of fifty dollars.
The Civic League is ambitious to be
second on this roll. In order to raise
this donation it was decided to give a
dance on March nineteenth.
A visit from the Redpath Chautau4ua
is now an assured thing; most OF the
guarantors being in favor Of their re-
turns. 1t will again be held under the
auspices of the Civic League.
An invitation to attend the Biennial
Meeting Of Federated Women's Clubs in
Hot Spring, Arkansas, which will take
place in the early days Of May, was
read. Much interest was manifested
and the League is sure of having repre-
sentatives at this great meeting, which
surely will prove helpful to those in at
tendance.
Mrs. Jolley made a motion that the
members Of the Civic League tender the
young ladies, who so kindly helped With
The banquet during the 1nter-community
xleeting, rising vote of thanks for
their splendid assistance. The motion
-Tas seconded, carried and the vote ten
,.,ered.
II was decided that hereafter each
meeting would be opened with formal
program arranged under the direction Of
