HARMONY CLUB
AID TWO FUNDS
500 Gift to Tobacco Fund and
$50 for Emergency Re-
lief Work

The Amboy Harmony Club has
again acquitted itself in a most cred
table manner. Reports of q dance
given by them on September 26 have
just been received and show that $3.50
was cleared.
While the dance was given for the
benefit of the "Our Boys in France
Tobacco Fund" the club decided that
the current need for funds in the
emergency relief work warranted a
contribution to that fund also, SO they
have given 500 to the tobacco fund
and $50 to the relief fund.
Previous contributions to the smoke
fund from the club have aided II
greatly, and this latest effort is one OF
the best yet 1t means substantial
sum contributed to a cause which has
Jagged of late owing to other pressing
needs. 1t will send total Of 400 kits
of smokes over to American boys on
the other side. kits which are as well
come as the ever welcome mess. TO the
Yankee battlers. and kits which are
going TO ease their path In the great
drive Rhineward.
The Harmony Club also shows its
true spirit when 1t gives TO the emer
gency relief fund the fifty dollars
which will aid in paying for the ex-
penses Of the relief work from the re-
cent catastrophe.
The Harmony Club has twenty-s six
members at the present time in this
city and eight members are now
enrolled in the service. It is their
policy to keep constantly aiding these
boys, and they have sent them many
of the comforts so much in demand.
as well as having given constantly to
the tobacco and other war work
funds.
