SERVICE LEAGUE
OPENS ROOMS TO
ALL GIRLS CLUBS

All organizations in the city are
being asked to make use of the
Community Service league rooms,
| according to a recently outlined
| program which was made to en-
brace any organization in the city
which was willing to become affilia-
ted with the league a number of
clubs and associations have already
taken advantage of the offer and
are using the rooms for their meet
ings and for social affairs, but more
are wanted.
| In signing the league pledge, or
CARNATIONS in no way restrict their
activities, but do so in order to
make the league one which will
serve the whole community, which
is its ultimate purpose. Organiza-
tons merely become units of the
| league and are entitled to use the
rooms and the accommodations
which membership in the league
affords.
The plan as outlined is to make
the league a social center in the
community. There will be- no fee
charged for the use of the rooms.
The big auditorium, the Office and
class rooms, the dining room and
kitchen and the parlors will all be
at the disposal of the units. In
short, the entire second floor which
the league occupies will be turned
over to them at any time.
More recreational and education
al classes are to be organized. As
soon as a group of girls asks for
certain work, a class is begun.
Many extra activities have already
been arranged for thes summer
months, and more will be planned
if the cooperation warrants such
action.
Special activities for the women
are to be introduced. So far the
community service work has been
practically confined to the younger
women and girls. Canning demon
STATIONS and housekeeping classes
will be started for the mothers of
