CAMPAIGN FOR Y.W.C.A.
FUNDS TOR BUILDING
Three Hundred Thousand Dollars
Needed for New Built in :; Exec :
tive Committee Has Meeting.

At the home of Mrs. T. Coleman
du Pont, yesterday afternoon, the execu-
tive committee of the Young Women s
Christian Association held a meeting to
consider matters in connection with the
proposed new building for the association
1t was stated that delay in beginning the
work on the new building was not on ac-
count of any lessening of interest in the
project, but by the fact that the Sl75,OOO
previously raised for the purpose was
found to be inadequate for several reasons,
including the increased cost of labor and
material.
1t was stated that the proposed building
would cost $500 900, and the matter of
inaugurating campaign to raise an ad-
ditional fund was discussed, some of the
members opposing it ut this time. 1t was
agreed, however, that the movement
should be inaugurated as soon rs possible
SO that work on the building could be
started.
The meeting was presided over by Mrs.
c. F. Wollaston. Miss Mabel Stafford
talked on the world program for the
Y. w. c. A. and Miss Sarah Lyon, di-
rector of the overseas committee of the
National Board of the y. w c. A., spoke
on the great part the association is play
ing in the life of the business women of
the country.
The plans for the building, submitted
by Architect +. c. May, were viewed by
the members of the committee. They call
for five-story building, steel frame con-
struction. In the basement of the build
ing win be located the kitchen and pos
sibiy cafeteria The first and second
floors will be used for Offices, parlors, re-
ception rooms and an entertainment hall.
The upper floors will be reserved almost
exclusively for sleeping accommodations
with rs bedrooms and baths.
