Christ Child Society: The general
committee in charge of the member
ship drive for the Christ Child society
wish to emphasize the two-fold aim
of this organization. It's primary pur-
pose is philanthropic work among the
children of the city, but it has for it's
members attractive social aspects as
well. The Catholic young women of
st. Paul are realizing that as social
unit they are altogether obscure.
Moreover, they believe that there is
much work to be done outside the
field in which the Guild of Catholic
Women is rendering worthy service,
On Monday evening, a meeting of
officers, membership committee, and
parish captains was held at the home
of Miss Eleanor Bowling, 756 Laurel
avenue. Father Doherty, city mission
airy and spiritual director of the Christ
Child Society, outlined quite definitely
the type of work to be undertaken.
He suggested five new centers of &C
tivity. In order to provide leaders
for the various places, the following
committee chairmen were appointed,
who will procure workers in each de-
partment, and give them such instruc-
tion for it as may seem necessary:
dramatic art, Miss Cecilia Marien and
Miss Elanor Harrigan; games, Miss
Rose Klumb; catechism, Misses Es-
Their OHalloran and Mary Tozier;
sewing, Miss Mary O'Brien music,
Miss Marie Mcclure. Chairmen for
the cooking and community
groups have not yet been appointed.
1t is planned to have one of these
classes in session each evening in
each community center.
The society cannot function eff
GENTLY until all members are fairly
well acquainted with one another. To
this purpose many delightful meet
ings are already planned. The ST.
Marks unit expects to give silver
tea soon after Christmas. In other
PLACES card parties are considered. A
| reception for all new members will
| be held in the latter part of January
If invited to do SO, the general mem
bership committee will send some one
to a sodality meeting in any parish
| W captain SAC plans anu pun pO0CO vi
the society. This committee is com
posed of Miss Mary McNabh, chair
man; Miss Alma Roehl, Miss Margaret
Sexton and MISC Mary Healy. Where
visits have been made to these sodal
ity meetings many new members have
been Immediately secured. In the
cathedral parish, sixty-seven girls re
sponded at once by giving their mem
bership, while in st. Matthew'S par
| ish nineteen new members were found
| The Assumption and st. Louis sodali
ties are represented by fourteen anG
| fifteen new members, respectively
This group response is gratifying, bu
much personal effort must be made il
order to reach girls who are either no
affiliated with a sodality, or who d.
not attend the meetings in their par
ishes.
Although the Christ Child society i:
national organization, it aims to rem
der local service. 1t therefore shoult
appeal in an especial way to thos'
who believe that charity begins a
home.
