SCHOOL GIRL IS
 ANXIOUS TO AID
Making Plans to Help Disabled
 War Veterans

While we are paying reverence tc the dead, we ought to be doing some. thing for the disabled" thought
 Evelyn Cudahy, of 3SS Hart street, on Armstice Day. And suiting action to her thoughts the young girl has done something,
 It was during the Armistlce Day exercises at the Central Junior Hign school. Internal Revenue Collector William w. T. Squlres, had just con- cluded stirring appeal to the pa triotism of the students, who had gathered in the large assembly hail. The students were observing the silent period for memories.
 Help the Living Also. It was during this silent period that Miss Cudahy wondered why the student body of the Central Junior High could not do something for the living soldiers who are in such cir cumstances that they would appre- ciate help from their youthful friends She answered her own question by saying We can do something and we will"
 The next morning Principal w. c. French was approached by Miss Cudahy, who told him she wanted to do something for disabled soldiers. It is the policy of the Central Junior High school to encourage the com munity spirit among the student body and MT. French told Miss Cudahy she had full liberty to go ahead and start something.
 She Meant Business
 When Commander Harry c. Jack son, of the Eddy-Glover post, Ameri- can Legion, mounted the stage in the assembly hall of the school yesterday shortly before noon and faced all most 1000 pupils, he as well as MT. French, realized that Miss Cudahy had started something and that with the same spirit she had shown in starting it, she was going ahead with her plans.
 After talking the matter over with some of her fellow members of the Civic league, which really is a junior government of the school Miss Cudahy announced to MT. French that she was prepared to go ahead with her program and at her request he extended the invitation to Commander Jackson to be present and address the meeting.
 A meeting of the student body, comprising about 975 students, was held in the auditorium with Leroy president of 7-1-D., section of the Civic league, 6residing. Miss Cudahy, MT. French and Mir. Jackson occupied the platform.
 Writes Play Also.
 The program included vocal solo, | piano music and the rendition of a play entitled, Every Girl" written by girls of the school, the greater DOT ton of which was contributed by the heroine of the day. Following the play, Miss Cudahy was introduced by MT. Hughes and the former explained | her desire to do something to help | he disabled soldiers have a happier ~'hriStm mas
