LOAN FUND IS CREATED
ON Welfare PRINCIPLE
Pastor of Southern Methodist Con-
gregation, Baltimore, Forms Asso-
citation for Members Benefit.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
BALTIMORE. February 1o.-The
material as we'll as spiritual needs OF
the members Of Wilkens Avenue
Methodist Episcopal Church South In
a loan fund which has just been es-
tablished by the pastor. Rev. Harry
P Baker.
The fund IL In the hands of q COM
mittee appointed by Rev. Mr.. Baker
and legally Incorporated under the
name Of the Wilkens Avenue Metho-
dist Welfare Association. The pur-
pose Of the organization Is not only
that members, but the entire constitu. .
ency of the church, may have a fund
on which to draw when the necessity
arises without having to pay exorbi-
tarit interest or patronize pawnshops.
Several weeks ago Rev. Mr.. Baker
conceived the idea OF such a fund
through hearing OF an unfortunate
experience one OF the members of the
church had with a pawnshop dealer.
He called a meeting OF several lead
ing men Of the church, each OF whom
gave contributions toward the estab-
lishment OF the new enterprise. A
board Of directors was elected and
the work OF the association Is now
we'll under way.
Any person connected with the
church or any OF its departments may.
upon stating his desire to Rev. Mr..
Baker, borrow the necessary sum of
money at interest Of 3 to 6 per cent,
to be repaid at any future time con-
venient. During the time the money
is unpaid the debtor is asked to de-
posit 10 cents a week toward the
maintenance Of the capital.
The fund now consists Of several
hundred dollars. and several persons
not connected with the church have
manifested interest in the movement
and promised to contribute.
