TOWNSEND GIRLS
RESERVES RAISE $50

Special to The Evening journal.
TOWNSEND. Del, Feb. 13.-The
Girl Reserve Club of Townsend
started off its Y. w. C. A. campaign
for funds in a most promising man
ner when 1t announced that It al
ready had the full amount of the
pledge. At the meeting held at the
home of Mrs. Henry Ridgeley in
Dover when ways and means for the
drive were discussed, Mrs. Harmon
Reynolds, director of the Townsend
group. pledged $50 from her girls.
Returning to Townsend, It required
only one meeting with the club
where she made known the needs of
the hour to set her plans moving.
The girls follow where she leads,
and so their success. Under their
auspices the Junior Glass play from
Middletown was repeated in Towns
end and the proceeds divided be-
tween the class and the local re-
serves. A measuring party Friday
night provided the rest of the $50
and Townsend rejoices.
The history of this club Is one Of
exceeding interest Organized in
November. 1922. with Mrs. Harman
Reynolds. director, the Girl Reserve
Corps, of Townsend, has well remem-
bered its motto OF service. When
only one month old It decided it
must do something for the commun-
ity at Chrietmas time and finally
agreed 1t should give a treat for all
the children OF the community. The
corps gave a box social to make the
required funds for the club treasury
and provided a good time for that
occasion. At the school Christmas
entertainment the corps gave a
tableau of the Nativity scene. Then
it distributed bags OF fruit, nuts and
candy TO 500 children.
That one as busy as Mrs. Rey-
nolds should give her time and en-
thusiasm to the work OF the Y. W. |
c, A. bespeaks its success" one Of
the members asserted. Her in
genuity provides much worth while
for the club and her Willingness TO
work assures that everything she
undertakes will prosper"

cause of Sectarianism
FIND MD. LAW
AGAINST PRACTICE

SALISBURY. Nd. Feb. 13-Meet-
sngs held in the public school build
ings must be non-secular and nom
partisan In character. declares tne
Public School law OF Maryland. The
charge that Sunday-schOol services
being held in Freeny's schoolhouse
were inclined toward the Holiness
Church came near disrupting the
community until the School Board
snterefered this week and barred
further use of the building. Two fac
tons have formed themselves in the
community. 1t is said, and are still
at loggerheads over the issue.
It appears that about four years
ago a delegation requested that the
County Board of Education grant
permission to hold sunday School
and mid-week services in the school
house in the absence of an adequate
building. The permission was grant
ed, with the understanding that the
services must not be dominated by
any single denomination. This came
TO pass recently, it is said, which
brought about the order that the
services must be discontinued. The
board made II plain that its MEM
bers were not opposed in any way to
the holding OF religious services but
a point of law was involved.
