HOSPITAL CHILDREN
HELP HARDING FUND

Half a dozen small inmates of the
free ward Of the Children's Hospital
here, who call themselves the Happy
Hour Harding Club will deny them
selves refreshments provided each
week by Miss Frances LEIGH, 1915 Q
street, in order to contribute to the
Harding memorial fund. Without
money of their own to give in mem
ory of Mr.. Harding, the little patients
have volunteered to do without the
weekly treat of candies, cakes or
fruits until they have repaid by their
self-denial the So which their pa
troness gave to the Harding Memo
rial Association in the Name of the
Happy Hour Harding Club yesterday.
A note expressing the children
hope that the memorial would be
erected in this city. where they could
see it, accompanied the donation.
| But if Mrs. Harding would like it
at Marion" the letter concludes, that
will be all right and we can see a
picture of it,"
Brig. Gen. Charles E. Sawyer. chair
| man of the national executive COM
mittee of the memorial association.
] said yesterday that he would person.

| children's gift and explain the reasons
| for erecting the memorial at Marion.
| A blessing for Mrs. Harding is ask

Hour Club. Prayers were formerly
| said for the President. When Mr..
| Harding started on the long trip to
| Alaska the children, some in wheel

/ for his guidance and protection while
he was away. The club will receive

CITIZENS REQUEST
WIDER SIDEWALKS
Northeast Association Points
to Congestion Due to Build
ing of Eastern High.

The Northeast Washington Citi-
zens' Association, at it's meeting last
night in the Northeast Masonic Tenn
pie, requested the Commissioners in
resolution to widen the sidewalks
on East Capitol street between 18th
and 18th streets and to pave 18th
street from East Capitol to Il street.
The sidewalks were laid years ago,
the resolution said. when traffic over
them was light. Now hundreds of
students of the new Eastern High
School pass over them daily and, due
to such congestion, many are forced to
walk in the mud. The untidy condi-
tion of the floors of the school was
attributed to this situation.
Acquisition of the Patterson tract
on Florida avenue, formerly Camp
Meigs, as park space was discussed.
Effort had been made to have a por-
tion of this site placed in the in
dustrial zone, but it was said that
the coming commission disapproved.
