Purpose Is Explained.
1--WE became convinced" she said,
that the better method of feeding these
children is in the home, and we feel
this can be accomplished better by the
Community Chest and its organizations
than by any other one group. For this
reason the Woman Crusaders was
formed, to inform the women of WASH
irgton regarding the Chest and its pur-
pose, because we feel that most char
liable work originates in the home,
where woman is in charge"
Mrs. Boyle explained that the Execu-
tive Committee Of the organization,
under leadership of herself and Mrs.
Patterson, with Miss Bertha Pabst as
secretary, is planning to follow the lines
of the Chest metropolitan unit in or
ganization, dividing the city into four
areas, each with its separate chairman.
These chairmen, she said, will in turn
appoint team captains and these cap
tains will organize teams so that by
October 20, when the Crusaders start,
there will be 1000 or more women en-
gagged in disseminating information re-
garding the Chest and its member or
