First Party Yesterday.
The first party given by the new
committee of the council was held
yesterday when about dozen elderly
women, ranging in ages from the
late Cos to the late 70s, were enter
tanned at the Fifth Baptist Church
in the Southwest. Mrs. j. M. Daw-
son was in charge of the program,
which featured Christmas music by
Mrs. Carleton Long and a reading OF
the Christmas story by Mrs. Ruth
Snyder.
Genuine pleasure was reflected in
the little group of lonely old women
and all applauded delightedly when
the one who was acclaimed dean"
of the party through merit of years
was awarded gardenia. known to
the neighborhood as just Grandma
Best" the elderly guest smilingly
admitted she was well past her 18th
birthday.
The second neighborhood party
will be held at the Pilgrim Baptist
Church, also in the Southwest, when
| the Rev. John S. Miller, pastor OF
the church, and his wife will con-
duct the party. Again the Oldest
person present will be presented
with a gardenia.
Shortly after January l centers
will open in Georgetown, with Mrs.
Floyd Orsby as leader, and in Mount
Pleasant, with Mrs. w. L. Hill as
leader.
There are approximately 1000
lonely old men and women in Wash
ington living alone on meager funds,
according to Mrs. Ketchum. They
need friendship and opportunities
for recreation, she points out, to
help bring a bit of sunshine into
rapidly advancing years and to dis
pei some of the shadows cast by
memories of yesteryear. I
Mrs. Ida Currie is chairman of
the special volunteer Services for
the Aged" and Mrs. Carl Johenning
is the city missionary for the Bap-
tist women who sponsored the party
given yesterday.
Other projects, under the Chris
rian Social Relations Department,
include shipping winter outfits to
boys and girls from to 10 years
of age in Europe and helping To-
cally to secure foster homes for de-
pendent children. Mrs. John E.

Smith Aunanae
To Hold Benefit
Ballet January :

Neither Christmas shopping nor
Christmas holidays with their
stepped-up social affairs, have pre-
vented members of the Smith Col
lege Club of Washington to lessen
efforts in making their benefit per-
formance January 2 a success.
The affair, which will be the IA
nous Joos Ballet in Constitution
Hall, is expected to draw capacity
audience from among all circles in
Washington where there are lovers
of the ballet, which means practi-
cally every group.
Proceeds from the ballet will go to
swell the fund which all Smith Col
lege alumnae are planning to pre-
sent to the college in celebration of
its 18th anniversary next year. A
pioneer in higher education for
women, Smith College was incor-
porated in 1871 and since that day
has been foremost in sending women
leaders into the world. But Smith
College is not rich and rising costs
during the last fiscal year have
brought a great deficit.
With rising costs there has been
a corresponding rise in student ap-
plications for scholarship aid and
the extremely low salaries paid
Smith College professors must be
raised in order to permit them a
minimum living wage.
Buildings must be repaired and
others built to take adequate care Of
broadening the curriculum.
The goal of the anniversary CAM
paign is $1,000, 900, with Mrs. Dwight
M. Morrow as honorary chairman
and Mrs. r. Keith Kane of New
York, formerly of Washington, as
chairman Of the drive
Mrs. Howard Nichols and Mrs.
Gilbert Emerson are co-chairmen

For generations the world has
conceded that Christmas belongs te
children and hardened indeed is one
|whe forgets the thrill that came
in the days when one waited fo1
to fly over the housetops and
s-climh down the chimney with his
sack full of toys.
Christmas is also special time
for old people but then it more often
brings pain than p]easure-pain
from memories of by-gone Christ
masses and of better times in a long
ago.
To this group, the Washington
Council of Churchwomen has turned
its particular attention this year
and a new project, "An Adventure
in Neighborhood Friendliness," has
been inaugurated to give special
service to old and sometimes for
gotten men and women in the citys
congested neighborhoods.
You'd be surprised how many
old men and women live alone in
little attic or basement rooms, some
times too sick or crippled to even
leave their rooms or, if they do go
out, no place to CO." explained Mrs.
Irving w. Ketchum, president of the
council.
To reach this group the council
has organized Christian Social
Relations Department, under chair
manship of Mrs. Edith Allen, which
sponsors several new projects in
cluding the volunteer Services for
the Aged"
Services for the Aged"
Mrs. Ketchum said the services
for the aged" aims, through mem
bers of committee especially or
ganized, to locate old persons in diff
ferent communities who live alone
on a small and limited income.
Many old persons live on tiny
pension, perhaps less than $40 a
month";" a member of the council
said. However, like all human be-
ings, they enjoy their freedom and
prefer to live alone on pittance
rather than to go to an old persons
home"
To help this group members of
the councils special committee visit
them in their homes after obtain
ing names and addresses from
church pastors or neighbors.
Many of these elderly people have
q hard time buying groceries or the
few things they need and are able
to buy" Mrs. Ketchum said. Some
of them have difficulty climbing the
long fights of stairs which lead to
their attic rooms. When it is cold
and ice is on the walks they are
often afraid to venture out. So, our
council members 60 to them. They
make a list of what is needed and
shop for the old people In addition,
we are planning to have sort of
