with fascinating entertainment.
In the juvenile field, is the
leagues Saturday morning chill
dren's art program at the Cor
coran Art Gallery. which is prov
ing so popular and so worthwhile
it is to be expanded.
On Tuesday at its annual meet
ing. when elections take place for
all candidates except president,
Ga tWo-year term with Emily West
continuing for her second year,
the group will vote on whether to
continue the concert idea at other
high schools. It will also decide
on repeating the Embarrassing, all
day carnival for children and
adults.
Has Slim Budget.
The Junior League operates on
two budgets, both of them slim
in comparison with how far it
stretches it's funds, its president
stressed. "One is dues from men,
bers. plus our sustaining fund de-
rived from the popular Outgrown
Shop conducted in our headquar-
ters at 1409 Twentieth street, and
our partnership in the Thrift
Shop, which averages about S. 900
a year. The other is our welfare
budget, which we secure by pub
lie fund raising and return it in
contributions to various projects,
among them our contribution Of
$4,000 a year to the Psychiatric
Clinic at Children's Hospital"
She believes that the indoctrin-
alton which Junior Leaguers re-
ceive-they are on a probation

before they are admitted to full
memberships effective in show

Service with the Junior League
Is not an end in itself, with our
group" she told me in an inter-
view in her charmingly appointed
home at 3019 Forty-fourth street
NV, where family treasures are
happily blended with modern fur
nishings. I'VE are likewise a
training school for our members
to become volunteer leaders in
this community" With pride, she
emphasized that out of 500 men,
bers, 249 are carrying board posi-
tions in hospitals, orphan asylums,
settlement houses and other kinds
Of community service.
One of the features of the
Junior League, says this youthful
matron, is that it performs self
financed demonstration survey of
what it believes to be community
need. Then after an adequate time,
if it has proven its point, it works
toward having the movement ab-
sorbed by the community. So
remarkably successful has this
policy of cooperation proved that
there is scarcely any type of COM
munity planning in which the
Junior League is not invited to
share.
Aids Hospital Work.
For instance, over 40 per cent
OF its membership has contributed
to this city's blood bank and many
individual members are working
as volunteers, with others helping
out in every branch of the Red
Cross. Junior League nurses
aides are in practically all of the
wards and clinics of Children's,
George Washington University,
Walter Reed, Bethesda, Garfield,
Emergency. Episcopal. Columbia
and Suburban Hospitals. Junior
Leaguers are working with such
other community services as the
Heart Association, Girl Scouts,
Hillcrest Children's Home, the
House of Mercy and the Florence
Crittenton Home.
