the age at that time was rs
with 18th birthday coming the
next October. Well, said Lii
liam We'll have a birthday par
ty and raise at least $1,000.
She said it is as easy as this.
There will be 100 captains or
so, each pledged to raise IS
by asking 4 friends each to
contribute $1.OO and withthe
captains $1.00 there you have
$500 and 200 captains would be
good for $1,000. It's as easy as

neared Mr.. Steward said why
not wait for the SOth birthday
and Lillian agreed.
Early this summer. Julian

he and Rep. Herbert Jackson
had been saying that they
would like to do something big
for THE GUARDIAN and ask
ed Mrs. Steward what she
would suggest. The latter re-
piled that DR.. Steward
thought it was too late in the
day to buy a car but that
she would like to own a car
and really needed one. Mr..
Steele promptly said "a car
then it shall be-" He thought,
however, as he was to be away
at his summer home there
might not be time to get up
the fund by Oct. 5. Mrs. Ste
ward replied to this that she
wanted the friends who would
be asked to contribute to have
