al Women spanked their observ-

Der 1928, with a dinner at Lincoln
Lodge, West Broad Street, Colum-
bus, Monday night.

possibility of sponsoring a big
and Little Sister" program in con-
nection with the London schools
under the direction of the Educa-
ton and Vocation Committee of
the Club, Mrs. John Hammond,
Miss Marjorie Cook and Mrs. Ed
ward Flynn. To set the stage for
such a project the committee had
invited Mrs. Joseph del Tedesco,
of the commercial department of
the London School, to outline the
movement for the club. The pro-
gram as outlined by the speaker,
gave a very thorough-going idea of
what could be expected in promot-
ing such a project which she stat
ed must be put on as year round
effort in attempting to help those
girls who wish to launch into a
Vocational Career" one which in
wolves a college education, and one
which pushes aside the going on to
college.
The first year of such move
ment Mrs. Del stated, is one nat
urally of Trial and Error" but
with that behind them and a will
to follow up, members can accomp-
lish much if they are willing to
Live the Title of Big Sister," to
the hilt. Further investigation into
the movement is to be made by the
committee before the club definite
ly commits itself to carry il
through.
Miss Catherine Benjamin, presi-
dent of the Club, who has been in
Public Relations work for the Ohio
Bell Telephone Company for some
years, is this fall starting a more
important new job as Film Library
Supervisor for the southwest area
