JUNIORS' UNIT
MAKES GREAT
STRIDES
By MARY PADGETT
Although only in its first year,
the Junior group of the Marietta
Park Women’s Club, which holds
its regular Thursday meeting this
afternoon, has made great strides.
The girls were organized by
their elders for the purpose of
creating a friendlier feeling among
them and to develop a social con
sciousness toward the community.
Their meetings are conducted by
officers of their own choosing.
These officers are: Fayne Ruth
Kiley, president; Rosalie Nebel,
first vice president; Mary M.
Murphy, second vice president;
Barbara Hay Hargrave, third vice
president; Patricia Ritter, corre
sponding secretary; Mary Miller,
recording secretary; Marion Mess,
treasurer, and Bertha Auth, cus
todian.
This afternoon’s meeting, in the
Paul Junior High School Com
munity Center, will be under the
direction of Mrs. John D. Kiley,
chairman of the junior group, and
Mrs. William H. Hargrave, assist
ant.
In order to facilitate the aims
of the organization, the girls are
divided into three groups, ranging
in age from 6 to 16 years. The
older girls are making bed bags
for patients at Walter Reed Hos
pital. The younger girls are do
ing handiwork with a view to sell
ing their product.

Marietta Park Woman’s Club gavg

many beautiful gifts.
Mrs. W. W. Husband, chairman
of the Department of American
Citizenship of the District Federa

club women of the city to attend
the annual bazaar sponsored by
her department to raise money

The bazaar will be held in the

GIFTS TO chest
AT 11,725,127
Final figures in the Community
Chest campaign show that 172,553
contributors gave $1,725,127 to the
Chest’s 65 agencies during the
November drive, with additional
funds continuing to pour in, a
C. P. A. audit disclosed today.
Eighty-seven per cent of the goal
of $1,969,000 has been reached.
Attributing “an apparent mis
understanding” among Washing
, tonians as to the status of the
Chest, Herbert L. Willett, jr., said:
“Too many people regard the
Community Chest as just one
more organization seeking funds,
i They give accordingly, failing
to understand that the appeal is
really 65 appeals for the 65
agencies affiliated with the
Chest. Washingtonians who
would cheerfully give $lO to one
Chest hospital or one Chest
Boys’ Club nonchalantly hand
over that $lO for 65 agencies,
not realizing that they are giv
ing about 15 cents a year to
each agency and thereby penal
izing people who need their
help.”
Mr. Willett, however, lauded the
i generosity of District residents as
being “ready to give something to
almost any cause that is pre
sented.”

Eat or Sleep
“The gas on my stomach was so bad
I could not eat or sleep. Even my
heart seemed to hurt. A friend sug
gested Adlerika. The first dose I took
Drought me relief. Now I eat as I
wish, sleep fine and never felt better.**
—Mrs. Jas. Filler.
Adlerika acts on BOTH upper and
I lower bowels while ordinary laxatives
act on the lower bowel only. Adlerika
? lives your system a thorough cleans
ng, bringing out old, poisonous matter
that you would not believe was in your
system and that has been causing gas
pains, sour stomach, nervousness and
headaches for months.

Give your bowels s REAL cleansing
with Adlerika and see how good you
