HOPE YET TO REACH GOAL | Teams Which Made the Best Records in Soliciting. At the official closing of the Gar- ield Hospital campaign at the City Club yesterday noon more than 100 workers, who have remained in the { movement to the .last, met to turn in their final reports and to con- gratulate each other on what was termed by several speakers “a re- markable piece of work” in raising $843,032 in two weeks, even though the $500,000 goal has not yet been reached. And it will yet be reached, ording to the determination of a number of the workers, who are to continue their efforts in an informal way, they declare. until the nec $500,000 is raised. The repart for the day yesterday was $128,087, of which the executive committee brought in $9,227, the men's team $13,810, and the women's team $5.050. Ky far the largest team re- port was that of Arthur Hellen, who announced $5,558, thus winning_the “hampionship banner. Roy L. Neu- hauser reported 60, and James R. ) was close behind with 5 Mra. Hagner's Team Commended. Mrs. Francis R. Hagner's team was !the bright spot of the women's di vision. announcing $2.802, or more than half of the total turned in by the ten woman's teams that reported subscriptions. She. therefore once axain won the woman's champlonship banner, which then on her table for the fourth time during the cam- paign. The most cordial thanks and appre- ion were expressed to Chairman Clarence A. Aspinwall by several rep- resentat peakers, who pointed out that he has given practically 100 per cent of his working time to the car last few weeks. One You will never have in on a chairman who will do | more, work harder or give more of {his time.” i The three commanders spoke briefly. Corcoran Thom made a plea for rec- ognition of the splendid work done by those teams which, although un- ble to bring in large gifts or report {winning totals, have worked hard and deserve every credit for the sacri- fices of time and effort th ave made. Newbold Noyes said five words would be enough for his speech: work—thank you—congratulz { tions Thomas Dunlop thanked the teams of his division, which, he pointed out, have given those of Mr. Noyes a close race. Washington Public Generous. Tt was emphasized by one speaker that the public of Washington has shown itself fully as generous as that of any other city—that the onl son why the fund was not oversub- eribed long ago is that there were not enough workers to ralse it “Many people have been so interest- ed and so willing to help,” he said, “that, after waiting some time for the workers who never came. mailed checks to campaign headquar- | ters, in amounts as much as $100 in | some cases. “The average subscription in Wash- ington has been much higher than is {usually found in other cities. The amount raised has been given by an unusually small number of people. We have seen only a small portion iof the people in Washington who are {able and willing to give.” The campaign organization, it was { explained, had to be formed without i sufficient time and was then disrupted | and seriously reduced by grip. which | elippinated a large number of work- |ers. Conflidence was expressed, how ever, in the ability of thoss workers {who'carry on to push the fund up to the mark that will make possible the new hospital building. = Memorial to Old Servant. An interesting incident was related tern they !a of a woman whose contribution, { though substantial. was not large enough for a memorial room, but who | nevertheless made it as being in ftself a memorial to an old and faithful| ervant who had died recently. i { A memorial subscription of $2.100 ! { was announced from Mrs. Truxton | Beale in_memory of her grandfather, ay. A gift of $2.000 was announced { from George Hewitt Mever. Other memorial subscriptions re- ported wer® for $1,200 rooms given ‘b artin W. Hysong, by Mrs. H. A. Peckham, by Washburn Graves and and by Mrs. Anne Archbold. { family | i WL RASE FUND FOR FREE MUST Local professional musicians who jhave devoted time and money in STudy and training only to give to the ‘l'lublir‘ free of charge the benefits of their labors will be considerably en- couraged over the action taken yes- terday by the District of Columbia Federation of Women’s Clubs in de- ciding that hereafter all Washington artists, who appear before the vari- ous clubs in the federation shall re- ceive pecuniary compensation. Mrs. Stahl's Plan Indorsed. The federation unanimous in- dorsed the plan advanced by Mrs. John J. Stahl, chairman of the music committee, to this end. and it was then anounced that a benefit recital will be given at Poli’s Theater, Febru- ary 10, to raise a fund out of which ilocal 'entertainers shall be patd. Charles T. Ferry, pianist-composer, Edythe Marmon Brosius, harpist, and Mrs. Stahl. soprano, have agreed to donate their services for the occasion. The proceeds of the recital, according to the plan. will be divided among the various clubs of the city, who will pay out of their respective funds, musicians who appear before them. Mrs. Stahl and othets discussed the sacrifices made by persons anx- lous to broaden their musical educa- tion and declared it was not fair to them to ask for entertainment with- out charge. She cited the case of a woman well known as a singer, who had been invited to give a program before one of the clubs. She was forced in the end to withdraw her }.ccepmnce “because she was hungry and _didn't have proper clothes to wear.” Mra, Frizzell Is 111, Due to the iliness of Mrs. J. W. Fridzell, president.

Reports were read by Mrs. Logan, chairman of the public wel- fare department; Mrs, Ellen Spencer Mussey and Mrs, Faber Stevenson, chairman of the publicity committee. Two new clubs, the Takoma Park Clvic and the Clover Club were ad- mitted to the federation, bringing the total membership of women's or- ganizations now in the federation up Lo thirty-two. ~ ¥ ) but iy STOPS TO PAT KITTEN ORDERS KTTEN WOME WITH APPROPRIATE GESTURES AS CONTINUES ON HiS WAY THINKING RATHER ~ LOWING HIM AND TELLS WELL OR KITTENS TKITEN TAKES INVITATION 7O PLare T DO 15 TO CARRY REALIZES KMTEN IS FOL: A BLOCK TURTHER BE- COMES AWARE "I’HAT KITIEN 15 STILL WITR BT UTNLE SCAMP © GO HOME !

I am not a pessimist, and I refuse to believe that our civilization is in- decd foundering already. And did| T believe it I would discourage such somber predictions, for the law of suggestion is imutable. and to d seminate them is to facilitate and hasten their realization. As I have explained and, I hope. demonstrated. every idea tends to become a reali As the sick man aggravates his sick- ness by dwelling upon it, and the ged shortens his days by think- thev are numbered: So natrons and races hurry their own downfall by allowing the suggestion of it to sink into their souls. 7 Yet, were the light of 'European culture to be extinguished, the toroh of civilization would still be kept burning by America. Who can visit this country without being persuaded | of its fitness for such a glorious| destiny? American Superiority. There has been much to impress and astound me here, but one of the vividest impressions I shall take with me will be the feeling ving been among a new people. | new people who have begun to| climb where others had stopped, and whose best attainments have far out- stripped the best of other nations. Why is this?- It must be because America started untrammeled by the load of “traditions” born by the peo- ples of the old world, and "her spirit or genius was free to develop on new and independent lines. “Tradi- tions” in this sense are nothing but “suggestions” operating ceaselessly. automatically with ever-accumulating force, upon the whole population through succeeding generations. Of course, the earlier generations of Americans were still under the in- fluence of their legacy of traditions. But-the chain was broken. The vir- gin forests were a fit cradle for the birth of a new nation and a new mind, Autosuggestion would con- tinue to mould them and their des- tinies, but it would flow from a fresh, unsullied source emanating from the unfathomable mystery of life to sup- ply humanity with the elements of progrees. That America foundation for has built a new her spiritual home, nay, for a new civilization, is proved by her political and soclal institu- tions and by her whole trend of na- tional thought today, although this is not the place for a proper analysis of them. Reminiscent as they obvi- ously must be of older omes, they, nevertheles differentiate wideiy trom them in most essentials. There are certain superficial resembiances, nothing like the fundamental sameness of principles which strikes one in all European countries, Socially Far Ahead. Compare the social conditions exist- ing in America with those pertaining to of r countries. They bristie with differences. My beloved country led the world with its revolution and its declaration of “liberty, equality, fra- ternity,” and, for a time, they be- came absolute realities—as absolute as conditions then prevailing could make them. And France still is & £00d land to live in, for the princi- ples she fought for are still a living force. But America has carried those principles further, has given them a new meaning and breathed into them a vitality that renders them proof against all passing shocks. In Europe they are subject to eclipse, because in the subconscious mind of the people centuries of suggestions have not yet been obliterated. Europe has, indeed, solved many social prob- lems, but has not had time to forget the difficulties; the obsession of which disturbs them still from time to tim For Instance, the struggle between democracy _and_autocracy.
