"FINE TRIBUTES PAD R Associated Charities Resolu- tion Declares His Work Will Stand as Memorial. Tribute to the tireless efforts of Wil llam Henry Baldwin in behalf of bets tering conditions in the District of Cn-l lumbia in connection with the Asso- ciated Charities was paid by officers and members of that organization, who met in the office of the president of the society, Commissioner Rudolph, and adopted fitting resolutions in his memory. It was called to the attention of the soclety that Mr. Baldwin, who died Wednesday, here in Washington, had been a member of the board of man- agers for the past twenty years. The resolutions adopted are as fol- lows : “Soon after coming to Washington Mr. Baldwin served in the ranks of the soclety as a voiunteer by becoming an active member_of one of its District conferences, where there immediately came to his notice the suffering of wives left destitute by the non-support or de- sertion of their husbands. loan shark broker from doing busi- ness in the District of Columbia. “Unfortunately in the passage of this law Congress declined to accept the rate of interest as recommended by the citizens' committee and not with- | Misi standing the repeated efforts of Mr. Baldwin as chairman have thus far I_fl.!lay to modify their originul ac- on.” ‘Work Stands as Memorial, “In an unostentatious way Mr. Bald- win was a generous financial support- er of the American Assoclation for organizing family -gocial work of which he served as vice chairman for many years of the National Tubercu- losis Association of which he was treasurer, also, and of the local Tu- berculosis Assoclation as well as many other similar organizations.” The minutes adopted concluded with the assurance that Mr. Baldwin's con- tribution to important social legisla- tion of the District of Columbia will stand as a permanent memorial to him as a citizen of the Nationa] Capi- tal; that his associates who knew of his unselfish character and singleness of purpose will deeply mourn his loss. The minutes were directed placed on the permanent records of the society and a copy transmitted to his widow. Funeral services for Mr. Baldwin will be held at his home this afternoon at 4 o'clock, the Rev. Dr. Charles Wood of the Church of the Covenant officiating.

GOLFER PLAYS 70 HOLES ON HIS 70TH BIRTHDAY DES MOINES, Iowa., September 28. ~—Starting out at 6:30 o'clock yester- day morning in a downpour of rain, J. H. “Dad” Wickham, celebrated his seventleth birthday by playing sev- enty holes of golf over the Hypherion Club links here. Wickham consummated the seventy holes in a little less than ten hours, finishing at 5 o'clock feeling “fresh as a young calf.”” His total was 383, an average of little less than five and one-half strokes to a hole. Reminded as he finished that an English physician had declared men over fifty ought not to play golf, Wiokham answered: “Folderol. It's all that keeps me alive.” ——e—— Weathering of the natural great stone face on a rock on the Lehigh University campus is sald to have brought out the profile resemblance to George Washington.
