These dues are assess- ed, you will be told, not with the in- tention of keeping the club running, but to make the boys feel they are helping to support it. The support comes from Washington men and women of great civic pride who have an interest in the boy and in his work and play, and who, every two or three years, contribute to a budget fund to support the club. Tomorrow will be started a cam- paign to ralse $250,000 to build and equip a new club and maintain it for two years. The old club has done | a great deal of good, but has been | found utterly inadequate to care {of the hundreds of hoys who would | like to be members but who cannot, | because the facilities are not there. | Some of the most prominent men in | the city are sponsors for the cam- paign, and the expectation is that it will go over with a bang. the fact {and w | men ment. proposed et a are Wicomico | re th s other pu have contributéd £ has been Harding, I come the an the cost blic-sy 1 r eq FRANCIS V.
