SPECIAL GIFT BODY BOOSTS' RECEIPTS Three-Day - Efforts of Ad-| vance Campaign Brings Total to $265,307.67. | Additional contributions totaling | $105,396.69 from 128 givers to the 1930 Community Chest were reported at to- day’s meeting of Lhe spechl gifts com- mittee. These some of them showing subohntm inaum ‘brought he total amount collected during the first three work days of the advance campaign to $265,307.67 from 235 in- dividuals. Reports were received from all the vice chairmen in char of mnu with the exception of Will Eynon. Mrs. Sidney F. Tlllllem led bv a good mar- in, hlvtng reported $21,775. Others ported as follows: Barry Mohun, 8!735 Mrs. C. C. Glover, jr., $10,452; Mrs. Charles A. Goldsmith, $8,550; th.m Knowles Cooper, $4,550; Arthur Hellen, .13.210 ‘W. W.

Marvin, president of George Washington University, was the guest speaker today. ! Special Committee’s Quota Raised. Revised figures and additional cards bearing the names of persons from whom gifts of $500 or more will be so- licited, show the quota goal of the spe- cial gifts committee to be $916,263.13, Chairman Newbold Noyes has an- nounced, instead of a minimum of $893,368 originally set by the budget committee. As compared with the amount given by persons assigned to the special gifts committee last year the new minimum goal represents an increase of 20 per cent. ‘While yesterday's report of 107 gifts, totaling $159,960.98, included some not- able increases in some of the larger gifts, the need of exercising more dili- gence was impressed on the committee workers in view of the fact that some of the individual gifts had fallen be- hind those of last year. Urges Larger Contributions. “With the present outlook, many peo- ple giving only what they gave last| william Year,” Chalrman Noyes sald, “we can never reach our goal unless those able 10 do so give larger gifts than they gave last year.” A number of new givers were included in the- first report. The spec! ittee will meet again at the Willard today to hear the gtum from a fresh day of campaign- 8.

How the Community Chest Helps One of a Series of Articles on the Practical Benefits of Co-operative Charity. BY MRS. MARGARET FORD, Executive Secretary. Travelers' Ald Society of Washington, D. C. | Letters of appreciation were sent re- | cently to all those who asked the Com- munity Chest to give their contribu- tions, or a part of them, to the Tra: elers’ Ald Society. It may be ima ined, especially by those who lived through the many years of individual drives, what real satisfaction was de- rived from saying “Thank you” in- stead of “Please give.” When I came to Washington three | years ago to take charge of the Trav- elers’ Ald Society, I was faced imme- diately and for the first time in my experience as a welfare executive with the necessity for a drive for funds My previous experience had been in communities having community chests, : and I was unprepared for the difference the lack of one made in a community. Fortunately for me, and for the work, | the directors were familiar with money- raising methods—though thoroughly tired of the job—and knew how to pro- | ceed. That drive and the one the fol- lowing year, with the constant and ex- pennve follow-up work necessary to ob- uired budgec are experiences Iam l]ld 0 for However, the el Iml.nlticrn of this par- ticular phase cl’ the work is but one of many reasons why I, &s an executive, am thankful rur the existence | of a Community Chest in Washington. In addition to bringing about an eco- nomical method of ral funds and of saving the contributors the everlasting lppellu. it has given execu- tives an crpportm: ity to concentrate on the social problems of their organiza- tions and to learn more about other welfare agencies in the community. Also, through the various clubs and committees of the Community Chest, the directors, executives and staffs of | all agencles are ing acquainted, not only with each other, but with the WHERE PRICE TELLS . and QUALITY SELLS & SPRAYS of Fresh Flowers tastefully arranged (Qur New Address) 1407 H Street .27 T National 4905 Wise Mothers Prefer Wise Brothers’ HERE is noth- ing more eomple!e as a food than Wise’s MILK. get Here you all the proteins necessary, as well as the vitamins that help children grow, create energy and. resistance to disease . . . plus depend- able care and service. that '"PHONE OR POSTAL | MRS.
