This fact w-s emphasized at the recent Child Health Conference held in_this city. This deplorable condition should be a challenge to service 1o every women's organization of the couniry. As club women we should not cnly do everything possible to relieve immediately the poig- nant suffering of the men, women and children, but, equally as important, we should study the underlying reascns for this deplorabl> economic situati-n, and by combined study and effort endeavor to help work out a remecy, so that in America, rich in wealth and natural re- sources bevond that of any other coun- try in the world, although the most un- equally distributed, we will not millions of men, women and children approaching the vergs of want 2nd suf- fering, and the victims of disease, be- cause of undernourishment.

But the immediate responsibility for the women of this city is to heip the unfortunate and suffering in our own midst, and the best and most practi- cabl>' means of saccomplishing this | worthy purpose is through the Com- | munity Chest campaign.

The granddaughter of Jay Gould, whose railroad mahipulations made him a money king of the post-Civil War period, Lady Decies came to be known in England for the spectacles she some- times presented society, her penchant for the unexpected and as a lavish but charming hostess. She was married in 1911, when she was 19 years old. The ceremony was performed in New York, its splendor and the prominence of the principals giving it wide publicity. Her name was frequently in the headlines, particularly when on her honeymoon she smoked a cigarette at the railroad station in Brunswick, Ga. Her reception in the British court was a triumph. She appeared before the King and Queen in a white satin gown | embroidered in diamonds, pearls and crystals. and a train rich with silver lilies and ermine. The elite of London thronged the se- ries of balls, dinners and the like which followed, and she became one of the most. prominent figures of English so- clety. Heifess to Fortune.
