FROM HARD-EARNED F The more than 5,000 workers of the | Community Chest are finding the popu- | lace of Washington more “Chest con- | sclous” ‘than ever before, according to | | reports made to H. L. Rust, jr., at a| campaign conference held yesterday at | headquarters in the Willard Hotel. Teams in every part of the city, it was reported to Mr. Rust, have been received more cordially, even by those who do not contribute, than in previ- ous years and practically all interviewed | were convinced of the value of the Chest s a collection agency for Wash- | ington's welfare and relief organizations. To get an impartial picture of the solicitations ana the response from | those called upon, & member of the | Community Chest’ staff was sent out |into two districts yesterday to watch the work of the solicitors. Hope for Success Varied. “The first district visited was in the Southwest section of the city, not far from Neighborhood House,” Mr. Rust reported. “The reporter went With Mrs. J. P. S.

But the remainder greeted Mrs. Neligh as a dear friend— one who had done much for them and their children. They might not be able to contribute to the Chest campaign, but they believed in the Chest and said they would do all they could and they hoped the campaign would be & suc- cess.

The second district was far out Northwest and, although many of those visited expressed the desire to see the Community Chest succeed, some mn_k- ing pledges, there was a noticeable dif- | ference between their attitude and the | attitude of those in the Neighborhood House district. In proportion to what they had, the more Drosperous ones were less willing to give than the | others.” Mr the Rust stressed the importance of “few-cents-a~-day” plan, rather | than insistence upon a straight cash donation. “If pegple would think of | putting aside a few pennies from the household allowance each day when they return from market, they would not miss them, and by the end of the year they would have contributed $18.25 to the Chest,” he said. Example of Willingness to Aid. Speaking of the number of children who have pledged something to the Chest, Mr. Rust stated that an instance of childish patriotism deserving to be recorded was witnessed recently 8t Neighborhood House. In the Neighbor- hood House kindergarten are youngsters from 3 to 5 years old, and these chil- dren listened one day this week to a member of the Community Chest stafl who told them stories of little ones without food or warm coats and shoes. stories were fllustrated by the Community Chest poster showing a lit- le girl wearing an old shawl The following day two of the chil dren, a boy of 3 and his sister, 5 years old, returned to ndergarten ving that each of them would save up a penny a day for the “poor little girl.” Knowing the circumstances of the par- ents, who had scarcely been able to weather the economic storm, Mrs. Ne- ligh asked how the children were going to save their pennies. “Why,” replied the 5-year-old girl “we went home and told Mamma and | Papa all about how cold and hungr the ‘poor little girl' was, and we told | them we wanted to give a penny a day to get her something to eat. So I am going to clear off the table gvery day and Buddy is going to carry oyt the garbage, and then we are going to put the pennies we would buy suckers with into & tin can, and get something for the poor little girl instead. Mamma said we could have a penny every day, in- stead_of just in a while, for the | poor little girl | 0{ Area. Hence the topics to the Cons phase of American biograp!

Progress has no time or sympathy for sentiment. There was great demand for a direct thoroughfare between the two towns, so the decree went forth that a bridge should span Rock Creek, that Q street must be opened and the old house must go. When the Q Street Bridge was built, | and that thoroughfare cut through to Wisconsin avenue, John Newbold, then the owner, had the old mansion moved north to its present site. Many who have made history have lived in the house until it came into the hands of the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America, to be pre- served in all its beauty and to house the collections of the society.
