SHRINERS PRAISE CONVENTION HERE Conclave Management Draws Favorable Comment From Many Visitors. A flood of congratulations is pour- ing in from all parts of the country to Robert P. Smith, potentate of Almas Temple and director general of the recent Shrine conclave. Letters from potentates of visiting temples, imperial officers, leaders of the administration here and many others express appreciation for the hospitality shown in the National Capital and for the entertainment fur- nished by Almas Temple. W. Preeland Kendrick of Phila- delphia, past imperial potentate, who is chairman of the Board of the Shriners’ Hospitals for Crippled Chil- dren, wrote: “The convention was a perfect success. I can hardly com- prehend how such a wonderful en- thusiasm and well-planned entertain- ment could be accomplished in such distressing times.” Frank E. Jenks of Albany, potentate of President Roosevelt’s temple, Cy- prus, expressed appreciation for the “cordial” reception. “Your boys were on the job every minute,” he said, “and I heard nothing but words of commendation and praise on our train when returning.” Steuart Adds Praise. L. P. Steuart of this city, new im- perial potentate of the Shrine, who was potentate of Almas Temple and direc- tor general of the great 1923 Shrine convention here, wrote to Smith: “Al- low me to congratulate you upon the successful handling of one of the greatest, if not the greatest, Imperial Council session ever held in North America. I think Washington did herself proud and when I say this I cantruthfully say that the burden | of it fell on you, and you are tobe congratulated on the wonderful man- ner in which you handled the affair.” One of the communications in which Potentate Smith takes particular pride is an official resolution from the Knights of Columbus in state con- vention, just prior to the Shrine con- clave. The K. C, in their formal communication, extended to the Shrine “our fraternal greetings and cordial best wishes for a successful convention.” In reply, Potentate Smith expressed his appreciation for the greetings, and said he believed “there is a civic atmosphere to these gatherings that brings us closer to- gether and results in better under- standings.” Brewster Lauds Work. Representative Ralph O. Brewster of Maine, the home State of the retir- ing imperial potentate, Dana 8. Wil- liams, expressed appreciation for “the splendid program conceived and car- ried out for the great Shrine conven- tion.” Past Imperial Potentate Conrad V. Dykeman of Brooklyn, who was elected imperial potentate here in 1923, wrote he had attended three Shrine con- claves here—during the terms of Pres- ident McKinley, President Harding and President Roosevelt. He congrat- ulated Potentate Smith on successful management of this conclave, and de- clared, “you put over a sterling per- formance.” John Sebrell, past imperial poten- tate, of Norfolk, Va., congratulated Potentate Smith and Almas Temple upon a “most complete and perfect convention.” Boumi Temple of Baltimore is in- terested in a proposal of Potentate Smith to hold a joint ceremonial next Fall at College Park, Md., between the two temples. Whitney W. Jones, potentate of Boumi, and Potentate Smith are planning to confer with H. C. (Curley) Byrd, first vice president of the university, on arrangements. Dies at Age of 106.

Creation of a “public informa- tion unit” of the Community Chest, with W. W. Wheeler of the Chesa- peake & Potomac Telephone Co. as | chairman, was announced yesterday by Dr. William McClellan, Chest campaign chairman. Although independent of the pub- licty unit, the new agency will co- operate in bringing the Chest and its activities to wider attention of | the public. The unit may devise means for school participation, with a | view to educating school children to the importance of social and -welfare work. Motion pictures may be used to further this education plan. Chairman Wheeler has begun se- | lecting personnel to carry out the | plans involved in this new line of work. | “I believe that this unit offers a | splendid opportunity to get directly | to the public some of the ideals for which the Community Chest stands and a more comprehensive idea of the work that its agencies are doing,” Wheeler said. “I am sure that the members of my committee, as well as myself, will leave no stone unturned to carry out the wishes of our cam- paign chairman, Dr. McClellan.” ‘Wheeler has been associated with the Community Chest practically since its inauguration here. He has served as member of the publicity unit and it was through his efforts that the speech clinic in the speakers’ unit was inaugurated. He also has served with the group solicitation unit and various other capacities, so that he brings to this new position a wealth | of information gained in actual con- tact with the work of the Chest.

Dollars in Action Salvation Army Officers Vow Leads to Rehabilitation of Family Found in The Community Chest reports that its afiliated organizations aid, in some manner, more than ome-fourth of the entire population of Washington dur- ing the year. This is one of a series of stories, appearing in The Star each Sunday, showing typical ezamples of the aid given, Only the names are fictitious. One of the vows taken by candi- dates for Salvation Army officership is that when not in a position wholly administrative that he will devote at least 18 hours each week in house-to- house visitation in the less privileged sections of the city where he is sta- tioned. This case is the result of the carrying out of that vow. A corps officer in Washington visit- { ing in the congested northwest room- ing house section discovered in a damp, gloomy, stuffy basement room a married couple with three children. | The officer, after talking to the family, reported the circumstances to the Salvation Army Welfare Depart- ment. A visitor called immediately. The man was very sick. There was poverty, the room and the children were clean. The family was imme- diately moved to & two-room apart- ment on the top floor of the same building. An Instructive Visiting Nurse was called. In the meantime, the Salvation Army worker called the Social Serv- ice Exchange and found that the fam- ily was not known to any agency in the city. The man had worked as & truck driver and had & good work record covering a period of 10 years, but had been unable to hold his job for the past year because of frequent NORGE Basement Room. absences because of illness. Resources had dwindled until the family had arrived in the basement room a few ‘weeks previously. ‘The Instructive Visiting Nurse thought that the man should have an immediate physical examination. This was arranged for at the Emer- gency Hospital dispensary. It was found that there was a chronic ab- dominal difficulty which could be corrected by an operation. The Salvation Army worker called on an employer for whom the man had worked several years before. When the situation was explained to the employer he said that &n increase in his business necessitated the em- ploying of several additional men and that he would give one of these posi- tions to the man as soon as he was able to work. The worker also found a distant relative who agreed to pay one month’s rent and to furnish the fam- ily food until the man went to work. The consequence of all this was that in less than two months after the discovery of the family in the basement room that they were self- Used Exclusively | MILLER-DUDLEY/: 1716 144 ST.NW.
