Chest Dollars in Action | | Orphaned Girl, Given Chance to Learn Sewing, Carves Out Her Own Career. HE outside world seemed rather A fearful place to Katherine, | who was an orphanage child. All her life, trom babyhood up. had been spent in institutions. | How would a girl with her training | be able to face the world and take | her place among girls who had been ‘ accustomed to giving and taking thel blows exchanged outside the protect- | ing walls of homes? But that was before Katherine was sent to St. Rose’s Technical School at | 1878 Phelps place, for the advanced | education and training given to the | orphaned and half-orphaned girls | ready for high school The studies were interesting, not only the academic branches, but the domestic arts appealing to her. She made good records and sewing was her favorite study. Labors of love for Katherine were taking tiny little | stitches in a layette for some fortu- nate baby whose garments were to be of fine linen and silk, embroidering faultless monograms on crisp, lux- urfous damask, or fitting a lovely dress on the fortunate debutante who was going to wear it to her first party. She decided to make needlework her career. Under the guidance of the sisters who recognized her unusual ability, she became so expert that, upon her graduation from the school, she found a position far above that of a seam- | stress and is making a salary beyond | her fondest dreams. Had it not been for funds provided by the Community Chest, however, | E Katherine would never have had this | chance, as, at the time St. Rose's was made a member of the Chest. the school was on the verge of closing be- cause pf the lack of funds.

He gave a resume of #ome of the various types of work done by the Chest agencies, and brought to the assembled workers a vivid pic- ture of the real need of raising the Chest budget. T. Weed Harvey, busi- ness manager for the A. A. A, presided. This was the eighth meeting in this department. each for different bureaus, and each with its own offi- cials presiding and speaking.
