Tho prize list Is an especially attractive one, as many valuable donations have been received. Tho judging will begin promptly at 3 o'clock. ,At tho conclusion of the dog show a hand some pedigreed Airedale puppy will be auc tioned to the highest bidder.

"' MRS. HUDSON REPLIES TO Y. W. C. A. CRITICISM President of Central Branch Proud of Deficit, Citing Aid lo Girls Mrs. Joseph IV. Hudson, president of tho Central Branch, Young Woman's Chrlstlar Association, has nnswercd critics with a statement of the history of tho organization from Its foundation, Its ambitions and Its rearonu for certain actions which Drought aOUt the criticisms. The stand of the Central Branch was ex plained at a dinner given by the board of managers to several ministers of the city, for tho purpose of explaining the Hlms of thi association and Its reasons for tho break with the national hoard. A fight to oust tho present management was started last January, according to Mrs. Hudson, and tho statement which follows Is the first official comment sho has made con cerning the controversy: "Forty-eight years ago.'ln conference with John Wanama'ker. a band of Christian women started this organization." said Mrs. Hudson. "They started" It for the relief and the aid of working girls whc need the' protection of older women. They started It without i a cent and it has grown to enormous propor tions. We have pronerties worth more than $1,000,000. In our Central Branch we have 258 girls, fortv-slx in tho annex and seventy-five In the Kensington Branch. Nearly 200 of those girls get 10 a week or less and we give them a home, food, light, heat and laundry for a very small sum. Wo care for 25.000 persons annually In our transient de partment. We take care of all girls who come here from the country and are not used to city ways. We have taken In runaway girls at all hours of the night. Nowhere else Is there an association which can care for so many transients. "Those who would put us out of office have mado public the fact that we have a deficit. Certainly wo have a deficit, wo have always had one nnd we are not ashamed of lt In times like these It Is Impossible to make, ends meet and give the girls the home they must havo at the price they can pay. With all the talk of birr wages being paid to girls theso days you muBt remember that there are many factories that have not raised the girls' wages one cent. "Wo havo been criticized for wanting to put another mortgage on our property. MRS. IVOR MACFARLANE V Ger- W - 'WpW HHHH her mar- MV''' ' .JHHI vVliiTOlB J III W I LM i II STARTING FOR A STROLL Of course we do. There aro Just two things to do either get mere money or shut our doors. Now. If never berorc, the girl-, need a home nnd we nre going to stick and Give them one In the face of all criticism. "We aro criticized for being narrow nnd bigoted becauso wo adhere to the old-fashioned ways and make our girls confess a religion nnd n creed. The sayini; of the old formula of the Church has been cut out by the national board and since we will' not cut It out wo havo separated from that board. "We will not adopt what Is known ns tho metropolitan plan and this Ih another reason for our separation from the national board and the criticism of others who would put -us out of olllce. This metropolitan plan takes tho power of leadership of the Y. W. C. A. nway frrm the Church and tho churchwomen and puts It In the hands of a few who may or may not be church members and who may or may not be familiar with the work of tho association. This wo hnvo n-fused to do nnd as a result have been called 'autocrats.' "The charge that our books aro not audited properly nnd that the accounts do not bal ance Is without foundation. Our books aro audited every year and you are all cordially Invited to Inspect them at any time you wish."

Mackcy Suggests Stale Zones Equipped With Institu tions for Purpose Division of tho State Into zones equipped with Institutions to furnish the education that should be Martcd at the very bedside of men crippled in France or In Industrial life Is urged by Harry A. Mackcy, chairman of the Workmen's Compensation Board of Pennsylvania, as the first step toward voca tional education, or "re-education" to-fit these men for future work. . Pennsylvania, ho said, Is foremost In this movement, through a census being taken by the Department of Labor and Industry, which will enable it to co-operate with the Federal Government In meeting the emergency. He said the Workmen's Compensation Board Is now confronted by many problems to work out for the best Interest of Injured workmen, due to tho Intensive prosecution of Industry. Speaking of plans for meeting this "after-the-war'' emergency, Mr. Mackey said: "After two and a half years' operation of tho workmen's compensation law, we have many problems to work out for the best In terests of tho Injured workmen, In common with those arising out of tho European war. The Intensive prosecution of Pennsylvania's Industry has produced many disabled men and. of course. It goes without saying that the war will send back home thousands who will have sustained such Injuries as, to render them permanent cripples. "Wo must no longer countenance the usual thought of nn Injured man that his misfor tune has left him a useless citizen or that he must depend upon the kindness of his friends or the charity of his community. Englnnd, France. Belgium. Italy and Canada have demonstrated tho fact that there Is no reason why men permanently crippled should cease to bo self-sustaining and ueeful producing elements of society. "Opportunity for vocational education or, rs It Is termed nbroad. "re-education." must be provided for men Injured at tho front as well as for those who have suffered In o'ur industrial establishments In order that those In the uniform might have the necessary ma terials to win the war. The legless, armless and sightless men need not become depend ents uon charity, but under proper ro-edu-catlon can again nssert themselves In pro ductive vocations. "Pennsylvania already Is In the fortmost rank In this movement. The Department of Labor and Industry Is making nn Industrial census of the State, which places us In a position to co-operate with the Federal Gov ernment and to intelligently equip ourselves to meet this present duty. The State should be divided into proper zones, and each one of theso subdivisions should ho equipped with nn Institution to furnish the education that ought to be started at tho very bedside of the Injured man during his period of con valescence. "These men. If re-educated after the methods employed In France and England, will soon go back to their old employer with a training to effect an accommodation lo their crippled condition and an Increased efficiency that will render them scarcely less produc tive than before their Injuries."

The Oermantown house has a war garden which, tended with extraordinary skill and patience.

Outing Held Sunday The Jubilo Social held Its fourth annual picnic on Sunday at Wlssahlckon Creek, in strict compliance with the picnic regulations of the food administration. The feature of the outing was the mcagerness of the lunch, and after the luncheon had been served the members and guests were informed that they were eating two meals irt one. In making plans for the picnic It was decided to add a wartime flavor to the fourth annual affair. The two-ln-one picnic resulted. The sand wiches were smaller and fewer, the fruit less and the fine pastry and desserts con spicuous by their apparent absence. Miss Anna Kohl is president of the Jubilo Social. The other officers1 are Miss Sadie Flngroth, treasurer, and Miss Anna Fletsch man, secretary.
