CLUBTREGENTHARR/SBURG CHAPTER, OAR PRESIDING OFFICERS OF PROMINENT ORGANIZATIONS OF WOMEN PLEDGED TO THE BEST INTERESTS OF HARRTSBURG. Harrisburg club women are sharing in the glory of the municipal celebra tion. for they are doing their part well, both for the "City Beautiful" and the city's welfare. Civic societies, musical and patriotic orgainzations, charitable institutions and missionary societies claim much of the time of these women, who are working: always with an eye to the future generation, their comfort and their needs. Harrisburg Civic Club The fame of the Harrisburg Civic Club has spread all over the land and the activities of this earnest body of! women, banded together 17 years ago! to Improve the city, have, been an in- ] spiration to other women and other I clubs in many places. From its first ] work of placing waste paper recep tacles and securing the passage of an ordinance prohibiting throwing waste paper in the streets, down through •. organizing the League of Good Citi-1 zenship in the schools, employing a j "White Wings" to demonstrate how i to keep a city clean and its active co operation in the campaign for munic ipal improvements in 1901 the Civic Club has been always alert to the best interests of the city, and generous in its contributions not only of money, but in the time and work of its mem bers. Its campaigns against (lies and destructive insects have been produc tive of untold good and its garden schools and flower growing contests have taught the children much about cultivation beside giving them a taste for the out-door life. In the parade of school children this week in the municipal celebration the Civic Club is furnishing the costumes for all the youngsters of the out-door schools. The club was incorporated last year and it hopes soon to receive the be quest of a clubhouse willed it by Mrs I William Fleming.

It is occupying its new building at Fourth and Walnut streets, built and equipped a year ago at a cost of $150,000 and is carrying out its four fold idea of helping young women in religious, educational, social and phy sical ways, through its various depart ments. Bible classes, shop meetings and Sunday services, night classes in the languages, domestic science and arts; receptions, socials and excellent gymnasium with a special member ship last year of 300 girls tell some ways of helpfulness. The association provides a home for 50 girls in the building and serves 200 noon lunches every day as well as carrying the four fold work to girls of ten factories of the city. The officers of the Y. W. C. A. are: General secretary. Miss Ella M. Stitt; president, Mrs. John W. Reily; vice presidents, Mrs. J. K. Smith, Mrs. E. Z. Wallower, Mrs. George Preston Mains. Miss M.

Rolwrta Dial) row Lloyd Sunshine Society The Roberta Disbrow Lloyd Sun shine Society has for many years stood for "brightening up" many of the darkest lives and homes in the com munity. Children especially seem to be the care of this organization though many grown-ups bask In its warm rays also. When the play grounds movement was in Its infancy ".Sunshine" maintained and personally conducted three school playgrounds, and felt wholly repaid by the joy given the children and by the evidence of real lasting benefit displayed by them. As is well known, many homes are cheered during the holiday season and shut-Ins are always remembered many times a year with a greeting and a gift. The society has about A score of crippled children on its list far help of various kinds, from spending j months of the summer In the country ; to trips to specialists in the citlefc and ; there are many who are to-day Bying | proofs of the worth of this Hi* of I Sunshine work.

This second oldest music I s club in the United States has grown 1 < from a limited membership to an in- j corporated body of over 500. It has I introduced to the public for the .first j time many artists of international i reputation and has fostered the talent of ambitious young students, many i of whom are now recognized leaders , in the musical field of the city. It | has stimulated a desire for greater ( efficiency in its active membership ; and has provided for the associate membership an entertaining course of I instruction seldom found outside the j schools of music. Special evening I concerts are given with out-of-town ! artists and others with members of j the club appearing on the programs. | These muslcales are free to every member of the club.

When the great cry for as sistance went forth. It was heard and heeded and a sewing society formed by members of the Sisterhood, which meets every week. Articles made have been sent to the Nursery Home, the Harrisburg Hospital, to the Jew ish Orphans' Home at Erie and much local needy Work assisted. It is not an organization for charity, although when the treasury permits, good will contributions are sent to local chari ties. The work of the Sisterhood is constructive and educational doing the ! real woman's work of an organization j in reaching out to places where only ] a woman can minister. While a j church organization, it is proud of the fact that It is the only one broad enough to reach out beyond the bounds of Its own membership and I extend a helping hand to any local j organization of worthy aims, regard less of creid, really the true philan thropy. The officers of the Ohev Sholom Sisterhood include: President. Mrs. Otto J. Buxbaum; vice-president, Mrs. Samuel Friedman: treasurer, Mrs. Belle Stern; recording secretary, Mrs. : Julius Gutman; corresponding secre tary, Mrs. Charles J. Freund. Harrisburg W. C. T. t. Without dividing honors too closely, the Woman's Christian Temperance i Union claims some share in the city's march of human progress. From the i time of Pennsylvania's organization, i March 3, 1875, the women of Harris burg have promoted the cause of total ' i abstinence from all Intoxicating liquors, and the abolition of the liquor traffic by every wise and expedient means. Harriaburg has three unions, each . working through its own departments i to abolish ignorance by knowledge, to I displace disease by health, to eradl . cate vice by virtue, to dispel darkness . by light. The organization is educative and preventive, rather the ameliorative ! and, as world's and national move , j mentß, works through over forty de partments for the welfare of the home. Through its educational system, the W. C. T. U. has given its women com plete intellectual ability to participate ; in political discussion and remain reg -1 nant In the sphere distinctly Its own. 5 They desire tho ballot, for it is the " weapon they will use to strike at evil ' and strike to kill. With it they get a 1 vision of a saloonless world in 1930, j a saloonless nation In 1920, Pennsyl " vanla white, Harrisburg a cleaner city ■' and John Barleycorn an outlaw. The ■' officers of the Harrisburg W. C. T. U. . are: President, Mrs. S. O. Goho; first ' vice-president. Mrs. Harry Leonard; f second vice-president. Mrs. H. B. • Hartelcr, whose record for member s ship equals that of Mrs. Ellenberger; i third vice-president. Mrs. Samuel f Gardner; corresponding secretary, i Mrs. William H. Cooper: recording e secretary.

Daughters of the American Revolution V Borne out of the past, Its lnspira i tion the patriotism of the founders of t this Grea* Republic, the Daughters of f the American Revolution have been s always ready to cherish, maintain and i. extend the institutions of American freedom; to foster true patriotism - and love of country and aid securing - for mankind all the blessings ct Lih !. erty. The Harrisburg chapter, D. A. R.. has been quite a factor of the city s. during its 21 year 3 of existence, clear ing up doubtful records of history and t perpetuating noble deeds of brave c men. It has erected memorial gates 1 at the old »Paxton churchyard, with ? bronze tablets bearing the names of 1 Revolutionary soldiers who are burled i there, and assisted with other chap- > ters in the memorial gateway to the soldiers burled in the Silver Spring 1 graveyard. « Believing thoroughly in Patriotic i Education, prizes in gold are annually i awarded at special exercises to the < Senior girls of the Central High School i ] for the best essays on a patriotic sub- < ject selected by the chapter. Girls of Revolutionary ancestors are supported in the Hindman settlement school of ; Kentucky and the Berry school of Georgia. The chapter heartily re- 1 sponded to the needs of soldiex-s in the Spanish-American war and to the Red Cross Appeal for relief in this present European war. When the Liherty Bell stopped in the city, on July 5, this chapter prepared a handsome laurel wreath which was hung on the bell by little John Bevan Pearson, a lineal descendant of John Harris, founder of Harrisburg, and also fur nished the copy for a folder giving a sketch of the Bell presented to 6,000 school children.
