PERSONAL- SOCIAL
WOMAN'S LEAGUE
FORMS A CHAPTER
Local Hcd Cross Receives As
sistance Wednesdays From
S'iftv Lutheran Women
A big factor in the worn of the
Red Cross Society Is the Lutheran
"Woman's League, which has formed
a chapter for United Red Cross
"Work.
Every Wednesday afternoon the
headquarters in Walnut street are
reserved for this league and about
half a hundred Lutheran women
work assiduously from 2 to 5 o'clock
on hospital supplies.
The Lutheran Woman's League of
Harrisburg and vicinity was organ
ised last February, at a large mass
meeting held in Bethlehem Lutheran
Church, Mrs. Chester Buck, of Camp
"Hill, being elected president. More
than one thousand members had
been enrolled by the efficient mem
bership committee and one thou
sand additional memebers is the goal
for the next public gathering in Oc
tober.
The object of this league in con
nection with those of Chicago, Pitts
burgh and Philadelphia, is to pro
mote a closer co-operation among
the women of the various divisions
of the Lutheran Church and to sup
port a salaried student secretary to
keep in touch with Lutheran girls
in colleges, universities, normal
schools and summer conferences.
An important unit of the Harris
burg and vicinity league is the Luth
eran denomination of Lancaster
which has a large percentage of
membership.
