ANNIVERSARY OF
EMERGENCY AID
Camp Hill Workers to Cele
brate Second Birthday With
Dinner in the Per.n-Harris
The Camp Hill Emergency Aid,
possibly the most flourishing depart
ment of their Civic Club, of which
Mrs. L. H. Dennis is will
celebrate its second anniversary
Saturday evening, March 22, with a
dinner at 7 o'clock in the Penn-
Harris.
The Aid, organized March 22,
1917, as a department of the Civic
CJub during the presidency of Mrs.
James Millhouse, with Mrs. Anne
Wallace LaDomus as organizer. Mrs.
Carl K. Deen was appointed chair
man of surgical dressings and Mrs.
William R. W. Pound, chairman of
tl e knitting department. Mrs.
George Cook is treasurer.
Thousands of surgical dressings,
hundreds of knitted garments, hun
dreds of pieces of refugee clothes
and several hundred dollars in cash
have been given to the war suffer
ers. The call fir volunteer nurses
during the influenza epidemic was
responded to heartily by the women
of the Aid.
Jolly Time Planned
After two years of strenuous work
the organization will close its year
with a subscription dinner in ' the
new hotel. Every contributor and
every worker is cordially invited to
attend.
The men of the town have played
a big part in the Aid's success as
they took on themselves all the ti
nanciai business outside of what
the club gave, so the dinner is for
them, too.
The committee asks that all wish
ing to attend, notify Mrs. Carl K.
Deen or Mrs. J. X. Armstrong,
treasurer of the Civic Club before
noon on Friday, accompnning their
request with the usual check.

MISS REPPLIER
AT CIVIC CLUB
Address on "Gospel of Amuse
ment," Clever and Witty;
Upsetting Traditions
Miss Ttepplier, of Philadel
phia, brilliant penwoman, whose
fame is countrywide, came to the
Civic Club yesterday afternoon to
deliver her lecture on "The Gospel
of Amusement."
There was a capacity audience,
held breathless by the total upset
ting of all estabished traditions of
late years along lines of public
amusements, for the speaker, al
though clever and witty, took away
all ideals and left nothing in their
place—for she had no suggestions
to give.
Miss Rcpplier, a host in herself,
with unbounded resources within j
her own mind does not recognize the '
fact that others are not so gifted us I
she and must needs have careful
pushing along the right ways of,
pleasure and physical development, j
She laughs at the out-door play
grounds. the games, the dances we
have been told are so excellent for
the children ,as well as amusements
for grownups, but officers no substi
tute.
With rare satirical humor she
handled her subject, receiving ap
plause and outbursts of laughter all
along the way, but the lecture
sounded more like a man speaking
against the foibles of woman than a
woman addressing her sister work-j
crs. •!
Later, the guests had the pleasure
of greeting Miss Repplier at a tea
held in the lower rooms of the club
house. Airs George Preston Mains
and Miss Katharine Cox presided
over the teacups assisted by mem
bers of the house committee.
Nominate and Elect
Prior to the lecture the club made
nominations for officers to be
elected at the April meeting and the
various departments elected the
folowing hads: Municipal depart
ment, Xvliss Rachel-Pollock, chair
man; Airs. Solomon Hiney, vice
chairman; educational department.
