FEDERATION NOTES fDIf
you did not attend t h r te
Harvest Festival, you missed some ti(
thing more than a "Pleasant da> ~cr
spent at the Wilkinson Home." ar
You missed first, the "heart to St
heart" talk, with Mrs. FelHnr wK.,, da
In answer to a question. she then- ^4
tinned the "special present needs"
of the children.. The conversation
?\as in itself, a heartwarming ^
occasion- which was proven by the i *e
ready response of the hearers who
in a short time pledged for their ,
clubs, $35.00- $17.00 of which wa< ('^
paid at the thue?for curtains;
who made individual pledges of
sheets, pillow cases, and a suff- *r'
cient number of dresses for each te
child to Jiave three new outfits.
By not being present, you missed
the genuine thrill--?almost like
an electric shock?which ran thru 'a
"the group" at the announcement
that the Culture club of Columbn
had purchased for the Home, and ^1
had delivered, a COW, at the cost
of $200.00, guaranteed to give
four gallons of milk per day.
Those who were absent, misse:
seeing a dream come true. - For along
time, Mrs. Marion Paul has
thought that the Wilkinson Home
lacked sufficient advertisement ^
Through the efforts of the committee
of which she was chairman.
she presented to the group last
Saturday, the # means of giving
statewide, and wider, publicity to he
the work of the Federated cirbs. H
An exceedingly attractive calen th
dar and post- card furnish tv
means. El
Many of the representatives of
clubs carried calendars home to _
be sold. Send to Mrs. Paul for
your allotment. Each calendar is be
in envelope, ready for mailing in be
packages of twenty-five . each. Di
Send for a sufficient number of Oi
packages for each club member Si
to hav<r one and to sell at least
one. The calendars Will make fine T1
Christmas remembrances and the dr
Tiosf cards will, with the addition ar
of one or more Christmas seals, ba
answer the purpose of a Christ- ta
m?? greeting. ce
The report of the activities o' es
the children made by a member tl<
of the gro. p was of great inter- $1!
est. It showed that the children
ft re being trained to be self-help- oti
ful and to be genorous. ea
The smaller girls picked enough
cotton to net them $181.00 with- ch
vhic,h they purchased sho"s, socks' wl
and other necessities. The larg-J re
er girls made a sufficient amount' wl
of money to purchase needed cloth ri<
ing for themselves, to pay $51.00'
rental lor texHwok+v to frny thr ed
