Together with hoer commiUee a . most interesting and plea'sant afternoon had been planned. Miss Sara Place, the superintendent of the Infant Welfare society of Chicago, came out to Kenilworth to tell the members about the work the society is doing and while thi·s was fairly clear in the minds of most of her listeners. it was an added inspiration to hear her tell oi the progress the society has made and to hear the little intimate details of some of the intere'3ting cases the stations are helping. This is "Infant Welfare Week" and the drive is on to raise fund s. Every resident will be approached and any gi ft to the society will be appreciated. Philip Armour, Ill of Chicago, who ha s recently been elected to the pre5i dency of the Infant \Velfare societ\', also told of the work and its value and its needs. He suggested that in making wills or in planning to leave sums of money to charitable projects to remember thi·3 society. Its need is that it be endowed. Lawyers are urged to remember this when thev have cli ents asking advice as to the distribution of their property and to encourage gifts to this most worthy cause. The rooms were most arti·stically beautified by masses of ca11a lilies and forsythia arranged by Mrs. Bentley McCloud and Mrs. Hugh Foresma n, and a most delicious tea wa·3 served.
