Groves, 415 Davis street, the presi- dent of the organization. During the year the organization has contributed generously in the mak- ing of garments for the Nursery school. Recently two days of benefit bridge made a financial gift to the school possible. The auxiliary is planning a benefit sale to be held next autumn, the pro- ceeds to be given toward the main- tenance of this Nursery school at Hull House which is sponsored by the Na- tional Kindergarten and Elementary college. BENEFIT A SUCCESS On Wednesday of this week at the Kenilworth club occurred the bridge tea sponsored by the committee of the Neighbors for the work done at the Great Lakes, and it proved a great success. Reports are not quite com- plete but give promise of presenting a very satisfactory sum raised for this cause. Mrs. Joseph Joyce is chairman of the group which also includes Mrs. J. C. Carpenter, Mrs. Merritt DeMent, and Mrs. James Prentiss. Illinois' first penal institution was established at Alton in 1827.
