X115 :L ihhlkm' uit: I CIVIC WELFARE COMMITTEE HOUGH the winter has been a difficult one, the Marlborough Charity Organization is still very able to meet any emergency as has been proved in the relief of the recent earthquake sufferers. The charity dues of the first quarter came to three hundred eleven dollars, which was sent to the Community Chest. The second quarter, one hundred sixty-eight dollars were collected and divided between the Mary S. Caswell Scholarship Fund and the Orthopaedic Hospital. During the third quarter the Long Beach earthquake occurred, causing a great deal of suffering. Marlborough was one of the first institutions organized for relief work. ln a rush campaign one hundred eighty-two dollars was raised in two days, and everyone volunteered in the making of dressings for the injured. 3,660 were made the first dayl Another activity of the year has been the giving of chain luricheons to raise money for the Mary S. Caswell Scholarship Fund. ln this way many delightful parties of all types have been given, and two birds have been captured with one net. The chain was begun with a party for five at the ranch of Ann Chamberlain, Chairman of the Student Scholarship Committee. All of these girls gave a party for fourg each of every four gave a party for three, and so on until that branch of the chain had vanished. Everyone had to pay fifty cents, and a very creditable sum was raised with delightful parties along the way. lt has been a real pleasure to see the good will of the Student Association this year. We feel that, according to the true defini- tion of charity, we have really done our bit in this year of great need.
