ALLIANCE WOMAN'S CLUB
Commendable Work Done in the In
terest of a Worthy Cause
RED CROSS SEAL CAMPAIGN
If any of our reader have sup
posed that the Woman's Club Nl
organized and is being maintained
merely for the entertainment of its
members, as is the case with some
clubs, especially in larger cities, such
readers have had a mi. taken idea
which W6 wish to dispel We speak
more particularly In regard to the
Alliance Woman's Club, but what is
true of this club is probably also
true to a greater or less extent of
other woman's clubs. Besides being in last week's big issue of Th
the means of imparting to its mem
bers a greater degree of social cul
ture and affording excellent edu a
tional advantages, the Alliance Wo
man's Club is one of the most active
organizations in the city along benev
olent ami charitable lines.
Our readers all know something of
the effort that is being made in Al
liance to sell the Red Croaa Christ
ma.s Seals and the object for which
they are being sold, namely, to as
sist in stamping cut tlx
plague, tuberculosis, but
we have been dilatory in
members of the Alliance
Club tlie mead of credit ami prais.
deserved for their pan in this
great work Many others have be-n
interested in the good cause but It
remained for the Woman's Club to
take the initiative In this city At
the beginning of this year's Ked
Cross Seal campaign they ordered
fifty dollars' worth of stamps, with
the determination to sell that ma n
or more if prs.ible. We are happy
to say that their enterprise has
made it necessary to send in a rush
order for more.
In selling the.se stamps they are
permitted to retain tifty per cent of
the proceeds tor tin use of the club
work if they choose to do so, the
other fifty pet cent going to the K.d
Cross Society to assist in the work
of stamping out tuberc ulosis.
Instead, however, of using this for
some purpose in which only the mem
bers would be interested, they de
cided to use it for t-Uc public good.
A public drinking fountain is some
tltlng that every city ought to have
but with which few cities are sup
plied. The Woman's Club decided to
MM their share of the proceeds of
the lied Cross stamp sales this year
to erect a public drinking fountain
in Alliance. Should the amount be
insuffic ient to defray the expense of
erecting such fountain as they
wish, they will use the amount so
MCUre4 as the nucleus of a fund for
that purKse. We regret very much
that we were not informed in regard
to this in time to have published ii
Her
ald. We are confident, had suffi
cient publicity been given to this
fact earlier, that the amount raised
before Christmas for the fountain
would have been ample to cover the
cuitire expense of the same, beside
raising an equal amount for the
worthy cause for which the Ked
Cross Seals were originated. Much
as we are interested in the efforts
that are being made to stamp out
tuberc ulosis, we feel like using more
great white of the t tamps be aus,- of the ussist-

Woman's drinking ."Uittain in Alliance
In addition to having the U d
t msh stamps on sale at different
phut, in the city, several ladies, in
appropriate lied Cross costumes,
have been selling the stamps in the
store and on the si reels, realizing
twenty three dollars from the sale of
th same on Monday alon :-. Follow

hav bi en engaged in this work:

We consider this an opportune

have wlcihed for some time to pub

oftieers and members of the Alliance
Woman's Club.
