NEW YORK
Gotham Gossip.
Now York , March I L To raise a mil
lion dollars In twelve days may seem
to bo a feat bordering on the miracu
lous , but It It ) a commonplace to C. S.
Ward , the "short campaign" organizer
of the Young MOII'H Christian associa
tion , Mr. Wiird'n profession takes him
to cltloB throughout the country , where
bin mission Is to persuade folk who
have money to donate ti goodly part of
It to the Y. M. C. A. And he always
succeed ! ! not itlwnyH at the rate of n
million In a dozen dayu , It Is true , but
always to the greatest capacity of the
field In which ho works. He has had
no less than $12,000,000 given him for
carrying on the Y , M. C. A. work dur
ing the last five years. Just now New
York Y. M. C. A. leaders are consider
ing a plan for engaging his services In
u campaign that will break all records.
It was In Philadelphia that the
whirlwind campaign to raise a million
was carried to successful completion
under the direction of Mr. Ward.
When ho announced that ho had set
twelve dny as the time limit for nils-
ing a million In the Quaker city , his
associates were fearful that ho had at
last "bit oil moro than he could masti
cate. " Philadelphia is notoriously
alow , but on this occasion the charge
of slowness was proved to bo a libel.
At the wlndup of the campaign it was
found that $25,063.72 over the round
million hud boon collected.
Henrietta Croaman Coming to Norfolk.
The biggest laugh of the year will
he when Henrietta Crosman comes to
the Norfolk Auditorium in Percy Mac-
Kayo's satirical burlesque , "Anti-Mat
rimony. " In this play Miss Crosman
plays the part of a minister's wife who
has a distinct HOIIRO of the humorous.
Her Bister and brother-in-law decide
that they are believers In the creed of
no wedding ceremony , although they
have already been married. These
young pcoplo think that marriage Is
the cause of all unhappiness. The
minister's wife realizes that they have
lost all sense of the ridiculous , and
oho resolves that the way to restore
them to their senses is lo restore their
ticnso of the ridiculous. To do this
she pretends to be converted to their
cause and the consequence is that the
audience is kept in a constant roar of
laughter.

s OCIETY
Woman's Part In Town Building.
\Vlillo it good business is essential
to making a town a pleasant place to
live , yet bimlnoBS IB not nit that is
required Whllo a man is contented
If his business is prosperous , how
bout the women of his household ?
'hoy ' require more than broad , butter
nd a decent frock to bo happy and
Contented they must bo Interested in
heir neighbors , their town and their
urroundlngs. To bo attractive to
trangors , a town must extend the
lad hand not only to the man In a
uslnesa way , but to his mother , wife
nd daughter. When a fnmlly moves
nto town , it should bo ono of the
rst pleasures of the neighbor wo-
ion or duty , If not a pleasure to
nil upon the pcoplo who have just
noved In and make them fcol that
Norfolk is glad that they decided to
ocato hero , and that hereafter they
111 bo counted ono of us. Don't
.vnlt . to sec what church they , belong
o , what their club affiliations are or
vhat lodge they may hold member-
hip In , but go at once to see them.
rVutnon probably do not realize what
t means to a stranger to sit alone in
or house for days after she has mov-
d to n now town , without a friendly
ace darkening her door , while her
noughts still dwell upon the old
onio and old surroundings. Is it any
wonder she does not llko the new
own and is homesick to go back
where Hho knows people and whore
.hey know her and call her by her
rst name ? Ono of the most essential
eatures of making a town look geode
o u man is to have peace and content
n his home , and it is a duty that the
women of a town owe their husbands
s well as themselves M help bring
his about , welcoming newcomers in
manner that shows that wo are real-
y glad they have come to live with
s. While the men are trying to build
greater Norfolk , let the women do
heir share , and in no bettor way can
hey do this than to help make new-
omers feel that Norfolk is the best
ilaco on earth to live.
