CHICAGO’S TASK NEARLY HALF
ACCOMPLISHED

Telegraphing and writing in to the
Endowment Office in Taylor Hall last
week, eleven local endowment districts
of the country have made reports on the
progress of the campaign to date.

Over $96,000 has been collected by the
Chicago district from Bryn Mawr alum-
nae and their families. The second hun-
dred thousand of the Chicago quota will

be elicited from the general public. A
list of potential donors has been prepar-
ed by Grace Douglas Johnston (Mrs.
Morris L. Johnston), ’02, and Alta Ste-
vens Cameron (Mrs. Anson Cameron),
’09, and teams of canvassers are ready to
spring out when the signal is given
John McCutcheon, a well-known car-
toonist, husband of Evélyn Shaw Mc-
Cutcheon, ’14, has made a cartoon which
is being used as a poster for the drive,
and other posters and buttons are being
prepared and placed all over the city in
busses and shops. Julia Thompson, ex-
10, dressed in a bright yellow smock and
seated on a ladder, is painting a Bryn
Mawr advertisement on a very promi-
nent wall opposite the Rush Street
bridge. Her subject is a girl in a cap
and gown holding up a lighted lantern,
and under her the slogan, “Bryn Mawr
College Looking for $2,000,000.” The
same design is used on the buttons.

Cut Toys for Endowment

A Bryn Mawr Toy Shop hasbeen or-
ganized in Winnetka, Illinois, at the res-
idence of Carmelita Chase Hinton (Mrs.
Sebastian Hinton), ’12, where the Bryn
Mawr women of Winnetka and their
husbands work, cutting out and painting
bright-colored toys, which are to be sold
at a counter in Stevens’ department store
in Chicago during the drive.

TOTAL FOR CALIFORNIA $3,401
At a preliminary campaign meeting of
the Bryn Mawr Club of Northern Cali-
fornia, $3350 was reported already pledg-
ed by individual subscriptions,—which,
with the $51 reported from headquarters,
makes the total from that district $3,401.

‘To Give “Atlantic City Boardwalk”
The St. Louis committee of the Bryn
Mawr Endowment believes that it has

exhausted its field for individual dona-

tions in raising its first quota of $15,000,

jand is depending upon features and en-

tertainments for raising the extra $10,-
000 which it has accepted.

Bryn Mawr alumnae have combined
with the alumnae of Smith College and
Washington University, St. Louis, to
give, from April 5 to 15, a large joint

fair, entitled “The Atlantic City Board-

walk.” They expect that this will ne;
them getween $60,000 and $90,000
which is to be divided equally among the
three colleges. Emily Westwood Lewis
(Mrs. Joseph W. Lewis), graduate stu-
cent '98-’99, chaiman of the program com-
mittee, has already cleared $7000 on ad-
vertisements. The advance publicity has
been managed by Edna Fischel Gell-
horn (Mrs. George Gellhorn), ’00.

Philadelphia Drive Opened Monday
Twenty Philadelphia alumnae in caps
and gowns patrolled the city Monday
and Tuesday to paste Bryn Mawr post-
ers on the windshields of automobiles
and in shop-windows. The posters have
the words, “Bryn Mawr Endowment,”
above a life-sized picture of a lantern.
$65,500 has been raised towards the
Pennsylvania quota, which is half a mil-
lion.
