The several participating charities are dependent upon the money they receive from the Chest to carry on their work, it i explained, and should the residents of the village fail to contribute the amount which has been clcsignated-$25,000-such plendid institutions as Arden Shore and Infant \V elf are will suffer. · . ... a · .... -. I · r ... .. , ( Tl1e officers and campaign committct: of the Chest association feel that the honor of Wilmette is at stake in this matter and they arc determined that the drive must not fail. In some districts, because of sickness and other good or indifferen.t reasons there is a 1 shortage of workers, it is stated. There Iarc men \Yho like to fu lfill their cornmunity obligations and .to such who have not bern asked to help in this j work, the directors of the campaign l·now extend an invitation to comm unicatc \Yith the district captains in their neig-hborhoods and offer their services ! in thi-; notable work. \ District captains in the campaign , arc: 1 . :-; . ~1.
