Charity Bail for Sunbeam League November 17 The S unbe a in league an- nouinces that its annual Charity baillwill be held on Saturday, November 17. at the Hotel Stevyens. The expeîîses of the kindergarten for sick and crippled children main- tained by the league are defrayed en- tirely by the profits of this party, the annual charity card party, member- ship dues, and voluntary contribu- tions. The organization was incorporated twenty-two years ago by a small group of young women who recog- nized the need of nmental diversion for children confined to charity wards of children's hospitals. Brightly colored scrap books and toys were brought to entertain the children; the "story lady," Miss Georgene Faulkner,, spent many happy hours at their bedsides l)ringing fairy tales and humorous rhymes to their undeveloped imagin- ations; Carnie Jacobs Bond con- tributed ber talent to the growing cause. The need of this type of work became so. apparent that paid teach- ers were employed to direct tlie rec- reaction of these afflicted babies. Today the Sunbeam league of Chi- cago holds an enviable p)osition in the list of incorporated philanthropic or- ganizations, is endorsed Ik' the Chi- cago Association 'of Commerce, and lolds its monthly meetings at the Flotel Stevens, it is announced. The outstanding. acliievement1 ot. the year was the opening of a kinder- g arten at Children's Memorial hios- pital. The league 'also enlarged its uinit at Spalding school for the spjas- tic chil(lren of pre-sclîuol age. Tlhe waiting lîst for this school is very long. Thesc children are îiot eligible for public school traininîg untîl the age of 5. Under supervision of traincd teachers they are tauglit to use their crippled hands and legs to the vcrv' best advantage. The results. at Spalding school have been exceptionally gratifying for without this intense treatment at an early age, most of tiiese children woul(l ne ver gîve evidence of possess- ing the mental standard necessary to admit them to the grades, the league announces. Each case which responds to treatment is a life salvaged from a physi'cal handicap sufficient.ly severe to falsely indicate the lack of mental ability.' The. league also supports two kmn- dergartens at Cook -County Chil- dren's. hospital, one at Home for Con- valescent Women, and Children, and also oneý at, Martha Washington Home for, Dependent Cnippled Chil- dren, caringý for about 14,000 children, yearly. To Be Dinner Hosts Mr. and Mrs. William Moulton, 235 Raleigh road, Kenilworth, spent five days of last week in Detroit. The Moultons will entertain eighteen guests at dininer Saturday in honor of Mrs. Moulton's father, Charles Jor- dan, who is leaving in the near future for his winter home at Sarasota, Fia., Novembe.r 15, 1934 WILMETTE L'IFIE
