From divers sources {his sum had increased to $2000 in 1907, and at Supreme Convention that year, after much discussioo, a plan was finally adopted t o use this money for educational pur poses—the suggestion coming from Nebraska Chapters—to be known as P. E. 0. Educational Fund, and to be loaned to w orthy girls, girls who have completed the equivalent o f a high school course, and who hare attained the age of 18 years. Under the rules adopted loans are not made for a longer term than fire years, and shall not exceed in amount $350 to one applicant, if the amount is to cover only one year o f study, or $500 if the loan is to be used for move than one year’s work. A girl is not asked to give securi tv. nor must she be a P. E. 0. Most girls have P. E. 0. recom mendation, but this is not neces sary. The name of a girl bor rowing from this fund is never divulged.
