I LADIES TO PROVIDE SEVENTH COMPANY At a meeting held In the public li brary Wednesday atternoon, an gantlvatlon, to'be known as the ",Sol dlers' Auxiliary of Medford," was 0rmod far the purpose of maintaining the mess fund of the Seventh com pany, and to extend a similar service to the boys who have gono from our community "and vicinity Into other branches of the service. The general purpose of the organization Is stated In the constitution adopted at yester day's meeting to be "to provide for such comfort and necessities of those who enlist In any branch of the serv ice from our vicinity as may not be provided by the government or by oth er societies already in existence.',' The membership is to embrace the parents of recruits, all such being eligible to membership, and others who may be Interested In tho work undertaken by the organization. Membership In the organization may be obtained by ap plication to the chairman of the mem bership committee, Mrs. Vance, and by payment of the initiation fee of fifty cents. Story of Organization. The meetings held'during the week, and the formation of the organization yesterday to fill the gaps left between the activities of other societies for our soldiers, was the outgrowth of ef forts begun by Mrs. Alan Bracklnreed a short time before to arrange a con cert to provide funds for the Seventh company's .mess fund. In the course of this work, the desirability of such an organisation as the Soldiers' Aux iliary, as a permanent affair, became evident, and yesterday's meeting and the formal launching of the organiza tion, was the result. - The officers chosen for the first term are Mrs Bracklnreed, president; Mrs. B. Oa Clark, first vice-president: Mrs. Deuel, second vice-president; Mrs. R. L. Wilson, corresponding sec retary; Miss Brault, recording secre tary; Mrs. C. E. Gates, treasurer; Mrs. Mears. chairman finance-committee; Mrs. Vance, chairman membership committee; Mrs. Frank McKee, chair man entertainment committee. The other charter members who took part in the formation of the organization aro Mesdames Vilas, Heath, G. E. Johnson. Alford,' Ames, Sweat and Gribble. ...... Copies of the auxiliary's constitu tion and by-laws and charter member ship list have been placed at the Com mercial Club, public library and Med ford Book store by the membership committee, where the membership list can be signed by any person who may be Interested in the organisation's purposes. It is planned to hold month ly meetiugs of the membership. A very urgent Invitation is extended es pecially to the mothers of recruits to add their names to the membership list, as this Is Intended to be largely their organization, for the benefit of their boys. More Concerts Comimjt. In addition to the concert already under way, which will be given In the near future, other activities for the comfort of the Seventh company boys on their way to encampment are be ing planned, and preparations made for a definite program of work for the year. One of the fvatnres of the work planned for will be to keep In close communication with the Seventh com pany thru a correspondence arranged for between Captain Vanco and the corresponding secretary of the acriil ary. Mrs. R. L. Wilson, who will also keep In touch with our recruits in other branches of the service. As a part of the program of service, the teaching of French to the mem bers of the Seventh company will be begun today by Mrs. Brackihreed. as sisted by Miss Brault and Mrs. Crib ble. It is hoped there will be time enough before the company Jeaves Medford to give the boys a good start toward the acquirement of a speaking knowledge of the language, which they caa follow up under other In structors In camp: the government has already found It necessary to Is sue a special appeal for French-speaking recruits and volunteers for In struction ia the language, and this necessity will Increase with the num ber of our soldiers sent to France. A general meeting of the members of tho auxiliary will be held at the pablic library on Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock. 1K!S.
