"A $10,000 drive, all expected to help," August 1, 1919

A $10,000 Drive. All Expected to Help The drive is on. The workers are busy in the various duties assigned to them. The people of Iowa, both men and women, are expected to come to the support of this movement. Iowa is widely noted for the number and high character of its educational institution, but there is not in all Iowa a home or dormitory for the colored students. The committee urges everyone who has received a subscription card to fill it out and return to chairman at once. Those who have not, committee will mail cards to you or send in your donation to chairman of committee. The Mary Church Terril Club of Des Moines heads the honor roll of Clubs. Christian Culture Club of Washington is second. The Grand Lodge of Knights of Knights of Pythians and Court Calanthe made generous donation at their meeting in Cedar Rapids last week and are first on honor roll of lodges. Rev. C. P. Jones of Osceola is the only minister in the state enrolled thus far in the drive. The people must awaken. It is not like Iowa, the Iowa we have known for the past two years to let any worthy cause suffer. State Historical Society of Iowa (Des Moines)
