Gift

Few Egyptians are so well posted as to know that the Link Belt Co. of Chicago (silent chains for automobiles) was founded by that same William Dana Ewart who won Egyptian gratitude by using Link Belt profits to found and endow the American University in Cairo.

Last week Egyptians were further grateful to U. S. philanthropy when a new and sumptuous lecture hall for the American University was opened. The donor remains anonymous, but was represented at the dedication, last week, by Mrs. Ruth Litt of Manhattan, a lady of wealth so unobtrusively engaged in good works that her name has seldom heretofore been seen in print.
