Annual Report OF the Protestant Indus
trial Association.
1t is with feelings of gratitude that we are
| able to report an increase of work done by
the association and in the amount of money
paid to those we have employed
1t is indeed an encouraging fact and an in
centive to US In our hbors that the record
shows more accomplished for good in the
past year than in any of the twenty-nine
years of our existence.
To the friends who have kindly given of
their means this report will, we trust, be
equally encouraging, as it tells of their gifts
being worthily used in benefting those who
are willing to give in return for what thew
receive.
The statistics present but faint idea of
the good accomplished, and only those who
have been instrumental in dispensing and
have seen and felt how grateful the recip-
tents have been can realize in part the suffer-
ing relieved, the blessings bestowed Being
the only organized society in the city exclus
lively for the benefit of Protestant families
and individuals, our association appeals
strongly to the sympathy of many of our
older New England families, especially to the
descendants of Puritan ancestry, who have
ever believed that labor was not and is not
humiliating, and that charity, if it may be SO
called, cannot be better bestowed than in
giving work to those who are willing to labor
and that 1.-THE laborers are worthy of their
hire This is the distinctive object of the
society, and what good we do and hope to do |
viii be by work and fair compensation for |
it, SO that whoever gives and whoever re-
ceives may be benefited thereby. It is to be |
hoped still more interest will be taken in the |
association during the coming year that the |
benefits it bestows to those in need of work |
may be increased largely, and we feel conf |
dent this can be secured if the believers in an |
institution of this kind viii but examine what |
we are doing. To this end we cordially in |
avenue, that they may become interested |
therein. etaI -eFss,t st
