The Record makes the suggest ton
that the proceeds OF the Charity Ball
be used In establishing soup kitchen
for the immediate relief Of tae needy
POOR. II says: OF course there are
men who would impose upon this
charity soup-house, but the percentage
would be very small. Itwould satisfy
the hunger OF the starving and pre-
vent begging. What citizen is there
WI would not prefer contributing to
such a commendable object 10 having
men continue ly coming 10 his home
begging for foodP 1t would serve two
ends--sGvs the citizens from trouble
aud annoyance and the men from the
humiliation of begging, with the pros
pect { / numerous rebuffs." This sug-
gestion 10 a good and timely one.
Put the money in Mr.. Hadden's hands
and thus give the city control Of the
charity.
