normally out OF work ana poor. we
have not felt it was necessary to take
carpenters, tailors, clerks and other
people who have been thrown ont OF
work for the first time in their lives
and put them to outdoor work, in this
extreme climate. It has seemed best
to help these families to provi-
sions and wood in a quiet way,
and at the least possible expense,
waiting until normal conditions
return when they will find the
work to which they are accus-
toned. This class of people have been
regularly provided for through the
mayors Office and by funds contrib
uted by our citizens. We have only
needed about three or four thousand
dollars. so far, to carry on this work.
With this money we have purchased
provisions of our wholesalers at cost
to them. Then through our police de-
partment we have distributed this
without any additional cost whatso-
ever. In this manner we have taken
the necessities of life at a minimum
cost and put them in the hands Of the
needy unemployed. In this manner
we have been able to help ten families
for the same amount of money that it
would have cost to have given one
family work"
