Institution the Past Year

The GOOD WOrk Done by This WOmen'S
Institution the Past Year
At the annual meeting, held last Fri
day, the following report was made by
the secretary, Mrs. George D. Hale:
With the close of the present year it
becomes the duty of the managers of In
gleside to make their annual report to
its patrons and friends. The line of work
done during the past year has varied but
little from that of the preceding. The
continued financial depression, and the
loss of all necessary comforts to the
bread winners in our frontier counties.
has brought want and its attendant hard
ships to many accustomed to better
things. In all cases where aid has been
solicited at our door, ways and means
have been discovered to help in
a financial way. Several cases of
touching distress were brought to
the notice of our worthy matron, who,
after careful investigation, supplied
their immediate needs. secured transpor-
tation and sent them to friends. One
woman declared with fearful eyes that
she did not know there was so much
kindness in the world; and again where
special assistance had been rendered to
a family in Osborne county, letters elo-
quent in their spirit of thanksgiving,
have been received from three or four

Mrs. Fl. B. Scudder. One hundred and

My old chum and fellow sufferer from
Potosi is doing good work for the boys up
this way. That's fright Jim, these young
upstairs are crowding us old chaps pretty
close to the wall and if we don't look out
they will soon push us over That was very
good one that you gave Hoskins, but was not
half hard enough. He has sold wall paper
and furniture so long that he has pretty
tongh hide. and that kind of roast doesn't
seem to stick on him but slides off like water
from ducks back. The only thing that
makes him real mad is to call him an A. p.

you out of the nomination for County treas
