Endeavorers VIM help the poor.

The local Christian Endeavorers
are preparing to brighten large
number of homes at Christmas. For
several years it has been their custom
to furnish families, which are unable
to provide for themselves, a large
turkey. This year the plan is to be
carried out upon even larger scale
than before. Each of the society has
already pledged himself to supply a
certain number OF offerings.
But the young people desire to give
others an opportunity to join in this
worthy undertaking. 1t is never pos
sible to convey to the public an idea
of what happiness it brings into these
poor families to be presented with
this Offering of peace and good will,
every family in the city and county
would gladly come forward with an
offer of assistance. Great care is
taken to distribute the turkeys Judi
ciously, and no one need fear that
their giving will be amiss.
So plea is here made, to every
one, whether a resident of the town
or county, for helping to make the
homes of the poor in our city and
surroundings, brighter and happier.
Those desiring to contribute, will
please send their turkeys dressed, to
the residence of Mr.. Jas. NJ. Glass,
corner Seventh and Campbell, on
Wednesday Dec. 23rd.
