In its work the Union Charity AS
soclation enters IN entirely different
field from that of the Poor Depart
ment. While 1t aids many people, its
principal object is to train children of
poor parents so as to inspire them
with a love of that independence
which comes with being able to pro.
vide for themselves. The children who
receive the attention of the Association
are principally girls. They are taught
how to perform various household
duties, and do the work in a careful,
thorough manner.

An admirable feature of the system
has been the permitting, where posi-
bic OF poor people to be cared for at
their homes, and this Is much uppre-
clated. Household ncccssarlcs and
medicine have been sent to their
homes, and thus is removed what
some Of the dependents regard "the
stigma of being sent to the poor
house" Especially are aged men and
women opposed TO going TO the In,
Urinary, delaying that necessity as
long as possible. They feel that after
having struggled with adversely, and
fallen by the wnyside only by rca,
son OF physical inability to endure, but
stlll retaining strength of mind, they
have more to hope for from their
fellow men than being permitted TO
end their days In the Intrmary, 1t is

Much depends, and has depended,
upon the efficiency of the system Of
Akrons Poor Department. The sys-
TEN has been given n hard test dur
ing the winter which will soon have
passed, but it has withstood 1t well,
very little, if any, suffering having
been experienced by families for want
of necessary supplies. Uncle Joe Ken
dali, Poor Director, has never turned
o deaf ear TO a worthy supplicant, by
reason of his good Judgment and long
experience, the system has been con,
Quoted with economy, yet reaching far
In its provision of aid and cXccllcncy

Joe to n Democrat reporter once, that
there are poor people in this city who
would actually starye rather than ask
for aid" Where people alr so sensl-
tive as this, a basket of provisions Is
slipped to them in such manner that
they do not know from whence it
comes. Frequently eases are reported
where people are needing help, but
when investigated their pride causes
them to refuse any assistance. 1t
would be interesting to know how
many sensitive and noble souls who
have simply been unfortunate in life
are today with saddened hearts won
derIng il the cup of their sorrow is
to be filed to oyerlowing by their be-
ing compelled to ask aid from the
Poor Department, Yet Uncle Joe says
there is quite number Of just such
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1901-03-16

A number of people depend on the
Department for medicine and medical
treatment only. For these and all
others needing medicine, supply Is
usually kept on hand. In most cases
the medicines called for are for chronic
ills, so a druggist Is scarcely ever
needed to prepare the medicines. As
sistant Poor Director Mandcrbacb can
prepare quininc capsules quite as good
as n druggist, ana the list of cough
medicines In stock Is large. Some of
the patients, however, are chronic
complalners as well as the victims of
chronic diseases. The slightest ache
or pain will bring them as fast ms
they can travel to the office of the
Department to he examined by the
physician, and they will not be put
off with any trinng diagnosis. For
instance the nan afflicted with n
slight cold will agree to nothing else,
but that he has an aggravatlng and
dccp-sct attack of the grip.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1901-03-16

During the summer, the poor people
naturally get along much better than
in the winter. but they are inclined to
overlook the necessity for. laying by
store for the winter. They seem to
think Solomon was in "A joking mood
when he wrote-"Go to the ant. thou
sluggard, consider her ways and be
wise Both the Poor Department and
Union Charity Association are en-.
deaNorlng TO overcome this dilatoriness
on the part of habitual dependents,
and will try to induce industry and
economy during next summer.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1901-03-16

OF course all the people who de-
pend upon the Department for aid are
not examples Of moral purity, but bar
ring few exceptions, they are honest
and respectable. The exceptions are
usually those who cndcayor to mis-
represent their physical condition to
escape the necessity of work. As n
rule, they do not succeed in doing
this, for the Department physician
makes examinations and reports on
whether they are able TO work or not
If they have been found shamming,
their reputation is considered bad and
little Is the aid they get People who
are able to work, and in circumstances
permitting them to do so receive very
little, if any, aid.
Akron daily Democrat. [volume] (Akron, Ohio) 1892-1902, 1901-03-16

There is doubtless not city in this
country where the poor are better
cared for than they arc in Akron.
Not only are worthy dependents upon
charity supplied the necessaries of life,
but frequently rays of sunshine have
been forced through tho clouds of
poverty and lives made brighter and
homes more CHEEKY.
Akron people are considerate and
sympathetic. While they know there
Is truth in the old maxim-"It's no
disgrace to he poor, but mighty incon-
venient," they also know that there
is no comfort implied in 1t, and they
do their best to lessen the inconven-
fence, and in doing so display no in
clinaton to deny to their less foltu-
nate brothers and sisters even share
OF the pleasures of life. Akron peo,
pie have shown by their works
OF charity that they do not
consider their obligations ended, when
they have merely supplied sufficient
food, clothing and fuel to keep life
In the body. Their hearts and purses
have always been open to those who
by physical inability have been forced
to depend upon others for mepns to
continue life

Another feature of the Associa tons
work is the providing of good litera,
ture TO poor families. This gives them
pleasant and useful diversion, filling
the mind with knowledge and advanc-
ing thought in the right direction.

Lately Dr. II. A. Montenyahl, ply
siclan for the Department, has oh
served the necessity for better nurs,
ing of city patients, and he has sug,
Gcstcd that arrangements be made
with the City Hospital, whereby,
nurses can be procured to help take
care of patients whose condition may
become dangerous enough to require
special aud constant nursing. Were
such IA plan to he developed to sue.
ccssful climax, II Is figured that the
hospital would be enabled to employ
moro nurses, and the city be justified
by reason of better results to pay the
hospital regular prices for professional
nursing. Poor Director Kendall con.
templates bringing the matter before
