sett street Office hours from 8 a. IN. to
IL. The work is moving along nicely. The
ladies' OF the General Committee have been
great help to the superintendent, espe-
cially in investigating cases who apply for
help. 1t is our plan never to help any one
unless we first investigate and find out
their real need We have had to turn
down great many III the last month, for
there are so many who have got in the
habit of begging and they are not really
needy, and a great many of our citizens
babe been imposed upon in this way.
ALLOW me tc suggest to our giving peo-
pie OF this city, when any one approaches
you for help. kindly send them to the Of
fee of the Associated Charities, and we
will take pleasure in investigating their
case, and reporting same to you II You
desire, and then you will know that your
money has gone in the proper channel.
The association has committee of ladies'
in each district ef the city and the super
ntendent confe4 with the ladies in the
different distrj Is when any from their
district apply help. So you see we are
working on a Business plan and not max
ing beggars, but trying to help the worthy
and get work for those that want work.
I'VE have had some very pitable cases
to come before us this month, but the
kind ladies have assisted the superintend-
ent and they have been cared for out of
the fund given by the people who have
made pledges for this work. The superin-
tendent invites any who desire to do SO
to visit the ofAce during office hours and
he will be glad to show the books of the
association to any who are contributors
to the work as record is kept of all cases
helped and all money paid out. and all
pledge cards are recorded.
IF you have not made pledge to this
work, the superintendent, Rev. r. S Step
henson. will be glad at any time to fur
nish you with a pledge card and a pack
