SPECIAL NOTICE.
Dear Children:
Last week Aunt Dorothy told you to send
your local funds and Porto Rico funds to
Mr. Weller. After having a careful talk
about this with Mr.. Weller and others, 1t
was decided to have the circles take care OF
their own funds, as usual, and give them
out on call only, as usual.
When you have enough money gathered
together for the Porto Rico school fund to
make Ii worth while, say one or two dollars,
send a money order 10 Samuel McCune
Lindsay, United States commissioner or
education, San Juan, Porto Rico. Send
letter with your money and say it is sent by
your circle telling him which circle, or by
a member or a friend, who may not be a
member, giving your name and address,
whichever it may be. If any of your adult
friends care to help US help the school chill
dren in Porto Rico 100000 of them. ask
them TO send checks to the National Met
ropolitan Bank of Washington. D. c., made
payable to Mr.. Lindsay. and in this way
they, too, can add to our fund If they will.
Names only of contributors will be pub
licly announced The amounts given will be
known only to Mr.. Lindsay, Aunt Dorothy,
the bank and the contributors themselves.
Next week we shall hope to receive from
YOU a long list Of names of friends who
arc interested in this work and who will
promise to help us. Yours sincerely,
AUNT DOROTHY.
