Wheel Chairs
This society is in great need OF wheel
chairs TO carry on its work. Calls are
constantly coming to us from the ply
sicians for chairs to help make COM
Portable patients that can not afford to
buy them. 1t is very sad to have to
tell the doctor that we ara unable to
help him because all the chairs we
have are in use. All the cases the doc
tors report to us are worthy ones. and
1t makes us feel very badly not to be
able to help them and to help them
promptly. I do hope someone who
reads this appeal will know OF some
way TO increase our number of wheel
chairs. If there is any way you can
help us get in touch with US and help
us in this way.
Pass II On
Pass It On" This is our motto. We
can only pass on what is given TO us
to pass on. What have you laying
away that could be put into other
hands and be made useful 20 them
We are constantly passing all manner
J Of things. We always find a place that
fits everything that We have, so nc
matter what you have stored away
with no further use for. give Il TO us
and let us see IL we cannot make some
heart happy by Passing Il on" TO them
while It is still in condition TO use.

little fellow in the sanatorium. Won't

Every little helps in an urgent case
like this.
