Help the Needy Of Our City.
To the People of Staunton:

To the People of Staunton:
A word on behalf of the Board OF
Managers of the Associated Charltles
il all that need be said, | am sure, TO
remind you that all the distress that
comes with the rigors of winter TO the
unemployed, the improvident ana the
unfortunate in our community is now
upon them.
That suffering and want exist IN our
midst is sufficiently obvious to the
managers and district visitors, who are
at work on this business, and are Will
ing to devote to it all the time and at
tention necessary, but few indivld-
uals can accomplish but little, especial :
ly before the details of management
are reduced to system, and more gen
eral and more generous support is call
ed for.
We have heretofore called on all cltl-
zens desiring to help us to enter their
names ms members of the Society with
Mr.. II. l.. Lang, the treasurer, SUB
scribing and if convenient paying such
amount-notsless than fifty cents an
nually-as they will. With the many
other pressing demands of the season.
but few have responded.
With number of applications from
really needy families and individuals
and with many instances known OF
very worthy people requiring assist
ance and unwilling to ask it, WE
WANT MONEY and we do not mind
being sturdy beggars Other things
are wanted, too, such as cast of cloth
ing, warm Undertaking especially,
and wraps, fuel and food. The needs
are urgent and the distribution OF relief
should be immediate.
! The society is not merely clearing
house for the charitable organizations
of the city, but aims to do good deal
independently, and to do it intelligent
ly and systematically.
1t calls now for information to be
given to the chairman of the distrlbu-
ton committee, Mr.. w. d. Hoge, at
the Y. M. C. A., until otherwise arrang-
ed, of all persons who are willing &c
work upon such occasional jobs as put
ting away wood and coal, cleaning OF
pavements and the like, and of persons
needing such help.
1t aims to break up street and Office
and house to house begging by having
all such applications brought at one
to the attention of the distribution
committee and investigated and report
ed upon by the visitors OF the prope
district.
But we hope mono will reject appll
cations for charity at such time
without promptly communicative
with us, nor without doing some par
, in providing means of assistance, wheT
assistance should be given.
