II is said that Miss Helen
Gould annually disburses nearly
million dollars in charity, and
while she does not found libraries
or present medals 20 heroes she
does a great deal more good than
philanthropists OF the Carnegie
brand. By the way, Miss Helen
could do a charitable act Tor her
brother George which would send
her name sounding down the ages
in this section. She could bui,d
a depot for his railroad in Butler
and the people here would ever
after hold her in grateful remem.
