Rockefeller May Give H lp

Dear Aunt Laurie:
/ am going to put myself in Mr.. john
ID. Rockefeller's place and make some
resolutions and keep them.
First, l would open my heart and
send blessings in the shape and form
of food ana clothing. l would change
my name to one of blessing instead
of scorn.
When I say that, Aunt Laurie.
mean l would do many kind things and
make myself loved instead of hated.
My second resolution would be not
to give churches money and then get
it all back again by raising the price
of oil. Instead of building mansions
/ would take the money and alleviate
the suffering of the poor people.
To send showers of hams and blan-
kets, and all essential things, would be
great pleasure to me- | don't think
it was very long ago that l read in the
paper that John d. Rockefeller built
beautiful mansion with great high
walls around il, so the people could not
even look i'm at the beautiful splendor
Of lawns and shrubbny and flowers
within.
Mr. Rockefeller could SO easily en-
shrine himself in the hearts of the
American people, as he is man OF
phenomenal money-getting qualities.
Justice must be done 10 as great an
extent as possible. though In a re-
cent interview with Mrs. Beirer. in her
ninety-third year. the last girlhood
friend Of Mrs. Eliza Dawson Rookie
Teller, mother of the oil king. says:
1T was John d. Rockefeller's mother
whose soul is ncrving his hand today
to write checks for millions i'm the
cause of philanthropy and religion
Mr.. Rockefeller's mother was a great
and noble woman. and all that is noble
in his nature is due to his mother.
