WITHDRAW
PR0V|DENT SAVINGS
Fund of Associated Charities
Comes in Handy for
Winter Needs.

Scores of children who have been de-
positors in the Provident Savings Fund
of the Associated Charities during the
last year have kept the officials Of that
institution busy since the holidays be-
gan by withdrawn their money.
According to one Of the directors of
the Associated Charities. this money
probably will go for necessities rather
than for the purchase Of Christmas
toys and presents. Many youngsters.
encouraged by. their parents. have
saved their earnings to buy clothing
and shoes.
One colored boy withdrew $40 a few
days ago which he had saved from his
small salary. 1t is expected the de-
posits Of small sums will again begin
Immediately after New Year day.
Discussing this phase of charity
work last night, one Of the directors Of
the institution said:
There is no telling how much these
small savings have contributed to
keeping families just above the relief
line and from asking for assistance
when winter came on. Certainly the
satisfaction and independence apparent
as the depositOrs come forward asking
for their own money instead of an
other persons help show the practical
value of the system"
