Says Miss Franklin:
There are some who look apor a
charity association as one to give out
money. food. clothing and fuel only
as society to aid the family in a
material way. We aim to be more than
a relief society, we plan ID be pow
erful educational force directed against
the evils which produce distress 1t
is not a question OF the amount Of
groceries, the number of pieces Of
clothing or the fuel we give 20 the fam
lily, 1t is the question Of how much
good we do the family. What have we
done to stimulate independence and a
desire TO live better and to stand alone?
True charity is not one which loads a
family down with the necessities Of
life. but one which brings that family
up to independence. Big dividends in
