Report of Secretary.
The Secretary's report showed that dur
ing the past year LISP families had been
given relief through the Citizens Relief
Association, and that 46 persons suffer-
ing from tuberculosis had received spe-
cial diet of milk and eggs. The report
showed that there was an increasing
tendency to use the funds of the Citi-
zens' Relief Association solely for emer-
gency purposes, relying upon the organ
iZed special relief funds of the Asso-
ciated Charities in cases where contin-
uous relief in the forms of widows or
mothers pensions is needed. In proof OF
this it was brought out that last year
the emergency relief expenditures of the
Citizens Relief Association amounted to
Sc, 752, while the organized relief dis
bursements of its colleague. the Asso-
ciated Charities, totaled $1O,571
The managers approved estimates for
emergency relief for the coming year
amounting to $500

of telling her of conditions that she
can not change and the knowledge
of which can only bring her mis-

Suppose she believes him when he
tells her that the reason he didn't
get home until o'clock in the

a customer from Oshkosh, or there
was some special work at the office
that had to be done that very night.
Suppose the wife is happy and
