ASSISTANCE
Being Given The Poor By
Charities Association
Much Suffering Reported In
The City AT Present
Adjourned.

The Associated Charities of
Mt. Vernon has been most active
during the past few days in giving re-
lief to the poor of the city. The organ
ization Is a new one, but nevertheless
much good work Is being done. One
of the members of the association
stated to Banner reporter Tuesday
morning that 1t was surprising how
many poor people In Mt. Vernon need
ed assistance at the present time.
Work was scarce last fall and many
men have had no employment so far
this winter.
The association hopes to have a
room established at the Y. M. G. "A.
building In the near future where sup
plies and clothing will be received for
distribution among the poor of the
city.

DELEGATES
Appointed By Mayor PGrrinG
To Municipal Conference;

On Wednesday afternoon Mayo
Perrine announced the names of the
delegates appointed by himself to the
Municipal Association Conference to
be held in Columbus on the oath and
25th of January. The delegates ap-
pointed were as follows: DR.. G. d.
Arndt, Stephen j. Dorgan, Jacob My
ers and Frank Harper.
The number of delegates to the con-
ference from each city is based on
the population, Mt. Vernon being en-
titled to four. The conference is not
an official gathering, its inception be.
ing in Cleveland among come men
who are interested in municipal mat
ters, and whose idea was to hold a
meeting made up of delegates appoint
ed by the mayor in each municipality
to discuss questions pertaining to city
affairs and to make recommendations
to the constitutional convention, now
in session at Columbus, on matters
that would better the condition in the
cities of Ohio.
