TO self dependence they need some
furniture with which to set up home

Two beds. two mattresses, bedding,
and pillows or cushions that would do
for pillows.
A cook stove
Four chairs and high chair for the
baby.
At least one table.
An old rug or carpet for the floor.
Some dishes.
these the family can strike out for it
self You probably have slowed away

! Bohen. Tell him what you will send
| You are asked to do this SO that there
will not be a great duplicity OF articles
sent that are not needed.
