MOST GENEROUS is eEaf,
-1I- RESPONSE TO APPEAL
(From Thursdays Daily.)


Generous Prescott evidently goes
on the theory that it is more bless
ed to give than receive" There is
no other reasonable way to account
for its response to the appeal made
in the JournaLMiner yesterday in
behalf of the stricken Blanton fam
lily and the personal solicitation OF
two good. charitable women-Mrs.
Sidney Birch and Mrs. DR.. McNally
yesterday afternoon.
| As a result OF their commend
able efforts and the liberality OF
the good people of this city the
sum of S21325 in cash was raised
an automobile load of clothing was
left at the Journal Miner and every
delivery wagon of every grocery
house made a trip or more during
the day to the stricken home, leav-
ing provisions given by these bust
ness institutions and donors.
Hardly had the ink become dry
on the Journal Miner edition in
the early hours of yesterday morn
ing when the Bartenders' Union by
its secretary came in with dona-
ton of S., thus answering the ques-
ton asked Il the article: who will
be the next?" Accompanying the
check was the statement: Call on
us if you find you need more"
When the business Office of this
paper opened a stream of good
humanitarians commenced to ebb
and flow through the doors leav-
ind evidence of their big heartedness
in the form of money and clothes.
During the day the employees of
the B. B. Company raised a sub
scription of SIS among themselves
and also sent SIS worth of groceries
to the family. Others interested
themselves in the good work and
left the money they collected with
this office to be turned over to the
committee. But ;he real labor was
performed by Mrs. Birch and Mrs.
McNally. for to them fell the self
delegated task of going out in the
streets and business houses and
asking aims for this worthy cause.
The Blanton home, although be-
reft of a husband and father, is
no longer destitute and there are
no hungry children crying for
bread. The uncertainty of where
the next meal is coming from, no
longer Expresses the widow and
mother, and the body of the man
who made valiant struggle against
odds is, on its way
home for burial. Verify it is more
blessed to give than receive.
