Work Three Fold.

VOV&i y BUVS OI0e
The work Of the United Charities
of Keokuk is three-fold; alternative,
constructive and preventive. In the
first named feature there is no blood
red tape or rules unless 1t be- the
| rule of Immediate help suited to the
pressing demands of the family. Nat
urally following this is the construc-
tive work where definite plans ara
made and carried out for the restora-
ton of the family or individual to a
position 1t can provide by honest
labor the necessities of life for those
dependent on It, The third field OF
our endeevor Is that of preventive
philanthropy. To prevent dependency
is a far greater work than to allow
the family to become down and out
and they try and make their lot easier
by supplying some OF their daily wants
and so help them from one days suf-
fering into the next.
Endorsement Given.
During the three months that the
United Charities has been In active
life 1t has endeavored to apply to
each individual family coming under
its care those principles OF life which
have made for good wholesome citi-
zenship and has endeavored to aid in
the lettering Of some of the neighbor
hood conditions which might cause
sickness and thus poverty. That our
efforts have met with approval is in

STANLEY w. FINCH URGES

Care for Delinquents.

Stanley W. Finch, representing the Ma
tional Social Welfare League yesterday
appeared before the ways and means and
finance committees of the Maryland Iegis-
lature at Annapolis and discussed the
Kenyon bill. which wiped out the red
light district of this CITY,
The two committees OF the legislature
met to discuss questions relating to an
appropriation for the maintenance of
the Maryland Industrial School for Girls.
lt was stated that the board of managers
Of the institution and the board of state
aid and charities had been unable to
reach an agreement in the matter OF turn
ing the institution over to the state.
1t was stated that the charter of the
institution calls for the adnlittance of
both depen1en; and delinquent girls Mr..
finch contended that one immoral girl
can Go q world OF harm to many good
girls
''Maryland~ stated Mr. Finch should
have a school for falie,. girls.
Mr.. Finch suggested that anything the
legislature might contemplate doing TO
care for fallen girls should not be done
hastily. In this city, he stated. the move
came rather sudden. but President Will
son did all lie could by delaying his ap-
prevail of the bill, thereby giving some
handling the women In the segregated
district.
Members of the legislative committees
were told by Mr.. Finch that the Kenyon
law is sure TO do much good. He praised
the law, and said the people will some
day realize the great amount of good 1t
has done.
Mr. Finch told of the manner in which
the Bedford School Of Girls, at Bedford,
y. y. is conducted, and advised the lesis-
iators to provide similar institution for
Maryland. At that institution he eN-
plained, the cottage system is III use,
inmates of the institution progressing
from one cottage to another as their con-
duct may justify.
