SOME P 18TH, STORIES

The monthly report of David A.
Glascoff, humane officer and general
secretary of the United Charities, has
been prepared for the month of May.
1t is interesting to note the work
which Mr.. GLASGOW has been doing for
the two associations, and his report
.Igives evidence of the need of the so
cieties and the good that is being
done here by them.
His report follows:
/ Naturally with the approach of
warm weather there is. diminution
lin the numbers OF dependents asking.
material aid. This is In part due to
the fact that many Of them possess
small plats of ground where they raise
little garden truck and also to the
fact tina. there is more city work.
This cessation does not mean that the
work is at a standstill but rather that
there is a chance for change. A
chance to do more preventive and
constructive work. We are now turn
ing our attention to these phases and
to Keokuk.
During the month of May there
were thirty families brought to our
attention from the following sources:
Private and individuals, twenty; ap-
placants in their own behalf, ten; Y.
w. G. A., two, and city and county
officers. two. This group Of distress
ed humanity represented forty-nine
individuals over fourteen years of
age and twenty-three under that age.
Socially they were divided as follows:
Twelve married couples, four widow
ers, three widows, two divorced or
separated couples. four single men
residents. two single men transient,
and three single women.
Give Substantial Aid.
Through the hearty cooperation Of
lour friends we have been able to do
as indicated by the following: Twen-
ty-seven meals we're served to two
old women and sleeping accommoda-
lions were furnished for eight nights.
Groceries we're provided twenty-six
times, work once, rent paid once,
furniture moved once, transportation
secured twice, thirteen were helped
to get along without public assistance
and five others were referred to 9TH
er organizations or officers. Our at
tention was directed to suffering an
finals in five instances and in four it
lay within our power 20 correct con-
ditions, while in the fifth there was
no need of interference as there was
mo cruelty.
In order to do this work, ninety
four visits were made and the tele-
phone used one hundred twenty-nine
times. Four associations, societies. or
institutions, the county and several in
dividuals united in the giving Of mon
ley or its equivalent in material aid,
thus making possible the work &C
complished.
