THE FEDERATED
CHRISTIAN cHARITlEE

Through the kindness OF The Eagle
the public Of Bryan have seen two
results OF the work Of the Federated
Christian Charities. They have sys-
tematically worked to relieve many
and they have exposed some few
chronic beggars and professional
hangers on" In this policy they
need our support. People who do not
work under the plea that the public
will support them need TO be led to
a different view. We have cases here
where we are getting that result.
We need to render effective our
work by more generous support OF
the committee. Two cases OF diph-
iberia II helped by this committee.
would take nearly half of what this
committee will have per month.
Cases Of emergency sickness call for
outlay that should be met promptly.
Many cases OF unemployed can be
helped. But the committee finds that
cases must sometimes be carried over
or only partially relieved because OF
lack Of funds. No one in Bryan should
fail to respond to the work OF this
committee.
We will try to show the citizens
duty to cooperate with the committee
in this systematic way.
