THE unusually severe weather this
year has caused a drain on our treasury
Of from 20 to so per cent more than
last year" declared Walter Ufford, gen.
eral secretary OF the Associated Charities
yesterday, and the expenditures for this
month probably will exceed the outlay
of March, 1914, by an even larger hgure,
through similar condition.
There is an extremely large number
of superannuated and partially disabled
persons who depend entirely upon house
and yard cleaning for a living. Through
the winter months they, for the most
part, are Of a necessity supported by
charity, but are self-supportIng in sum-
mer.
a late spring merely means that they
remain idle that much longer and our
fuel, food and clothing stock, further
depleted"
