WARNING AGAINST WORK

Tender-hearted housewives Of the
city are warned by the Associated
Charities to harder their hearts against
beEgars who come to their doors seek
ing material assistance. No really
worthy person is going from door to
door begging. Such will seek aid
through authorized channels; yet every
year hundreds are duped by these
clever. professional beggars because
they allow sentiment to blind their bet
ter Judgment.
a case OF long standing is reported
rs that of n girl who for three years
has been selling ferns which she digs
in the woods and sells for 10 cents
each. She is one Of n clever band Of
beggars who have worked" various
sections Of the city at various times.
Naturally, few care for the ferns, but
they give her the dime or quarter Just
the same, so the same wiltcd speci-
mems of ferns do ycoman's service In

There Is also the woman with the
basket who is making mich Roadway
n collecting clothes for an infant. There
Is aloo the little h%unchback woman,
sometimes accompanied by n
of perhaps two years, who begs ut
the Tenth Street gate to Capitol Square
and consistently refuses to listen to
any suggestions that she seek aid OF
the Associated Charities. Possibly she

MANY USELESS APPEALS

Many vain efforts are being made by
Nirginians to have President Wilson

these cases were argued before local
boards where men sought to avoid mill
larry service on the ground of depend

appealed to thei. President. The orr,
cases which may. be carried to the
Chief Executive Of the nation are those
where claims for exemption are made
for industrial OF agricultural reasons.

may be appealed TO the White House.
