Sick Benefit Club Assisted.

For some years the shopmen
have maintained a sick benefit
club, each member paving in a
Stipulated sum each week, then
when sickness compelled them to
lay off from their work they were
paid a certain sum from the club
treasury. This has been self
sustaining until the past few
years, when sickness became
more prevalent and the drain on
the treasury was more than it
could stand. For some time it
was seen by those in charge, that
something must be done or the
Organization would have to dis
band; A number of different
ideas were brought out, but fin
ALLY the officers decided to appeal
to the members ofthe Commercial
club for assistance. At the last
meeting Mr.. Miller and Mr. Hyde
of the association appeared be-
fore the meeting and explained
their difficulties. A committee
was appointed by the club to So
ticit funds and this committee is
now ready to turn over $3.50 to
the association. Not all the men
up town We're solicited or the fund
would have been much larger, as
