GRANTWOOD NOTES
UNITED cLIFFsIDE CHARITIES.

AS a number of individuals and or
CARNATIONS in Cliffside Park and
vicinity are interested in the poor
family of that borough for which an
appeal was recently made by the
United Charities, this organization
feels that report at this time would
be of interest to a large number. The
husband, who was sent by the associa-
ton to tuberculosis hospital at
White Haven, is improving a good
deal and has gained eight pounds in
two months. He in an Industrious,
hard working man and it is hoped that
he will be able to return to his family
at no distant future.
The family, Consisting of IA mother
and five young children) has been
recently aided in self support, through
the efforts of the United Charities,
and the boy of fourteen years of age
has a job as errand boy in the Glucose
Works at forty-five dollars month.
The mother is receiving twenty dollars
a month from the st. Joseph's Society
of Shady Side, and she has asked
that she be allowed to try to live on
this combined sum of siXty-tive dol
lars month, without aid from the
United Charities, for the next month.
United Charities Report.
The WOman's League of the Pail
SADIE Union Church is another organi-
cation which has aided with contribu-
tons.
AS the plan of trying to support this
family on siXty-five dollars a month,
while demonstrating the excellent and
independent spirit of the family, is
only an experiment and scarcely likely
to be successful one, the United
Charities asks that the public still
continue it's interest in this deserv-
ing family, and reports will be given
from time to time.
