Last spring the or ranization which makes collections for the various institutions planned to give aid to the sick. exercise to those who need it, and solace to the poor started out to raise the sum of ap- proximately $40.0O0, less than one dollar for everyone in the city. There was far from q generous response. About one-half the needed sum has been collected. and the campaign has dragged along for months.
 Tn tho Spring a largo number of circular letters were sent out detail ing the charities which needed sup port and where a percentage of each dollar would go. Since the latter part of August. the Chamber of Commerce has had three extra phone operators at work and they have made about a.400 calls in one and a half weeks. asking that people would give. There were 1890 answers to the effect that those called up would he glad to give something for New Britain charities. X second circular letter was sent about explaining what was to be done with the money-and to date but about $500 has been added to the total. There is now S24.5oO in the fund, $16,OOO short of the need.

The Boys Club and the Hoy Scouts offer source of healthy instructive recreation to the boys. Is it worth while to see the institutions maintained? You have the answer. Is it well to become part of a group of men which allows it's consumptives to rot on their beds with no assistance from a nurse or no inspection from a doctor? The Visit ing Nurses help many a needy ill one and aid others in recovering. Shall we keep them? You have the answer. What use is 1t to go into further de- tails. there are people that you can aid on every hand. You see them and know their troubles. If you act as a Good Samaritan in individual cases.

 Considering these facts. and others. it Is believed that now woman is being given her chance to he independent in many ways. women will cherish that chance and make the most of it.
 The more women enter the busi- ness and working field. the fewer strikes there will be-and the less will he the suffering and inconveni- ence of the world.
