natey and impartialy irrespective Of faor or color
We desire also to commend the few C9"ted men o TINS city
who have aided in this good work by contributing money I'll
is reflection class however, that we have not gwen
this worthy cause IN proportion 10 Inc gooo we nave received
from if II is Il we'll known fact that people of our group draw
heavily Humane Society and none of them are ever turn
ed away Far more hcm in proportions than any other class
o ouh and for ts reason along with Others the CoIocd
people of Tulsa should be liberal contributors to the Tulsa
County Humane Society There are number OF men and
women among who able give denominations Of three
figures hurt themselves but doubt a of these
contributed anything to help allay e Suffering of human
y in this community. Probably il because they avc not
thought of their less fortunate ncghbors, maybe they nave
been approached and solicited These ar" poor excuses
