of need. Along with the garments
and supplies given out has gone
loving understanding and friendly
interest that has frightened the
darkest hours in many a life.
During this long period OF world
adjustment it has become increas-
ingly clear that every community
must more and more look after IT'S
own needy: this is as it should be,
for unless We realize the 4acK
and suffering in our midst, we
cannot intelligently work toward
those changes in our system that
will prevent these in the future.
It has been a service that has
blessed both the giYer and the re-

points, she receives letter; this is
the goal won by most. For 1900
points, she is given the pin. This
