CHARITY WEEK OCT 7 TO 13

ALL SHOULD HEED CALL OF LOCAL CHARITY BOARD FOR HELP. It is the desire of the Charity Board that Oct. 7-13 be known as Charity Week in Rensselaer. That ministers preach along that line on Oct. 7th and take a collection for that purpose. That different organizations plan to do their “bit’* in some special way, market, tag day, entertainment, card party, etc., suggested. Fall in line and make it possible for this organization to make our people comfortable. Quoting from a late popular magazine: “When you are giving millions To Belgium, Pole and Serb, Remember my pitiful lady— Madonna of the curb.” “This ought ye have done and not left the other undone.”
