THE COLD WEATHER Draws Pretty Hard on the Treasury -Thirty-Eight Families Helped. The Associated Charities is an organization of the city and for the city. Since the work is supported by the people of our city, it is only right that the people should be informed as to the working's of the association, the good that is being done and the needs. At these monthly meetings we make settlements of our accounts,hear the report of our city missionary, and plan the work for the future. At the meeting yesterday the board allowed bills for shoes, clothing, fuel meat, groceries, etc., to the amount of $103.34. Relief has been given in this city to about thirty-eight families, ef fecting in these families one hundred and eighty-six persons. This is besides the relief given in the way of clothing and shoes at the headquarters. One instance of helping a man will be of interest. The missionary was coming to the office one evening last month, when she saw a man standincr on the opposite side of the street. She expected that he was waiting' for her." She was not disappointed. He came to the office, and stated his case. He had found work in one of the shops of the city, but had no underwear nor clothing fit to go to a boarding house nor to the shop, and, whilst he had a piece of soap in his pocket which would be helpful to remove some of t ho surplus on his body, yet he found that the temperature was rather low to go through the process in the river. The missionary took in the situa tion, made arranaemeuts that he could have a bath, and gave him clothing of what she had on hand and sent him out a new mail, at least on the outside, if not inside. Th old clothing which he had on him were committed to iho flames. Some very sad and pitiable tales come tc the attention of your board. This is your work, dear friends, if you have any share in it, in an' way. Our committee has sent ont G5G appeals to so many individuals. Of this number we have re ceived replies from 1SS, of which m: !:! lfip have contributed $840.02 ir,-lading $100 which were receive: ."; .! two parties. Hence, 101 pe ; have contributed $440.02. V V. pray you to carefully consider these -'inures. We feel sr that this will come to the notice of such which have received our appeal and have not sent in their contribution to this worthy cause. Please do without delay. This is severe weather. It is hard to turn people away, who are in great need of fuel, foo and clothing, and turn a deaf ear to their cry. Send your gifts to Mrs. Mather without delay. We thank the people for the clothing which has been sent. We need more. Look through 3'our ward rob and see what you can spare to help in this respect. I was hungry and ye gave me meat, I was naked and ye clothed me. In the name of the Master. C. Huber, President of the Board. One way Colonist Rates to the iVest and Northwest via The C, C. ; L.
