HUBER REVIEWS ACTIVITY OF ASSOCIATED CHARITY
Preparatory to combining the work of the Associated Charities with the new Central Charity bureau the report of the organization's work for the year ending June 2, 1914, has been prepared and submitted by the Rev. Conrad Huber, president The Rev. Mr. Huber outlines the work that has been done and makes the recommendation that it would be wIbo for the city to provide employment for the unemployed on rock plies, in laundries or otherwise. The report follows: "The significant feature of the past year's work was the continuance of hard times, brought about largely by the lack of employment by those' depending upon each day's labor for support. "While the number of different cases dealt with was in excess of any other year and the intensity of need was even greater than before, yet many families showed independence of spirit by not asking assistance unless absolutely necessary. "The average citizen feels that need should be promptly relieved that this is the whole of the matter but in reality it is helping people to help themselves. "And here we make a plea for em ployment for the unemployed a certainty of work for this people to depend upon from time to time. Recommends Employment. "Because of lack of employment, more people had to be helped during the month of May than have ever been helped in the same month by the association since its organization. If the city spent part of the money equipping a stone pile, wood yard or laundry, where employment could be secured at all seasons of the year, it would be infinitely better than giving material aid and pauperizing the recipient. "It is not kindness to give to persons who will not work, rather furnish employment and then refuse help unless they help themselves. The records of the association show the names of persons that have been helped to the third generation. That is not as it should be and until a different course Is pursued in dealing with our unfortunate element, we may expect this same condition to continue. "It may help the public to understand what our work Is by specifying some of the cases that have received attention during the past year. "One-hundred and eighteen families including 524 persons have been given aid some a number of times. One family the husband with cancer and the wife stricken with paralysis. "Another the husband with consumption six in this family and the wife the principal bread winner. "Another family of five, all sick at the same time with typhoid fever. Care for Children. "Several children were cared for at the Home for Friendless Women, to give their mother an opportunity to go out to work. Homes were found for a number of children needing homes and several were taken to White's Institute by the city missionary. "Several girls were taken off the streets and cared for until suitable homes could be found for them. "Our efficient city missionary is faithful in her work twelve months of the year as those she helps will attest. "In response to circular letters sent out by our finance committee, $1770.40 was received and $1188.06 from the charity concert, making a total of receipts for the year $2958.46. Our disbursements were $2505.63, leaving a balance in the treasury of $452.83. "In the brief statement given above, it is impossible for the public to realize the amount of anxiety and
labor involved but when we bear in mind that 118 different families, including 524 people bad been helped, you can see what that means. Asks for Help. "We plead for your interest and help in the future. "We conclude this report by giving the sources from which the help to carry on this work came from church aid societies, Sunday and day schools, union fraternities, flood relief committee, charity concert, municipal Christmas tree, car of coal from coal dealers and personal contributions and a large quantity of bread from the Adams Express company. We desire at this time to thank all who have assisted us in our work by their contributions. "We are also grateful for the assistance rendered by the press."

HUNDLEY LAMENTS PASSIIIGJF STRAW Numbered Days of Faithful Summer That Move Local Poet.
Writing from the standpoint of the straw hat L. A. Handley, superintendent of mails at the post office, has explained the feelings of that strictly summer article when the cool September breezes send the owner, running for a new fall felt hat. The result follows: I have stood the burning sunshine of the summer's dreadful heat, I have turned from brilliant white to dingy brown. Thru my sides have blown the breezes that have cooled your heated brow But I've reached the place where now you turn me down. I was bright and new and cleanly when you plucked me from the shelf, And I've been a faithful servant every day. But when cool September breezes greet your rising every morn, I am treated with contempt and thrown away. All the favors I have shown you are forgotten in a day. And my battered, wrinkled visage makes you sore, When the crispy Autumn breezes seem to spell "September Morn," Then you turn and lightly kick me from the door.
