A Worthy Project Launched When the executive board of the Central Bureau of Charities and Social Service employed John Melpolder as its managing secretary, they secured a man whom they are confident will suc
cessfully carry out the third and the most scientific charity project in the United States, unique for it being undertaken in a city of Richmond's size. Today Mr. Melpolder will launch this project formally. The first principle of charity relief is funds. To the general public, this is the only principle. In the past financing charity has harrassed our business men, who have been solicited by a half dozen charity agencies, either personally or by general appeal, a number of times each year. Heretofore the man who has been sustaining charity by his donations, has never known where the money went to that he has charged on his expense account under the head "Charity." He might have doubted whether his money was wisely spent, but his doubts were always extinguished by his conscience. However, Mr. Melpolder is brought to Richmond to carry out the workings of a perfect checking system. Funds will now be solicited for only one charitable organization, the central bureau. The money will be placed in a bank, subject to the administration of certain persons. These men will merely pay the bills which are contracted and approved by the societies which constitute the central bureau. Every cent which

is spent must be with the approval of the managing secretary. It is in the detection of unworthy cases and the scientific treatment of any cases the bureau has, that Mr. Melpolder's talent and previous knowledge will be directed. Personally he will handle no funds. He will act as director of charity. Mr. Melpolder is a man adequately fitted to do this work. He will concern himself chiefly with probing into the causes for charity relief and will then apply a remedy for such cases worthy of public aid. As his work progresses, Mr. Melpolder will gradually extend its scope. He will add a free employment bureau, which will furnish employment for men and women worthy of such assistance. He will not begin this work now as he will first secure the co-operation of manufacturers,
merchants and other business men as a necessary adjunct to the success of the employment bureau. This is one of the more comprehensive plans which Mr. Melpolder will work out. He has numbers of others for relieving more aggravated cases. The fiscal board which will have control of the finances of charity in Richmond, and Mr. Melpolder will work out.

accomplished real work in going over and sorting out the real material for a financial campaign. To show that the position of managing secretary of charities will be no sinecure, Mr. Melpolder has for one of the mottos of his office : "Two brothers once lived down this way, And one was "Do" and one was "Say." If streets were dirty taxes high, Or schools too crowded, Say would cry, "Lord, what a town." But brother Do Would set to work to make things new. "And while Do worked, Say still would cry, "He does it wrong; I know that I Could do it right." So all the day Was heard the clack of brother Say. But this one fact from none was hid, Say always talked. Do always did."

The deeds of Doan's Kidney Pills, For Richmond kidney sufferers, Have made their local reputation. Proof lies in the testimony of Richmond people. R. C. Lankert, retired farmer, 221 N. Fifth St., Richmond, says: "I had rheumatic pains in my back and limbs and the action of my kidneys was irregular and painful. When I saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised, I used them and they soon gave me relief." Mr. Lankert is only one of many Richmond people who have gratefully endorsed Doan's Kidney Pills. If your back aches if your kidneys bother you, don't simply ask for a kidney remedy ask distinctly for Doan's Kidney Pills, the same that Mr. Lanke) had the remedy backed by home testimony. 50c all stores.

"Potash and Perlmutter." When A. H. Woods first announced that he was to produce a dramatization of Montague Glass' famous stories in the Saturday Evening Post some fear was expressed by those who had so conscientiously waged war against the caricature of the Jew on .the stage that "Potash and Perlmutter" would be objectionable to them and their sympathizers. Many inquiries were directed to Mr. Woods in advance of the production as to its exact attitude toward the Jewish people. To all of these Mr. Woods asked that the anxlouB ones possess themselves in nnMpnrn and withhold judgment until Ah Pntash and Morris Perlmutter in the flesh and blood. The result was exactly as Mr. Woods and those who had read the play and seen It in rehearsal anticipated. No Dlav nroduced in many years was hail ed with more sheer joy than "Potash and Perlmutter" and now, after "Pat ash and Perlmutter" has passed its Xnd season at the George M. theatre it is safe to say that every Jewish and Gentile theatre-goer in New York has seen and enjoyed this cleanest, brightest and most human of comedies. The critic of the New York World was first to point out in his review that "In no sense can it be regarded as offensive to the Jewish race." The New York Herald remarked in an editorial on "The Offensive Drama": "Ours is essentially a clean public. We delight in the wholesome fun of "Potash and Perlmutter" just as the generation before us revelled in the splendid humor of Harrigan and Hart plays of David Warfleld and Maude Adams, the "Rip Van Winkle" of Joseph Jefferson and the Biblical drama of "Ben Hur" may be said to represent American Theatrical taste and there is not an unclean note in any of them." During its long run in New - York City "Potash and Perlmutter" was visited by countless societies, both Jewish and Gentiles, and representing every section of the United States. Its appeal is universal and in sending it to the Gennett theatre on Monday night Manager Woods believes that he is offering one of the highest, cleanest entertainments ever given on the American stage.
