SOCIAL SERVICE SEEKS TO REMEDY CAUSES OF POVERTY, SOCIAL EVILS, SAYS HISS CLARK

Figures showing the work that is being done by the Social Service bureau in this city, accompanied by steropticon views which illustrated some of the conditions the bureau hopes to remedy, were features of the annual report of the Social Service bureau, given at a meeting of the organization held in the Coliseum, Monday evening. An illustrated lecture by Miss S. Ethel Clark, executive secretary of the organization, election of a board of di

rectors, and directors of affiliated or

ganizations, and a short talk by Amos Butler, of Indianapolis, secretary of the state board of charities, were outstand

ing poinis 01 tne evening program which followed the serving of a ban

quet to approximately BOO persons. "I want to take off my hat to Rich

mona, sam air. uutier. "Tnis is a splendid meeting and I don't believe

they could get one like It in Indianapolis," Mr. Butler said Indianapolis social agencies missed the services of

Miss Clark. . Hope To Remedy Causes.

The lecture given by Miss Clark

aeait cnieriy with the desire of the bureau to remedy the underlying causes

01 poverty and social evils.

"Tangible results can be seen In

the report of a manufacturer or mer

chant," said Miss Clark at the open

ing of her lecture. "But it is hard to

show the work of this bureau In fig

ures. Mere figures will not show the effort put in by the staff, the changes worked in the lives of the people, and

the like. We want you to know what 13 being done by the bureau and for that reason we have made up this

program this evening. Systematic Work

"Many persons think of the Social , Service Bureau in terms of food or

clothing. They forget that this work

must be done , in a systematic and

business-like way."

Almost me same point was men

tioned by Howard Dill, president of

tne bureau when he said:

"Some persons think the Social Ser

vice Bureau Is a cold-hearted, machine

like organization. They think that re

lief should be given to everyone who

comes along.

"It is easy enough to pass out money but it is another thing to put a man

on his feet, and make him economi

caly independent after he is down and

out. Appreciates Help.

I want to thank those who have

helped make the bureau a success in

the past year, the ex-officio members who have done their bit, Superintendent Bate. Judge W. A. Bond, County Auditor Brooks, and Trustee J. O. Edgerton. The future success of the bureau depends on the support given it by the people. This i3 not primary a relief organization. The law permits the trustee to hand out clothing, food and fuel as

the need may arise but it does not allow him to investigate these cases. That is one function of the bureau, to determine when the county and the township Is being imposed upon. Musical Prcrjram. An excellent musical program was given.- The program was opened by a violin and piano duet by Mis3 Bernice Richards and Miss Juliet Nusbaum. Later Mrs. F. W. Krueger sang. She was accompanied by Miss Alice Knollenberg. Community singing led by Ora Stegall was a part of the program. Music was furnished by the T. M. C. A. boys' band during the earlier part of the evening.

Mrs. Harry Lontz and Mrs. Rudolph Leeds had charge of the decorations. Board of Directors. The following board of directors was elected to represent affiliated organizations: The new directors for 1922-23 are as follows: Rotary club Edward H.

OFFICIALS OF STREET

CAR COMPANY MEET COUNCILMEN TONIGHT

Officials of the local city street car company will meet all members of the city council at 7:30 o'clock Tuesday evening in the offices of the board of works for a round table discussion, according to an announcement.

Working under suspension of the rules, the city council Monday night

oassed an ordinance providing that

Dell B. Devis, city civil engineer, be

sent as a delegate to the national con

vention of the American Society for Municipal Improvement to be held at

Cleveland, Ohio, Oct 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The ordinance also provided that $75 be . appropriated for the expenses of the delegate while making the trip. Councilman Walterman suggested that a vacated plot of ground and a closed Btreet near the conjunction of South Seventh and F streets be sold at public auction and this matter was referred to the board of public works. Further time was granted to the special committee on hospital investi

gation, Chairman Ford stating that the committee had been unable to secure a meeting with the hospital

board. The ordinance providing for a fran

chise for the Richmond Motor Transit company was given second reading

and the ordinance providing for the repeal of the daylight saving ordinance was stricken from the files. Effort was made to ascertain the

number of councilmen and city officials who would make the trip to the State Municipal league meeting to be held at South Bend on Oct. 4, 5 and 6, but as many of the councilmen could not definitely state whether or not they would be able to make the trip, no plans were made. It was suggested that a committee be appointed from those that make the trip to South Bend for the purpose of going on to Saginaw, Mich., to investigate the practicability of the motor bus line now in operation In that city and compare conditions there with the local situation. Mayor Hand lay said the suggestion would be acted upon.
