As during the previous year, Jhe
contributions for local charity were
solicited by the Chamber of Com-
merce for the Benevolent Society. .
and the work of the society has been
conducted by Mrs. O. H. Fisher. The
vglue of this good lady’s service* can-
not be over estimated. Her quarterly
reports to the Chamber of Commerce
are a (natter of record which reflect
the utmost thrift in administering un-
told help to the needy of our com-
munity. During tjie past year ‘here
has been more distress, poverty, and
sickness due to unemployment, and
due So depressed conditions her
working funds have been less, but'
she has managed to keep up the nec-
essary wq[k, and no deserving case
ha.* been neglected. For this splendfcl
work we wish to express our thanks
and appreciation to Mrs. Fisher.
