“16- HOM tional Ass_istance for Care of Incyrables. %o the Editor of The Star: It is now several years since an ap- | peal for the W‘:fi'\h’\"bfl Home for In- curables has been made to the public of Washington. But the board of man- rs dare make this plea, at this time, for it is the public whick has hitherto made possible the continuance of the undertaking which many people have classed as a really great work. As a majority of the board deemed it in- advisable to go into the Community Chest, it has been found necessary at this Thanksgiving season to ask for some outside help. We have every bed full, 108 people, and a waiting list of nearly 50. Those in the home we know are perfectly cared for and as happy as is consistent with their physical condition—at any rate contented and grateful. But the increasing number of applicants for ad- mission are the terrible: strain on the sympathies of the board. Many people in this citv lie alone all day while the wage earner, the husband, wife, daugh- ter, son, leaves them from early in the mnmu;s until late in the afternoon in confined quarters, to eat what has pre- viously been prepared for them, and they are often unable to reach for help. ‘With additional funds the home could assist them. Funds Insufficient. Our endowment fund-—thanks to the generous thought of many people, some of whom, as far as the management knows, have never shown any interest in the home or been near it—has grown to be very large (a little over half a million). but it is still not enough to carry the cost of the home. ‘The board flatters itself that it ean- not be managed more economically than $438 a year for a patient, which includes everything except overhead charges on the cost of the fldl.ntnaln the Summer, as of course you all w, gifts to hospitals largely diminish and the income from its investments is not paid at the exact moment it 15 needed, 80 we have had borrow, since July 1, & little over $5,000 for such expenses a8 linen, painting the home, and the necessary repairs to keep it in its per- fect condition. All the contributions that have been id us by the public in past years ve been endlessly generous, and now we feel justified in belleving that in | ¢ this great population there must be at least five or six thousand people who could give us $1 to express their thanks- giving that they are not forced to go t0 a home. Though possibly not well, they are still lving: in their own sur- roundings and are cared for by their own families. Public Not Informed.
