The great war may be over but the fight and struggle against poverty, ignormance and disease still goes on. Each welfare agency in our it fighting these same enemies and cac® from a different angle. Close team work is the only successful way by which to conquer. One of the im- portant aims of the Charity Organiza- tion is to serve as a central bureau for all charity work in New Britain and th act as a clearing house throuzh the, confidential exchange. We all Tun a risk of overlapping and conflicting in aid and advice or of total neglect in some other quarter. Forces must pull together to succeed. Another important aim is to try to strengthen and make independent and solf supporting the weakened home | auests for .old age, | } Whatever creed or denomination for which they seem to have the stronz- est preference. This is not ‘done with pecial hope to obtain church ma- aid. Our families with their uragements and trials need the courage gand strength which the chureh can give them. The Cha other important aim of Organization is to give emer- 1id when required. This work is of course done but the many re- services of various sorts demanding medical and legal aid, ed- waation in home-making, and en- eottragement in the face of difficul- ties which require not a penny spent bat hours of valuable time and our utmost bit of intellizence, prove that in our battle against poverty we | need faith and hope as well as chari- ty. [he question is repeatedly “What necd can there be for aid in the prosperous times of today?” We give the same true answer—that the problems of illnessg accident. mental and physical handicaps, illegitimacy, desertions, non-support, and continue to require our vigilant service. Work has been so pléntiful that no family possessing an able bodiede man appears any- where on our relief lists. Desertion and non-support still held a place well toward the front among the causes for need. FEighteen families durir‘g the last vear asked, widowhood e e e — —— the i have found nl 1920. necessary to ask for assistance be- cause the fathers preferred to let someone clse support their children or the burden of bringing up a fami- Iy being too much, they departed suddenly. Strenuous efforts were al- ways made to locate this type of man while we temporarily Thelped care for the family. An introduction of the returned father to the Judge wenerally resulted in an arrange- ment for weekly support which we sometimes handled. Thus there are many phases 1o our work, the common welfare of hu- manity. We ean go on year after yvear trying with all the facilities our command to patch up these bro en families and wrecked-lives. That is put a part-of the task. Préventable diseases, poor housing and exorbi- tant rents, immorality, - illiteracy, shiftlessness, child labor—all are contributing €auses of poverty. Many of these are unnecessary evils. Can we not as a community ,put forth an extra combined effert to fight common enemy, poverty, with defi- nite and constructive work toward the upbuflding of our future citizens.

POLICE COURT k Pined After Arrest by In brief, materials and production costs must come down in the very near future or the price of Paige cars must inevitably go up. These two elements—materials and production costs—are the controlling factors in price making and upon them rests the entire manufacturing structure. B T L — We have stated the facts in a blunt, straightforward way. Paige cars are today selling for less than the cost of production and’you, of course, realize that such a condition cannot continue indefinitely. 2y Policemnn — Boys ot It merely remains to affirm that we shall not, under any circumstances, depart from the high standards of quality which have always char- acterized our vehicles. Irrespective of cost, the Paige will continue to be a fine mechanical product—worthy of your complete respect and cofifidence. : Sosnion.
