If our domestic leather market isn't relieved the prices of shoes will advance still higher. Isn't it about time the American people protected themselves by demanding an embargo on leather, or at least have an export duty put into force that will enable American shoe manufacturers to meet foreign competi- tion and in turn lower the costs of shoes to YOU? a a” Ew The Surprise Stores I Gacaed 262-274 Greenwich Street, (Near Warren Street) NEW YORK CITY.

A fund of $150,000 has been raised to assist those hospitals and dispensaries |which have been put to much extra expense by the enormous influx of free patients, and the committee ex- pects to raise $100,000 more for the same purpose.

We go over these reports with great care, If we find that Johnnie Jones missed even one of his scheduled treatments |we send a nurse to Johnnie's house to find out what the trouble Is. Five |nursing assoctations are co-operating with us; the Henry Street Settlement, the Bureau of Educational Nursing of the Assoclation for Improving the Condition of the Poor, the Association for the Ald of Crippled Children, the Brooklyn Committee on Crippled Children, and the Social Bervice of New York Hospital. Each organiza.
