Several complaints having been made, lately, that old gold, coins and other arti- cles were given men calling at houses and the people are out their valuables without any recompense. Mrs. Reed pointed out that even in boom times it has been necessary for - communities to provide food, shelter. emplnv- ment, guidance and care of the crippled and sick and agzerl. Hard times and unemployment, Mrs. Reed said, have multipli- ed the number of needy to the point where private charitv ‘could no longer meet the uti- precedented demands, and so governmental agencies have gradually assumed more and more of the burden of relief, such as food and shelter. Common Council members. at the meeting Monday night, reversed; recent action and sus- ‘oended all the tax penlalties until January 1. It being thought that this action would stimulate the ~_f low of tax monies into the de- pleted‘ 'Clty:trea‘su1-y: ' ‘ V The Counil also requested C‘-itv Treasurer Paul J.

That is what counts. It is the part of the character building or- ganization to help in this de- velopment, to prevent demoml- lizing influences from catchin‘! their strangle hold on youth.
