Suggestion for Work.
Mr. Stephenson also offered a sug
gestion that will materially aid the
people of the city in a proper distri
bution of aid, as embodied In the fol
lowing letter:
"Your superintendent would like
to make this suggestion: That when
any person makes a pledge to the
Associated Charities, would it not
be wise to furnish them with a small
book of coupons, so that when the
j beggar applies to a member of the
Associated Charities for relief the
1 latter fills out one of these coupons
and gives It to the applicant. He
the applicant is a fraud and the story
he tells is untrue, yet the person to
whom the application is made does
not desire to take the risk of refus
ing to help a case which really may
be in want; and on the other hand
he does not wish to hurt the feelings
of the applicant or Intimate to him
that he disbelieves his story."
