11 118 D on of the ro- ports Mr. W. J. Brawders con- curred with the previous spgakgr concerning conditions. There r-as a real need for a Society such as the F's-cc Dispensary. he believed.

The thanks of the meeting were znctendcd to the President, Major idoNutt, Mis Earle and Mrs. Cot» ion for their effective work dur- ing the year. Resolutions of thanks were extended also to the Mayor and City council for the use of the Board ,.where last night's meeting was held, to the press and CFCY for services rendered throughout the year.

PIISlDI-ZNT‘! REPORT

Ladies and Gentlemenz-Jn pre- sentin my report as President of the Cty Dispensary for the past year, let mo first say that I have never held a similar office in any Association and had so little to do. Not because your Society does not do s, great deal of work, but wholly on account of the faithful and in- forested work of the Secretary- Treasurer, Mrs. Cotton, and that of the Visitor, Miss Earle, backed up by members an Executive Committee. who are ever ready to play their Part. There are, perhaps, avenues o work, your President did not e lore to advantage but. as it was. t e duties of your Presi- were not

arduous.

‘Tonight we have s new Con- stitution and By-Laws to present to you for your consideration, which will ta/ke some time. and for this reason it was not thought advis- able to have a s iai speaker. But for a few minu s. irrespective of what h said of those who re- minisce, it may be well to review ve briefly the work of this So- sincc its inception.

pensar- was organized on

tho 2 November 1900, 26 ears ago last November. and has unc- tloned ever sinoo in aid of the “f2!-

W. 7- ‘Edmund-i, rm lion- Prosldont, was tho Presi-

Tho chief object 0C the Stnioty

(If dent

at was to give leadorshi in tho t. against Tuberouosis with s.

vinciol Gganlzation then organised. It seems that at the intention was to bring in s member of the Victorian Order of Nurses, but very shortly Mrs. Cotton the Miss DeBlcis, was ap- pointed v m, and she filled the ition with efficien fact and mrmsghneas until 1 . when 5119 was succeeded by the present in- cumbent Miss Earle, who has car- ried on according to tradition, so that wo have been particularly hapPy in that respect. 1n addition to the direct fight against Tuberculosis, the Society immediately interested itself in such° as mlilk and meat fr; spec . suppy o pure ce City householders. sanitation in the schools construction of an Abat- toir a against expectorating on #10 streets. public incineration, dis- v » ion of good health literature, erection of s Sanatorium appoint- ment c! a, Health Officer medical kiopoctrion of school ch n, dis- ease free area for cattle and later a housing scheme for the poor. At first your Society was a‘ lone voice calling for these advances. Interest however, developed and a united voice browht about many of these 2c orms. The Society, at first, as always. was d a lack of funds, but abou 1912 it received its first grant of $100.00 from the City. which hel make it possible that to give M0 doaens of eggs and 235 gallons of milk t0 those in need. Mr. Joseph McCarey succeeded Mr. Tidmarsh in March 1914. and m April 1924 Dr. S. R. Jenkins was elected President. which office he held until his death, when Mr. Tidmarsh a ain accepted the Presi- dency, whi he held until a year ago. Mr, Tidmarsh gave 27 years of continued. and active service to the Socieg. Wi the coming of the Red Orou Sooie to oln in the fight

Department of Public Health, the wort of tho Society was devoted more to the providing of free medi- cine. ‘ ‘L food, and other ne- cessities to those in the Cit , re- quiring assistance, which wor has during the past year been carried on efficiently and to as great an extent as funds permitted. 1n ad- dition the usual treat for needy children took place at the Dispens- ary the day before Christmas, and which I can truthfully state was handled by the ladies in a most masterly manner. Thanks are due . A. L. MacPherson for hav~ lnlg performed the duties of Santa Caus

Notwithstanding the large a- mounts given by Government and City to those out of employment. the need of the Dispensary seems to be increasing. and will do so, fear. unless in place of the dole. a scherls is evclv by those in authority to provide work for our citizens _ __ ___

1f I may venture an opinion, I believe. as I stated here some years ago. that there are too man sourc- es in this City where relic can be had. We have what may be celled the progressive needy who explore every possible avenue of securing relief and usually get it. Likewise we have in this respect the less progressive needy. who may often not receive their fair share of re- lief due to their reticence. I be-

or!‘ in Relief should be consolidated

e or e pensary or - minmrati n. The resolution was adopted, ut no action seems to have been taken. However. I be- lieve, if action had been taken it would have been the first ate to- wards an economical admin tra- tion of relief in this City. Eventu- ally some such system must evolved. or else ,we must xotum to the oldest system of all, viz. each Church rovide for its needy.

As bot the Secretary-Treasurer and the Visitor will present reports to you coveri the work of the year. I will no infringe on their sphere to any extent. However, would indeed ‘be an oversight if I did not 1n a special way make men- tion of the splendid work being carried on by Miss Earle. Not only does she attend to the many duties connected with work in the Dis-

needy in all sections of the C ty- From outside sources I hear of her roviding soups and other delicac- es from her own home and at her own expense to those in need. and l feel these acts of kindness should be pink-ed on record and acknow- ledged by the Society.

During the year the late Mrs. Jane Robinson bequeathed to the Dispensary the sum of one hund- red dollars. This was laced in a safety deposit box in t e Bank of Nova Scotia, with the balance of the capital fund.

'I‘his capital fund will be re- ferred to in the new by-laws which

presented to vou this even- ing, now stands as fo1lows:—-

Miss Fanny Jenkins ~— — —$500.00 Mrs. Brent Longworth - — 500.

Mrs. Mary Jane Lane — - 500.00 Alexander Gillis — — — -— 100.00 Mrs. Jane L. Robinson - — 100.00

In May last the following mem- bets of the Socity were swaniod the Coronation Medal inscoogziltion of long and faithful services.-

Cotion. Mr W- I‘. Tid- marsh and Hon. Dr. Macmillan. These honours were well merited. In addition, your President for the year was likewise honoured.

In acknowledging these honours, it is hardly necessary but at tho same time it is right, thllt w! should as a Society give expression to that great Prayer-God Save the King-and at the some time e:- press the hope that all our citizens will be directed in the path of Em- pire service in thought word and deed and also to pray that he who rules and they wn govern may bo guided aright in their effort-s for the greater unity and develop- ment of the Empire and the peace of all Nations.

During the year two valued members were taken from us by death, Mrs, Charles Lyons and Mr. John McKenan. Both were for man-y years sincere and faithful workers. Resolutions of regret and sympathy were sent to their fem- ililetsmgroan your lbseoutin Com- m

In closing I wish to express my sincers iahaniss to the Officials and members of our Executivs Com- mittee and to Miss lilarie fa their every ready and faithful work, t0 the press and C. F. C. Y, for publicity freely given. and to all So- cieties and individuals who, in any way, contributed to the Dbpen- sary, so aicli to can-y on its work in behaf of die needi-y of this Ci

I have only so ask you

citizens in general to continue to

support the Dispensary as liberally

as possible.

Yours faithfully

MISS EAlhl-ES REPORT

"In presenting this annual rc- port of the Free Dispensary we are conscious that there 1a little new and nothing startling or dramatic in tho account of the year's work—it is just the same as on former occasions-a story of daily. quiet. persevering attempts to help. the ‘aged and needy ones in our City," Miss Amy C. Earle. district nurse said in her review of the year.

"Six hundred and seventy-three visits were made to the homes where our aid was required," she continued. "The mornings are spent in this work; in the after- noons the Dispensary room is open and we receive applicants, hear their stories, and help them as best we can. That they are grate- ful for our aid is very evident. and one would need unlimited time and strength to satisfy those who beg for more visits. I have gone sometimes three times to a home in one morning with medi- cine, nourishment. etc._ and it is a long journey on foot from one end of Charlottetown to the other.

"When the Dispensary funds permit, we supply medicine and nourishment. Our drug bill is our largest one~this year $716.06. We keep a supply of simple medicine on hand, which can be given out without a doctor's orders, and fill numerous doctors‘ prescriptions. In this connection the Dispensary is increasingly grateful to our splendid dnciors who give so gen- erously of their time and skill to those who cannot pay for their services.

"From time to time donations of sample cough medicines, ionlos, salvea and disinfectants come to us. These are gratefuizy received and are ve useful for there is an unlimi demand for all of these.

"Our expenditure for nourish- ment was unfortunately limited last year but whenever we cannot supply the assistance required our- selves we try to get in touch with some generous friend who will surglly the needed help.

man to My who has had no work all winter. Consequently. when such a one does get work he has to pay the accumulated back rent. as well as that which still goes on —h0w can he possibly provide for the workless winter ahead? And so each autumn sees more ap- plicanta for relief. We realize that relief is a tremendous expense to City and Province, but as a mat- ter cf fact. the individual family on relief does not get enough food to nourish it properly. What can bo purchased in this way makes a splendid foundation on which to build if the grown-ups can get work-but when there is no work available, what is to be done?
