Charleston, W. Va., Lodge Establishes A Shoe and Stocking Fund

After a careful survey of local conditions the Social and Community Welfare Committee of Charleston, W. Va., Lodge No. 202, recently recommended the establishment of a Fund to be used exclusively for the purpose of furnishing shoes and stockings to poor children of the city. This recommendation was adopted by the members and voluntary contributions from them have already resulted in helping many children. This fund is kept quite separate from the Lodge's Charity Fund for which no contributions have been asked for a number of years, due to the money raised for it each year by the Annual Minstrel Show. In this work Charleston Lodge cooperates with the local branch of the Salvation Army, which investigates all cases, thereby insuring proper and careful distribution.
