Industrial League to Help Dettitute Homes The Chicago Christian Industrial league is to conduct a drive to secure clothing and discarded household materials for destitute families. It has designated the week of September 23-30 as "Help for the Homeless Week." 'l'he league is an organization working for the homeless and destitute men of Chicago. It is also doing large constructive work in the interest of mothers and children. It is nearly self-supporting by its own industries. A, post card appeal to the public is being made at this time, which, from the standpoint of the league tells the story: "Wltat we want now is not cash but old clothes. furniture, rugs, clocks, silverware. papers, magazines, and anything you can spare." The Chicago Christian Industrial League helps sick, homeless, despairing, needy men-thousands of them in Chicago, by enabling them to help themselves, regardless of age, creed or condition. The league gathers discarded articles, gives "down-and-out" men such work as they are able to do, sells the material to poor people at the cost of remaking. It helps men but does not pauperize them. Everyone works as much as he is able for what he gets. Then he is given relief at the same time preserving selfresPect, and ultimately re~tor.ing respectability. It is not only sc1~nt!fic and efficient charity, but also chnst1an. . The more material the league rece1ves the more men it can help. A card to 833 W. :U:onroe street, Chicago, or a call to Mon'r oe 2474, will bring a wagon to the homes.
