“It costs but little money to in
vestigate cases, and I save most of
that expense by making applicants
for help investigate themselves, sub
mitting references from the local
postmaster, physician and minister.”
Good Luck!
“Well, Daddy Jim, here’s good
luck to the Sunny South Brother
hood, and if there is anything I can
do in my humble way to help the
good work along, just call on Uncle
Charlie. You will always find me
right there with the goods.
“God bless you in your noble ef
forts to bring sunshine and cheer to
the suffering and afflicted souls of
your beautiful Southland.—Frater
nally yours, CHARLES NOEL DOUG
LAS, ‘UNCLE CHARLIE.’ ”
NOW GO RIGHT TO WORK.
Isn’t that a splendid letter?
Through every line there shines the
innate nobleness of the great-heart
ed man who wrote it. A man in good
health, thinking of the poor crippled
fellow who has made life brighter
for so many, can’t help feeling the
glow of shame creep over his face
for his own unworthiness, or. shall
we say, thoughtlessness? Most folks
don’t stop to think about these
things. Now you sit down in a quiet
corner, and think it all out. Then
go to work. Find out the crippled,
helpless, destitute ones ..in your own
neighborhood. Talk with them, and
if you and those around you are not
able to take care of them, WE WILL.
For all practical purposes, our Broth
erhood is already in existence, al
though it has no organization. You
know, as well as I do, that the read
ers of this paper •will never turn a
deaf ear to a cry for help. Letters
can be addressed to the Sunny South
Brotherhood, Thomson, Ga.
