nities asking for co-operation. All

residence district in behalf of the
work.

The Bee's Free 31 ilk
and Ice Fund
The price of an ice cream soda or
a cigar may easily save the life of a
baby if applied to The Bee's Milk
and Ice Fund.
And if you multiply the sum by
ten or hlty, it has just that much more
power.
Every cent goes to buy milk or ice.
Not a cent is spent in administrating
the fund. That is done through the
agency of existing charitable organ
izations, which, however, have no
other funds for this particular pur
pose.
Do YOUR PART now.
Bring or send your contribution to
The Bee office.
