As a t;ity Paper Sees the Work;
Here was how F'reeport appears in a city paper, the Tablet, referrinR In one of our chairmen of the Ladies' Conunittee at Headquarters;
• 1.a.it Salurdny nignl was the time for the Catholic ladies of Freeport to lelp in the entertaining at the Sol diers' Room on Railroad Avenue. Mrs Matthew Ryan was in charjpe and she nnd her several assistants were kept busy from early evening until late at riprht. The ladies of the parish sent donations of cakes, pies, eta, «nd itis estimated that about three hundred soldiers were jfuests of the evening. They were served generously with re¬ freshments anri cigars and seemed lo b every well pleased with their re¬ ception. A musical program was al¬ so given to enliven the occasion. The ladies are to be congratulated for the flne spirit with which they rc8p<mdod to the call, especially Mrs. Ryan, who ¦nan aged tha afTair with such suc¬ cess."
Asa matter of fact the work is non- sectarian, no consideration being paid to race or religion, although that par¬ ticular night most of the ladies (but not all) happened to be Catholic lad¬ ies as the item puts it. This item ia reproduced not only for ita news val¬ ue, but to emphasize that fact—the Freeport Federation is absolutely without religious or fraternal prefer¬ ence—all our neighbors are invited fo contribute and assist in the work and put their notices on the walls. Any man or woman who doos not help hia no exensc but lack of interest or lack of time.
