It waa v^en duly incorporated to pp>toct the in dividual liabilities of its members. One of the greatest dangers in work of this kind is that it becomes easy to pauperize a class .of people who are able to work when relieved of a condition of want. These cases are met by limiting the amount available in any one case to not more than $7.50 except on a unani mous recommendation of the board of directors. The fullest investigation of every case is necessary before help is given. In order to save the physicians from being victimized under the cloak of charity the ]>oard will have the benefits of their as- listhnce. but saver them from membership. Owing to the fact that the funds at present are but a small sum, the board will find it necessary to limit their services very largely to the town of Barn well,, and its immediate ' territory.
