Progressive Business Men's club send
Ing her a check for $5 at Christmas. Bhe

when her married daughter and son-ln
law, a shlpworker, came to live -with her
and help meet living expenses, she moved
Into the two story house at 604 Third
'street Mrs. McLaughlin's receipts show
that she kept her rent paid promptly in
advance until the ninth of this month.
Bhe began paying rent at the. rate of 1S
a month and the amount was raised to
$20 a month by the owners of the house.
Misses. A. M. and M. A. Carroll. About
a month ago her son-in-law and his
-wife moved Into another- house and
when the -month's rent In advance came
due . on April 9. she did not have the
money to pay it. At the same time she
says she was desirous of getting a
mailer house.

her door, giving her notice to vacate- for
, ' non-payment of rent It Is said that the
. house can be rented for $30 a month.
Mrs. McLaughlin said today to Mrs. T.
J. Baldwin, a 'Red Cross visitor and to
a Journal representative: "We have
. never gone hungry. We have had plain.
good food at all times, thanks to the
Red Cross and my-own work. .1 have
, been expecting to get my allotment
every day, and my boys have kept wrlt
, Ing me, saying not to be discouraged
. and not to worry for the money would
; surely come. I'm not complaining. My
boys over at the front are having a
hard time, and I'm going to do the best
. I can without whimpering,"
The widow said she expected to find
another, smaller house, for which her
rent would be $4 a month and that had
a- garden In connection with It Her
married daughter. she added, has been
' bringing her some provisions. The Red
1 Cross win help her move.
'' "Mrs. McLaughlin Is only one of a
; number of worthy people subjected to
! hardship because of failure to receive
government allowances and allotments"
said Mrs. J. N. Davis of the Red Cross,
this Tooming. -- "It -seems too tad that
the help Is deferred in Instances like this
where both the merit and the need are
so clear." -' -
Mrs.-McLaughlin received a check for
120 this, morning from, the organization
of fathers and mothers of soldiers.
