Tho specter of   efficient  ood
proper Investigation ot olaima for
poor relief haa been  flaunted bo*
lore the faces of the directors  of
the poor of .Blair   ooooty    for
years. Under Peoooylvaoia   law,
directors of the  poor may   give
temporary relief to thoae io distress   assisting tbem   over   the
rough spots io tbeir patheway B,|if
thay are found   worthy. Tbia  la
moro economical  thou to   toko
peraooa or  families to tho alma
hooee.
It ta tbe doty of tbe directors to
investigate applications made to
tbem for relief In yeara that are
gone, the directors were able to
cope artth the situation; recently,
tbe applications bave come so
thick and taat it ia next to impossible for a director to attend to the
aod pursue any other occupation,
the presumption of the law being
that the office is a part time job.
The time therefore seems to
have come for the appointment
of oo official investigator, one who
woold take up the applications
made for relief add ran tt dowo,
ao to apeak, to ascertain tho authenticity of tbe gapljcatioo. From
the number of applications oom*
log to tbe members of tb*vboard
and especially t_-te one wring
charge of the district composed of
the oity of Altoooa and ita environs, the time seema to be ripe for
aome action. :M___k_i     .••%-_■*.•?]
