The Cuban bankers gave out hundreds of loaves of bread each day. and soup houses are opened at which 10.000 rations are served weekly at a cost of $450 per week. The mission schools of the Methodist Church South. with over 200 pupils. are assisting all of their patrons. except three. by contributions of food and clothes which our Womans Parsonage and Home Mission Society have sent from over the State. Children come to school without a mouthful of food. and must be fed before they can be taught. The needs are being increased by the constant incoming of refugees from Havana. Many families. formerlywealthy. are now entirely dependent. Do you not think this state of affairs should be recognized in the appropriation for aid?
