When Neighborly Help Is Needed Wise counsel and the thoughtful solving of problems with the aid of the Family Welfare worker often return troubled individuals and home groups to the ways of happiness and material wellbeing. Human needs often go beyond the physical needs. And help in solving the greater human needs often removes the cause of the physical needs. This is the thought behind the constructive work being done in Ann Arbor by the Family Welfare Association. The Family Welfare is not satisfied with giving material relief that may be of only temporary benefit, it seeks to bring about conditions that will restore and preserve the happiness and well being of individuals and of homes. It offers counsel, and neighborly assistance, and emergency succor to those in trouble. Through its workers and its functions, the good-willed people of Ann Arbor can be good neighbors to many distressed persons, young and old, who ordinarily would not come within the orbits of their daily lives. The Family Welfare is one of the 11 local agencies supported or helped by the Community Fund, contributions to which are being solicited this week. All 11 are doing worthy work in Ann Arbor. All deserve the support of those who would be "good neighbors."

ADDING TO THE BRIGHTNESS OF LIFE Sunbeams are the Girl Scouts of the Salvation Army. Here they are at one of their meetings. Among the activities supported in part or whole by the Community fund is the relief, social, and character-building work of the Salvation Army in Ann Arbor. The Army looks after needy transients. It provides them with lodging, food, clothing, and other assistance as demanded by circumstances. The Sunbeams are youngsters from 8 to 11 years of age, who meet regularly, received useful training, do worthy work, and have a good time under wholesome auspices. The general Community Fund solicitation will be in full swing next week when all Ann Arbor residents who are interested in the welfare of their neighbors and of the community as a whole will be given an opportunity to contribute.
