The financial report for the month of March, read by Mrs. Wilcox, who served as secretary of the meeting, showed a balance of $156.20. Under head of communications a number of items were read from the Community Chest’s “Chest Chat,” which were interspersed by comments from the members.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'> President Wilcox reported that Mr. Redeker, official auditor of the Com. Chest, had announced readiness for the books, which were awaiting his acceptance, in complete balance and all that as they were, covering the six-month period up to Dec. 1, 1927. Some delay had been occasioned by Mr. Redeker’s attendance as an expert in a criminal trial at court.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'> Mrs. Wilcox had procured a copy of the last Denver payment in the Blind Benefits and read them as a matter of information. The report showed 142 beneficiaries with a number of eliminations, a few increases, and a number of decreases in individual cases. The total payment for the quarter was $9909.15. Report was made on the non-progress of the Hunter estate in making its award for the forthcoming year. The report explained that all the Hunter trustees were out of the city at the set time of March 25 and were still absent. The proposition of giving a May Day fete at blossom time to those of the blind who could get out for an afternoon was discussed at length. The whole matter was finally referred to the president for such action as he may deem proper. Announcement was made that the Peggy Club of the Knights of Pythias would present the monthly entertainment on May 17. On motion of Dr. Fisher, seconded by Mr. Comer, the meeting adjourned at 4:15 until May 9.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>[Signature:] Mrs. Lute Wilcox<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'>Acting Secretary.<o:p></o:p></span></p><p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:14.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman",serif'><o:p> </o:p></span></p></div></body></html>
