Through its efforts, the German Savings Bank and the German Hospital have been founded, and in like manner it should aid in establishing a free Home for old men unable to work, and an Asylum for Incurables and Convalescents, who at present are not received at any hospital. To accomplish this purpose unassisted, would hardly be possible, but we hope that the realization of these suggestions may be attained by the aid and co-operation of the German population of this city. If the celebration which we are preparing in honor of the Centennial of the German Society should contribute to the establishment of one of these institutions, it would be a fitting close to the first century of its existence, and would insure beneficent consequences.
