There are no strings to this challenge. We both with our workers, will knuckle down to hard work, and the fact that there is a contest between New York and this city will make all parties work harder and roll up a big fund in each city. No matter who wins, we will have the satisfaction of having done a most substantial bit for the fund and thus aid the deserving children' Uare you accept the challenge? JULES E.
