MISS M ARG ARET REID for the mothers of Armenia. They came to me on cold and stormy winter days, only last winter; I saw them open their arms to show me * little naked babe lying there and then beg me for a pi«?ce of cloth, even a plere of burlap, anything to wrap around the tender little body.

I wish you all might have the Joy I have had, to pick up a thin, starved, sickly, dirty little mite o f humanity, hair matted, with awful sores, and with your own hands to wash him and clean him and to feed him and heal him. and In a few weeks to see him changed Into a wholesome, happy, normal kiddle. "T h e hard part comes when the orphanage is full and the budget ex­ hausted and yon have to turn away the starved and desolate boys and girls from the gates. In my own orphan­ age we never refused admittance to a very little one. W e couldn't. We jammed them in some place. But again and again we had to turn away a big boy and sometimes the larger girls, because 'there was no room.’ "Am erica has been generous, Oregon has been generouH, but we must con­ tinue to think and think hard, for these kiddies If they are to be kept warm and safe and protected and happy through this desperate time ahead ” A N O T H ER SW AT FO R T H E F L Y Supreme t;ourt of Maine Adds It* Voice to Denuncistion of Almost Universal Pest.
