The charity workers toolc up the case, -mey went rrom orriciai to orn- cial. from charitable organization to charitable organisation, from Influential cltlsen to influential citizen, and always the same answer-was given: We can do nothing unless the child is brought to us legally and proof offered that an offense has been committed." -u Animal X, overs to tha Bescna, There existed at the time a Society for tha Prevention -of Cruelty to Anl mala . r To this the charity workers turned with the case of little Mary Ellen, and in this big enlightened na tion tha first legal protection given an abused child was under tha laws that protected dumb animals. Awakened publle sentiment called for the Investi- ?atlon of other children's cases, and rora Mary Ellen's long months of tor ture with clubs and scissors came the rescue work that has saved thousands of little ones from sickness, deah and lives of crime. From her need and that of hundreds of other children was born tha New Tork Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children, the first in all the world, leader of the hundred or mora like organizations that are now offering protection to helpless little ones. Summary rowers Bestowed. Where Mary Ellen could have no pro tection under tha law until guilt of her persecutor had been proved and suc cessive legal steps taken, tne act or the New York leelslature that Incorpor ated thia society in 1875 delegated cer tain protecting powers to it ana to jiko organisations in the words: "Any so ciety so incorporated may prerer a com plaint Dexore any court or magistrate having Jurisdiction, lor tne violation ol any law relating to or affecting chil dren, and may aid in bringing the facts before such court or magistrate In any proceeding taken." The law also pro vides that all officers of the law be re quired to aid the society in its good work. . ' . How well this law Is being enforced may be seen from an afternoon spent in the building.
