LIFE
The story of an Oregon family,
bravely fighting adversity to win the
father free from the charge of mur

against odds made overwhelming by
the influenza scourge; the story of a
Salvation Army lassie's work of
mercy through the long drear days
of fever when a mother and seven
children fought for life in cramped
quarters; has come to light at Eu
gene, Oregon.
The death of the girl and the
funeral, the gripping pathos of the
stricken, accused father, alone of all
the family of nine, torn by great sobs
as he stood at the foot of the little
grave, brought the case to the public
attention. The Salvation Army has
been taking care of the family for
days, then.
