| 1t may seem unnecessary to add asingle word
! to the above address, but calls upon the inStitu-
ton have been so numerous and pressing, andthe
struggle through which it is now passing to wi
den the circle of its charities, is of such ardu--
GUS nature that the management cannot TOO
strongly urge upon the HUMANE 4 PATHETIC
! everywhere an active participation in this addi
| tionaI attempt to alleviate the sad condition Of
great numbers of helpless children, rendered thus
| by the terrible war through which We have pass
/ ed. And assuredly, whatever may have been the
relative political Views of ladies and gentlemen
| heretofore, all must agree that the children re-
~
| any agency in bringing about their present
| DEPLORABLE DESTITUTE CONDITION,
and suitable objects for the charity of all per-
sous or whatever shade of political opinion. Tho
| IS ''HOME AND SCHOOL" L1F.g
which they now more particularly seek to estab
fish and endow, will be of incalculabe benefit by
providing not only food and ramlent for these
helpless ones, but likewise solid and thorough ed
pcation, thus qualifying them for 3i.sts ~
