afternoon for the purpose of deciding upon
an effort looking to the starting of a fund

thusiasm was displayed, the ladies being

WoMAN'S CHRISTIAN TEMPER
ANcE UNION
Decide to Open a Day Nursery In the
Near Future.


AT the meeting of the Woman's Christian
temperance Union, held yesterday after
noop, II was voted to open day nursery as
soon as practicable. The day nursery in
other places has been found most helpful
ana Denehcent charity, where working
women can leave their little ones for the
day, and know that they are receiving low
ing care and attention.
1t would be a surprise to those who have
had no previous knowledge to learn of the
number. of children who are kept from
school to care for the younger ones, often
little girl Of eight or nine years OF age,
having the care of two or three younger
ones, and we have known OF several in
stances where two or more little children
almost babies-have been locked up in
rooms while the mother was away working
for their support
The following letter, which the president
OF the W. G. T. U. received, should have
special weight as coming from the secretary
OF the Associated Charities:
18 CITY HALL /
February 20, 1890.
Mrs. George s. Hunt:
learn with much pleasure that the W. 9. T. U.
purposes TO open a "day nursery" In Portland. 1
have been eager that some advance step should
be taken In benevolent work. and felt that the
time was at hand when 1t would be done.
IN my own experience had seen SO much need
OF WorB, and training for WORK among the very
poor that to provide for this need had seemed to
me an almost Indispensable accompaniment to
day nursery. & The two enterprises would require
so large an outlay that hardly knew when our
people would have the courage to attempt them,
although hoped the day was not far distant.
thinking the matter over carefully, see no
reason why the nursery by Itself may not be a
most excellent beginning. am very glad that
hearts so resolute aud hands so strong for good
work as are those of the association you repre-
sent, are ready for the attempt.
recall many cases where It would have been a
great blessing to those In our care, saving little
ones from being left to suffer Alone or relieving
older children Of undue care ana loss of school
privileges. a
But Flock FOR far wider and higher results than
these benefits needful as they are. in the better
development Of the children and the larger op-
portunlties for them, which are Likely to grow out
81 this movement.
that lies In the closer contact of the fortunate
and unfortunate, the wider knowledge that will
cCne to the former class of the needs and sor-
rows, and limitations of the very poor. And here
the touch will come where human nature Is mo st
tender In the hearts of the mothers. Happy
prosperous mothers, learning how the little ones
live who grow up to make our s'unfoI tunate
classes" must grow tenderer In their judgments
save.
Hoping that you will receive sufficient encour-
agement to begin your work under very favorable
conditions, am
