One Of tho saddest phases of child life In
New York is the fate Of the Little Mothers"
among the very poor. You may sec them in
any OF the crowded streets Of the tenement
house region-little girls Of eight. ten. even
six years. with sharp: careworn faces. tug
ging smaller girls and baby boys in their thin.
bony arms. Their poor little bodies are bent
with the heavy burden, their dwarfed
little souls scarcely leas deformed. In
such families where father and mother
and all the older children arc wage earners.
the little girls too small to be hired in tho fac
tories must mind the baby. for there's always
baby to mind. In winter the little mother Is
usually locked into the dismal rooms that
such people call home. In summer she wan
ders about the street with the baby on her
shoulder. Some OF tho east side mothers sit
about on the benches in Stuyvesant square.
