The charity for whose benefit the re-
ception Is given is an off-shoot Of the
Woman's Christian Association, and

general heart. 1t proteges are the
children of the workers in the factories,
who find working and living correlatives

tions which il is the delight and glory OF
motherhood Of the leisure class TO bestow.
TO the credit of Richmonders be IT said
that it has never needed public emphasis
to command public response.
