WHY THE OTHER FAILED

stopped in Butte TO visit those here
who were interested in the Crittenden
home In speaking last evening OF the
failure of the home here, Mr.. Morton
said ii was in no sense due to the circle
of local people. who acted in the capac
ity of a governing Or advisory board.
THE people of Butte were more than
generous in responding to our appeals
when we undertook the work here and
the Butte people who had anything to

that all the responsibility rested upon
herself and would not listen 10 her ad-

and we can only put down the failure
here az a good lesson that will teach

are doing in the future out of the 81
homes that have been established by
uhe National Florence Crittenden mis-
sion in the United States, this is the
only failure we ever made and the ~
now in existence are in tiouIishing

other home here and next time we Will
