HOW THE T. S. 5. ORIGINATED.

The Tribune Sunshine Society has grown from
small beginnings until II is now an association
reaching out all the United States. and even
beyond its boundaries. The purpose of the society
Is not new nor its methods original There
have been for years similar associations in this
and other countries doing precisely the same kind
of laudable work, but the growth of The Tribune
Sunshine Society has surpassed all others, chiefly
because Of the kindly and charitable disposition of
the readers Of this newspaper. The Tribune Sun
shine Society practically developed itself. II
began with a reference this page TO "a band Of
invads and their friends" in November, 1896. and
these were spoken of "Shut-In Socie-y.' The
next stage reached on December g. 1896, when
the following announcement appeared in The Trb-
une:
The Tribune Shut-In Club is becoming so large
that the Only Woman's Page will hereafter devote
special time and space TO its interests
Every person who sends in idea for the Shut-In
Club Immediately becomes honorary member
Every shut-in Is invited send in her
christmas ideas for the benefit of her fellow
sufferers.
That supplemented January Is, 1887. by
this notice:
The Tribune Shut-In Society will hereafter be
known by the OF THE Tribune Sunshine So
ciety,' This change is made because of conflict
with a shut-ln society organized in 1884, the head
quarters Of which is at No. 90 West Thirtieth-st,

FOR A CHILD AS FOR A MAN.

At the regular meeting of the women's Confer
Of the Society of Ethical Culture held yester
day afternoon at the headquarters Madison-ave
and Fiftyninth-st. William NJ Salter the leader
of the Chicago branch of that society spoke
"Children's Questions and How TO Answer Them"
He was presented to the audience by Mrs. Luis
Seligsberg president pro tenn. after the regular
club business had been transacted. Mr.. Salter
stated in part:
chIld's desire to question means for Itself in

A STEP FORWARD.

On February o. 1900, the continued development
OF the society noted these words:
The great success of the Tribune Sunshine Society
has naturally outrun the modest arrangements
made at the outset for its conduct 1t was founded
in The Tribune office under Tribune authority by
Tribune employees as a part Of their office work.
and The Tribune freely used its columns in com
mendng the benefcent plan and the time OF its
employees in extending II.
Thus started and fostered, II has spread in a way
that brings qualification and concern. This
journal has stood steadily behind IT, and has thus
made itself legally and morally responsible TO many
thousands of rea1ers for the appeals il has pre-
sented to them and the responses II has received
Multitudes OF Sunshine packages and no tnconsider-
able OF Sunshine money have been constantly
sent to this office. The regular counsel OF The
Tribune advised that under such circumstances both
the contributors and this journal should be pro-
tected by a legal organization and treasurer under
its supervision otherwise IL would be trintng with
the legal and moral responsibilities il assumed An
incorpOra ton accordingly effected from among
members in its office with time and aptitude for

FRIGHTENING SAD LIVES.
WORK OF THE ISLAND MIssIoN-A BLIND
GIRLS CHOICE OF BOOKS

Probably no money spent by the Island Mission
during the last year has given more pleasure than
the few dollars expended upon "Evangeine,"
Tennyson's Princess and selections from Long
fellows poems, all in raised characters. for young
blind girl in the epeptic ward OF the City Hos
pital on BackweIls Island. The girl is intelligent
and able to read with her fingers but before these
stories were given her she had only one book in
raised characters. and in the intervals of the
tacks to which she is subject spent long hours
sitting drearily in the dark. The books were her
choice.
None OF the people in the epteptic ward are
capable OF continuous effort but they are much
OF the time as well as any one. The island mission
has contributed toward the support OF a teacher
for these unfortunate people.
The Special Diet Fund given by this mission
has been the means of helping back strength

According to the report of the superintendent OF
the New-York City Training School for Nurses, at
