dren appeared in county court Satur-

habits, is not qualified to care for the
little ones. The father, Aug Garske,
died about year ago and since then
the family has been receiving aid from
the city. While the father was living

was often called upon to 60 to the home
to quiet disturbances. Since her hus-
hands death it is alleged Mrs Garske
has been addicted to drink and has
neglected her children.
