The society has among it's members a
little family of three who have had more
than their share of trouble. Several
years ago the head of the family met
with an accident and has never been well
since, but few weeks ago he was in
jured again and since then has not been
able to leave his bed The little grand
son, who makes the third member of the
family, is a frail little fellow of ID and
cannot do much to help his grandparents.
They have pleasant little home,
bright and warm, and wish to rent some
of the rooms, furnished or unfurnished,
to help bring in a little income. The
preference is expressed for some girls
who are employed during the day and if
desired, breakfast and dinner will be
given. -, & .r.s r., .. g.. -. st. q. =

REPORT OF SUNSHINE SOCIETY

Read Before the State Federation OF
Wonaen's Clubs.
The growth Of the Sunshine society has
been so phenomenal during the six years
of it's existence that even Its founder,
Mrs. Cynthia MISSIONER Alden, can
scarcely realize that her little thought ex-
pressed in dingy newspaper office in
New York has received the endorsement
of over 100000 persons, who today are
enthusiastically bearing the banner Of the
Sunshine society. To give a report Of
all that the 500 members of the Mime
sofa division Of this great society ac-
complish would be impossible even were
allotted more time for so much of it
is made UP seemingly of little things; the
endeavor to do something each day to
tighten me-ones burdens: to speak the
cheerful word to the discouraged and dis
heartened, the word that may bring new
hope, new life and new energy; to take
kindly notice Of the lonely: and manifest
in numerous personal ways the human,
sympathetic interest in ones fellow crea-
lures.
Opportunities for doing a kindness are
often lost for lack of thought and the
| members of the Sunshine society strive
to cultivate the habit of sympathy thai
| will give them keener grasp and g
| fuller understanding of the lives of those
around them. Each state Organization
endeavors to have at least one estab-
lished feature and at present Minnesota
Sunshiners regard their outing work as
| the main feature. 80 = !. -
