Altogether for the feeding of the 1900
starving little ones during the winter
$500 will be necessary. and the council
Is to be asked to vote $4,000 to make up
the amount required and place it at tn,

to obviate the loss of civic rights en-
tailed by the children's parents should
their offspring be directly fed by the
authorities. Parents who do not send
their children to schol are fined unless
they can give medi :al authority for keep
