Six=year=old Girl Plays With
Matches and Clothes
Catch Fire.

Savinella Santa Pietro, 6 years old,
was so severely burned today in her
home at Is Drift street that she MAY
die. Her parents were in the cellar
when the child went into a dark closet
and struck a match. A spark set fire
to her skirt n in a moment she was
a mass of flame.
Sabbianno Vendvella, living in the
adjoining apartment, heard her screams
and ran over. AT first he tried to
smother the fire which was consuming
her clothing with a towel. In so doing
he burned his own hands badly.
Then he seized several skirts and
other articles of clothing which were
hanging on a wall and in these ne
wrapped the blazing girl and thus
smothered the flames.
BY hat time the child was uncon-
scious. She was sent to the City Hos,
pital, while Vendvella's burns were
treated by a doctor.

causes the recipient to resent the Civ

it becomes a curse rather than a
blessing"
Mrs. Dawson declared that often the
visitor herself was the one to receive
encouragement by the visit, upon see
ing the cheerfulness which many
poor families displayed In adversely.
