Ensign Ha nsen in charge of the
Houghton Sal yation Army corps was
busy this after noon giving out Christ
mas baskets 10 the poor of Houghton
and Hancock who presented tickets for
the same. over one hundred well filled
baskets were dist ributed. The money
collected i'm the Christmas kettles on
the streets enabled Miss Hansen to
purchase seventy chickens and these
together with meat that was donated
enabled her 10 provide meat in each
basket. other articles in the baskets
were potatoes, canned goods, sugar,
cranberries coffetS bread, fruit and
other little delicacies.
In searching for needy families, Miss
Hansen found some very destitute fam
lilies in her district. especially in Han
cock. one family is reported TO have
been on the verge OF starvation. The
father is i'm the last stages Of con-
sumption and is at present at the
county tuberculosis hospital, unable
to do any work whatever. The meth

works hard, is addicted 10 liquor and

the only provider for the family is

done his best to help his brothers and
sisters turned TO the wall and sobbed
as if his heart would break He had
once had a taste of Christmas cheer
but knew that this year he would be
unable to provide any.
Ensign Hansen told of another case
where the mother was practically in
sane and the father a confirmed
drunkard.
In their daily ministration to the
poor the Salvation Army workers
come across much poverty and mis-
cry which is unknown to people not
familiar with the condition of the poor
Hansen states that real poverty in the
village Of Houghton is very scarce and
that most of the cases of restitution
are in the outlying districts. She is
highly pleased with the success of the
Christmas dinner for the poor and is
very grateful to the residents and bus
inessmen Of Houghton for the willing
ness with which they subscribed to
the cause.
This is Ensign Hansen's first year in
Houghton and she has been hampered
somewhat by a lack Of aides, having
only one woman assistant. A service
is conducted every Sunday morning at
the county Jail which the prisoners

WONDERF Ill CURE

"About eleven years ago was trou-
bled with sore hands, so sore that when
i would put them ina water the pain
would very nearly set me crazy, the skin
would peel of and the flesh would get
hard and break. There would be blood
flowing from at least fifty places on
each hand. Words could never tell the
suffering l endured for three years. l
tried everything that i was told TO use
for fully three years. but could get no
relief. | tried at least eight different
doctors, but none of them seemed TO
do me any good, as my hands were as
bad when | got through dOCtoring as
when l first began. i also tried many
remedies, but none Of them ever did me
one cents worth OF good. ! was dis

so bad mornings when got up. TO think
i had 10 90 to work and stand the pain
for ten hours, and L often felt like Civ

separately, so as TO try and keep them
soft and then wear gloves over the rags
TO keep the grease from getting on my
work. At night l would have to wear
gloves in bed. In fact l had TO wear
gloves all the time. After doCtoring for
three years, and spending much money, a
single box Of Cuticura Ointment ended
all my sufferings. It's been eight years

In an excellent position TO carry out
the reform measures so successfully

the past year.
That the visitorial and supervisory

retormatory, correctional or charitable
character. with authority To correct

The suggestion that there be reposed
In the board the right of visitation of

right of the state to exercise super
vision over institutions existing by

the state should be i'm a position TO

that dependents receive proper care. At

throughout the state warrant the rec
