TELLS OF GREAT WORK
OF CRITTENTON LEAGUES.
DR.. Kate Waller Barrett, National
President, Addresses Local Home

In the interest of the Florence Crit
tenton Home, 306 Elizabeth avenue,
DR., Kate Waller Barrett, president of
the National Board of Florence Crit
tenton Leagues, addressed a meeting
last night In the Halsey Street Meth
odist Church, which was we'll attended.
DR.. William R. Ward, president of
the board of managers of the local
home, presided. DR.. Barrett told of the
work that is being accomplished by
these leagues throughout the country.
of which there are sixty-seven. and in
cluded in tina number is a home in
Mexico, Japan, China and France
DR.. Barrett cited interesting cases of
erring women and girls whose lives
had been reclaimed through the me-
dunn of the Florence C%rittenton homes
and said that this noble work was
founded by Charles N. Crittenton as
a memorial to his little daughter Flor
ence, who died in infancy. The death
of Mr.. C~rlttenton, the founder, oc-
Cured November 16, 1909, and to the
work itself the financial loss is a large
one, as during his lifetime Mr.. Crit
tenton was most generous.
lJr. Barrett referred to the value of
preventive work as well as that of
reclamation.
The local home is almost entirely
dependent upon the generosity of
friends in this city and vicinity for
support.
