ANNUAL REPORT OF
CRITTENTON home
INCREASING INFLUENCE or AS

AND SENT TO USEFUL LIVES
INpusrRIAL WORK AND HOME
ENviRoNM EMIT APPRECIATED.

Miss Lillian Topping, superintendent
OF the F1orence Critteuton home has
completed her report for the past year.
The report has been published In PAM
phlet form and coming as II does just
before Tag day wall give the people
an idea Of the work and prove the utter
absurdity OF the idea that the city or
state 10 as well on without the home
as with it. Some provision must be
made for these homeless girls and 1t
IL not quite fair that a few should be
allowed 20 shoulder the responsibility
and do all the work so an opportunity
will be s1Eorded on Saturday for
everyone 10 help.
The recent building Of the new home
which has been 30 badly needed has
been burden for the few earnest
workers and since only one appeal
each year 10 made 10 the people 1t lie
hoped that this will meet with gen
eTous response. Forty girls were un-
able to gain admittaraca since Jan /
on account OF the lack Of room. but no
one has been turned away without
assistance. This viii be eliminated
by the convenient and rOoEny new
home.
The girls come from vaEaoas sources
from hospitals, through physicians
and from other charitable institutions.
Some are placed there by friends,
others by the police, occasionally by
a hack driver and by the w. G. T. u.
Of the state. The Florence Crittenton
circle at Grand Forks especially has
done q great deal of splendid work In
- g.
nate girls.
A distressing feature OF the work L.
the extreme youth Of the girls. This
seems to be steadily increasing. and
the average age Is about 1e. Some OF
the girls are mothers at Is and recent
ly an appeal was made for assistance
for girl Of L.. These girls are just
as normal as others, save the heel Of
oppression or cruelty or ungensrous
impulse has crushed them for q time.
The day must come when Industrial
conditions and the soc1al laws viii be
more just so that there may not be
this continual crushing OF womanhood.
Statistics show that the largest per-
centage Of the girls come from the
occupation OF domestics It il true
here as everywhere Other occupa-
tons follow In varying numbers. The
American girls lead In the number ac-
cording to nationality. The following
Is the total number cared for: girls
cared for permanently, Eighty eight;
temporarily, eighteen; assistance given

Children cared for during the year,

There were 80 SCI meals served during

The family at the home is always
large and only through the faithful
ness OF the nurses and workers has
1t been possible to hold out a help

for assistance One look into the

This is a revolution in the fur
