Children Who Participated in
Events of Washington Rid

National Capital Horse Shows of q

ment of those who saw ride at the
Academy of the Washington Riding

and that tiny horsewoman Miss Car

These are the Helen Van Burens,
the Jeanette and Dascha Aliens, and
the Lucie Cherboniers of seven or
horsemen who are fond Of looking
into the future.
Certain 1t is that the young chill

over the tanbark some May day
afternoon at the big incloseure
down Eighteenth street, where the

Little Miss Pell was garbed as a
Dutch girl or boy at the Saturday
afternoon contest at the riding acad
emy. Owing to the fact that so many
young women nowadays ride astride.
IL is difficult to say whether Miss Pell
was riding as a Dutch boy or a Dutch
girl. Either way. at all events. she
locked quite charming.
Miss Harlan was dressed as Joan

PLORtS POVERTY
IN ADDRESS BEFORE

DR.. GIusak Tells Hebrew Organ.
ization That to Give Is Not
Charity, But Duty.

Pauperism Is a crime and the words

cording to Dr. L. Glusak, instructor N
anatomy and surgery, In the George
town University Medical School, who.
while addressing the Hebrew Relief
Society yesterday at the Adath Israel
Synagogue. said that to give is not
charity but duty"
1t was the annual meeting of the

become an active member in the Adath
israel congregation since his arrival
here three months ago was the prin-
cipal speaker. The speaker deplored
the fact that there should be any pow
erty In country where no castles are
recognized.
Charity, so-called, is nothing more
than a duty" said DR.. Glusak. Take
our hospitals, the duty of which Is to
dispense medical aid to sick and In
jured. In every case where man who
applied for treatment had to suffer the
humiliation Of getting out card and
going through other red tape the sys-
tenn shows its faultiness. These hos
pitfalls are supported by the taxpayers
to dispense relief to the needy. The
man who is I'm need OF their relief to-
greatest supporters. Therefore, theI-
dispensations should not he deemed

Modern Women
xX.-WOMEN'S WORK FOR
CHILDREN.
By Frederic j. Haskin.

The most important philanthropy of
the modern woman deals with
Fighting unjust conditions affect
ing children. 1.-THE children are
the hope of the future" de-
clared a Well-knoWn woman in a
recent address. I'VE may not be able
to Influence the parents but whatever
we do for the children now will help
the parents of the next generation"
The great child conservation move
ment, which is at work all over the
country, largely is brought about
through the efforts of Many
of them have no children of their
own but the maternal instinct inher-
ent in every Woman's breast impels
them to use their efforts toward Sc
curing to every child the indisput-
able rights of childhood; healthful
surroundings, proper education Inc a
due amount of time and space for
natural play. When the essentials
are denied to the children, the parents
of the future will pay the bill.
The greatest triumph of women's
work for children was the establish
ment last year of the Children's bu-
reau in Washington as a part of the
department of and labor.
1t is now under the new department
of labor. 1t has for it's head Miss
Julia Lathrop, who in a long expert
ence of work with Miss Jane Adams
in Hull house. has come in contact
with forms of child oppression which
she always has been alert to alleviate.
Miss Lathrop is a Vassar graduate
and has travelled extensively in Gu
rope, where she made. especial studies
of the provisions of the different Eu-
governments in caring for
their children. In some respects
they are superior to those of this
because the older countries
value their children as essential to
their population and prosperity. The
influx of immigration to the United
States is said to be. one reason why
the conservation of the children for
the future good of the nation SO
has been neglected here.
The idea of the federal bureau for

Valid, a visiting nurse of New York
city. During the rounds of her daily
work Miss Valid found so many pitt

The latest development of women's
work for children is the recognition
of a child's right to be well born. This
necessitates the mother being prop
erly cared for before. the birth of a
child, as in this way alone can the
baby he protected. In Boston, a
number of have organized for
the purpose of caring for prospective
mothers. They employ a visiting
nurse who visits the mothers regu-
larly, giving them advice as to diet,
personal hygiene and other matters
affecting their health. If a physi-
clans services seem necessary before
the confinement, the oma is adj
vised of the fact and where she has
not already secured a physician, one
is supplied to her if desired. Al
though less than three years old, this
organization is credited by Boston
physicians with having saved many
baby ives. Where a regular nurse
is not in attendance, the nurse. who
has visited the mother before the ar
rival of the baby continues her minis
trations afterWard, instructing the
mother as to the care of the. little one.
She teaches her how to battle it, and
how to prepare it's food. Especial
attention is given to the care of it's
eyes from the. moment of birth, and in
this way it is believed that the
scourge of %infantile blindness can be
greatly lessened. This work is not
charitable if the mothers feel able to
pay for the service. Usually a wom-
an in moderate circumstances will be
willing to pay a small fee to the
nurse.

A NEW A PAPER.

There is a spirit of optimism and
hope in the declaration of independ-
ence of he new republic of China.
The doctrine of modern-day politics,
forecasting the changes which are due
to take place throughout the world,
many of them being in process of
formation at the present time, is ever
present in this new state paper of ma
lions. The unrest of the people and
their desire for honest and renre-
sentative government are typified in
the expressed yearning for forgetful-
ness of the monarchy, a thing lead
and OF the past. 1t has been said that
this latest declaration reflects the in
fluence of the young Chinese educated
in the colleges of the United States.
Ii such is the case, the young men
bring credit to their schools for in the
paper is the following typical excerpt:
The representatives of the people
must share the likes and dislikes of
the people. They are to give express
sion to the desires and voice the will
of the people; they hold the reins in
behalf of he nation, to govern with
severity or leniency, with parsimony
or extravaganza: they become the
pivot upon which the prosperity of the
state is made to turn. For success or
failure, safety or danger, adversely or
good fortune, theirs is the merit or the
blame"
