Philanthropy Aided by Reproduce
ton Of Scenes Showing Work
Among the Poor.
IDEA ORIGINATED WITH JEWS
Belief Is That Non-contributIns Class
VIII BE Reached Through This
Aeency-No Real Danger to
the Eyesight From Watch
ing the Films.

Here, in brief, is the story Of How
the Jews Care for Their Poor" as told
in successive pictures;
A young Russian Jewess, after the
death of her husband, comes to Amer
lea with her little boy and girl. I'm
mediately after their arrival at Ellis
island a charitable worker from the
Brooklyn Council OF Jewish Women
looks them up and takes them in
charge.
The newcomer is piloted to the
home of her brother, a poor tinsmith.
Not long afterward she is taken Ill
and dies, adjuring her brother with
her dying breath to care for her or
phaned little ones.
He promises to do so. But things
go badly with him and he, too, is
stricken with illness while at work
trying to provide for his little niece
and nephew. He is brought home, in
capacitated for further effort in their
behalf Friends then notify the Brook
lyn Federation of Jewish Charities. A
young lady investigator is at once sent
to the family's home She takes the
situation in hand without a moments
delay.
She gets an ambulance and has the
tinsmith hurried away to the Brooklyn
Jewish hospital There the physi
clans decide upon an immediate oper-
alton for appendicitis. The children
left uncared for by the illness Of their
uncle, are taken to the Brooklyn He
brew Orphan asylum.
The operation on the uncle is
made successfully and he is able to
leave the hospital after a short period
of convalescence. His first thought
is to visit his niece and nephew and
find out how they have been faring
at the orphan asylum. He calls there
and finds them well and contented.
Several years are then supposed to
elapse. The board of directors of the
Brooklyn Federation of Jewish Chair
ties assemble at the orphan asylum to
attend the commencement exercises Of
the institution. 1t happens that the
speaker chosen to believer the valedic-
tory address is the orphan boy who
was cared for at the asylum.
His address is called Charity" In
1t he extols the federation's work.
A philanthropist among his hearers,
deeply moved by the boys impas-
stoned words, calls next day at the
federation's Offices and learns all
about its work. While he is there
many applicants come with their sad
tales and obtain relief before his eyes.
So impressed is this man-typical of
The non-contributing class which the
federation is striving so hard to en-
list as its helpers-that he immedi-
ately donates a large sum OF money,
expressing the hope that his action
may serve as an example to others
who, like himself, need only to have
their interest aroused
