Not all families respond this read

burdens and discouragements haye
piled so high that ambition il lost
among the older folk, who go about
their work in a dazed and perfunct-
tory fashion.
"Often in those homes we can. by
lending slight help. do much good. 1
remember one such family, where
the father was at the workhouse ond
the mother was suffering from tuber-
culosis. Four children, from two to

with the children around a feeble

with contributions from some of
our directors We were able to do
much toward helping that family.

an excretory organ wes new to them.
We explained to the mother that
they were putting too great a strain

mother of many of the burdens OF
household work.
1T is easy to appeal to the pride
of many of the children, especially
the girls. Ask them whether they do
not want to grow up to be good
looking women. Tell them that they
cannot do so unless they care for
their teeth, and that they will not
look well unless they are neatly
dressed.
