of the Childrens Home Society OF
Florida. in his report states that
total of 504 children have come un-
der the care and treatment OF the
society during the first six months
of the present year, $50 OF these De-
ing new cases. During that time
seventy-five children placed out du-
ring 1914 in good family homes
were visited to assure their proper

in these schools for another year
OF the 800 new children, thirty
three were placed out in permanent
homes for legal adoption; even
teen we're placed with relatives for
permanent care; thirty-seven chill
dren were referred to family board
ing homes. In most of these cases
the parents or relatives of the chils
dren paid a portion of the board,
and in some of the cases all OF the
board.
Ten children were placed in tenn
porary family boarding homes at
the entire expense of the society,
the circumstances being such that
it avs felt the children should not
be accepted legally.
Fifteen children were sent to
special industrial training schools
out of the state, most of these being
sent at the expense of relatives and
friends: and seven other children
were referred to schools out of the
state for industrial training, the
parents to pay the entire expense.

taken to the hospital for special
medical care and operations. Spec

older children which will enable
them to sustain themselves.
Ten young girls were referred t.
