RELIEF BODY HELPS
MANY OF C|TY'S POOR
Youngster Will Go to School as,
Result of Committees Splendid
Work

There is one little boy in this city
who will have occasion to remember
the Home and War Relief committee
this winter.
His parents are suffering because of
the lack of work throughout the coun-
try and new clothes are unknown to
the family just now. The little fellow
was to enter school in February, but
his mamma didn't have sufficient
clothing for him to be out this cold
weather, so had about decided not to
send him. She was doing some sew
ing for the Home and War Relief
committee, and when one of the wo-
men in charge of the Home depart
ment questioned her about her fam
lily. told how her little boy must give
up school this winter.
One of the committee is the wife of
a local merchant. She got busy on
the telephone and before night that
little chap was outftted from head
to foot with clothes which will see
him through this and possibly another
winter, If he doesn't outgrow them.
There were many families through
out the city which were given substan-
tial aid through the relief committees

given work, and yesterday was paid

She was not there! He hurried out

across the station platform to the bull

at 4:1O. An express was due ut 420.
June Warner was helpless and be-
wildered. She had no money. no
friends. She could not even telegraph.
Why had she done this foolish thing?
Her dream. She saw herself again
standing in the posture of piteouS
beggar and accepting Ned's gifts. She
saw Ned tipping the white toothed por-
ter a dollar and then. with the same
jovial generosity, handing her thirty.
The touch of that money still burned
her fingers. Foolish as her revulsion
might be, it was keen and real never
theless, and until she had thrashed
out this question with the woman
which had suddenly grown up in her
she could not make of her marriage
with Ned the sacred relationship which
she had held as her ideal. The black
Vandyked man passed quite near her,
gazing at her with Il smile. She walk

Where should she go? Home? She
