SOCIETY OF NASHVILLE, ASK
ING FOR RELIEF.

The Tennessee Childrens Home
Society of Nashville is sending out
the following call for homes for chill
dren under seven years of age. The
letter follows:
Good homes wanted for children
under seven years of age. These are
bright and attractive boys and girls,
with bright futures. Many of these
unfortunate little ones have been be-
reft of both father and mother, and
we have now in the Home, quite a
large number of boy babies from three
to six months of age. We are not
looking for homes of wealth, but
homes in which there is a possibility
of home life and education.
IF you have not little ones in your
home, would you not take one of these
little ones on trial, as that is the only
method by which this Society places
children. We are just as anxious that
the home is satisfied with the child
as the child is satisfied with the home
I'VE have a number of homes which
have been made happy by taking into
it one of our babies. If you would like
to share your home with one of these
little ones, you may write B. G. Regen,
