Eve are not lonely for people but lonely for ami
mails they answered. In South Africa one OF their
principal pastimes had been to trek through the
woods with their dogs. The Horners remained al
Ellis island for several weeks after they had been
admitted to the country; then Doctor Howe took
them up 10 n summer home he has In the woods In
Westchester county.
There they have lived all winter enjoying life In
the open country. especially when snow was on the
ground and the deer tracks could be followed
through the woods. The two younger girls possess
a knowledge Of woodcraft which Doctor Howe says
is really amazing, and they have no fear Of getting
lost In the woods They walk for miles In which
direction their fancy takes them, always find
ing their way back home by the same sort of In
stnct as that by which an Indian Is guided,
The interest shown by Doctor Howe in this par
ticnar case was in keeping with his general policy
Of SO administering the affairs Of Ellis island that
those who come TO this country from other lands
with the intention Of making a new home for them
selves will be treated with as much kindness and
consideration as the enforcement of the exclusion

much TO brighten the lives OF those who have been
detained on the island for months. Last summer to
relieve the situation Fairgrounds were opened on
the island. and mothers and children were per
mitted TO play on the lawns. The first day they
were released from the station they rolled upon the

Late one afternoon last October Doctor Howe

an ol neat mothcrly appearance with two pretty
h't'e girls Guiding up TO her. sitting in the deten.
hon room. As the hour was late ana he thought
they were visitors Doctor Howe inquired what they
were waiting for and lf he could do ANYTHING for
them
The woman explained that she was British and
with her children had been ordered deported. They
had arrived from Great Britain about month be-
fore, hui had no friends In this country and no
money and, therefore. had not been allowed TO
enter.
The healthy appearance of the two children their
pretty faces and their evident good breeding won
over the commissioner on the spot. and he imned-
ately interested himself In their case.
The woman's name was Mrs. RITA Horner and
her story was this: when the war broke out she
was living with her family. which, besides her hus
band, consisted Of two sons and three daughters,
on dairy farm some miles out of Capetown South
Africa, The country about them was rugged and
wild and the girls. despite their young years. were
forced to walk many miles every day TO attend
school. The sons who were older helped TO work
the farm.
The husband and the two boys along with most
OF the ahlehodled men In that section enlisted in

with her three danghters-una, fifteen years Piri

had not been In England long when Mrs. Horner
decided TO come to America"
On hearing Mrs. Horners story Doctor Howe

He explained that these people we're all strong
and healthy, that the children were beautiful and
that there was no danger Of them becoming pub.
lie charge. Furthermore he announced his willing
ness to be responsible for them. and few days
after the machinery had been set In motion word
came back from Washington that Mrs Horner and
her children would be released In his custody.
Meantime the family had made friends with near
u everybody on the island. The watchman and
guards petted the children and gave them many
little presents. The attendants did all they could
to make them comfortable.
Despite these attentions the children sometimes

1t has been understood here for sew

not return such an answer that would
