years the Children's Aid society af
New York Is unable to furnish enough
boys to families who want either to
adopt them or care for them until the
boys become Of age. The reason for
this is the campaign for military pre-
paredness and the great demand for
workers in war munition factories.
Almost every day letters come to
the society headquarters asking for
boys who have been trained at its farm
school.
Last month Al of the society's boys,
sixteen to twenty-one years old, en-
listed in the army and navy service
for boys. The munition factories take
a large number of the older boys.
