FEDERATION GOES
ON MODERN LINES
Every Charitable Organization
in Association Does Some
Certain Work.

The lines along which the Fedora
ton for Social Service works are in
accordance with the objects and ac-
tivities of modern philanthrOphy.
This realizes that very many persons
are seriously handicapped in the race
of life. that poverty. disease and cir
cumstances beyond their control pre-
vent thousands from the pursuit of
happiness besides curtailing their
liberty of action, and not infrequent-
~, prematurely depriving them Of
life. But with the recognition of these
deplorable evils. modern philanthro-
pists seek a remedy. They would not
only relieve immediate distress. but
so far as possible. would remove the
cause and prevent its recurrence.
Hence they look 20 the Improvement
Of the homes of the poor the train
ing of children, 10 the care Of health,
10 the furnishing of conference.-the
short they endeavor 10 help the un
fortunate help themselves. This as
sistance is manifested in various ac-
tivities, such as prison reforms, the
Salvation Army. leagues TO guard
against disease, hospitals for the sick.
orphan asylums, children dispensar-
les of pure food and medicines. play
ground associations, visiting nurses.
societies to rescue the fallen and
guard the tempted and even TO pro-
tect dumb brutes from cruelty, Asso-
ciated charities. and Young Women's
and Young Mems Christian associa-
tons
These are the activities carried on
by the Is organizations in this city CO.
operating under the name of the Fed
Grafton for Social Service in South
Bend. Every philanthropic person in
the city who cherishes these ideals of
service should aid in practically real
ling them by contributing according
10 his ability 10 the funds of the fed
Grafton. An opportunity for such
contributions is furnished during the
Good Will week campaign now in
progress.

Lieut. William Thaw. who will also

Young Reynolds was closely as

holds several records for altitude
and speed flights MacGordOn en-

turned to America 10 aid the Cur

Lieut.. Thaw who will leave with
Reynolds, won his title on the west
ern front in France. At the out
break of the war he rendered his
services to the French government
but was not accepted as the aviation
regulations at that time forbade
foreigners entering that branch of
the service. He then enlisted as a
private soldier but when the restric-
tons were removed by the govern
nent he was transferred TO the fly
ing squadron and won recognition
through active service.
Mrs. Reynolds says that her son
holds the same opinion upon the
subject Of Americans enlisting in
the French army and has often
spoken Of the great dangers to the
United States arising from a posi-
lie invasion Of this country by Ger
many If she is victorious in the
war.

siderable length of time before

tgation found her wrapped in
