200 HOMES MADE SAD
 DURING EPIDEMIC
Charity Organization Will Place
 Thanksgiving Donations

At a, request from the state board of health. the New Britain Charity organization volunteered to make an extensive survey of New Britain where death occurred during the re- cent influenza epidemic. This survey is to ascertain the number of orphans requiring immediate care, the work of visiting every family where a mar ried adult has died, being done by the Charity organization. The agents Of the Charity organization are assisted by the Welfare Workers of the city, members of the Social Workers con- ference. These visits at the homes number about 200. Tn some in
 stances the children are grown up; in a few cases there are no children, but in the majority of families the number of children range from one to seven or eight years.
 Occasionally temporary arrange ments have been made either with neighbors. older brothers or sisters, or other relatives. Several of the fathers are already married again to provide a mother for the little Chil
 dren Grandparents and aunts have also come forward to assist in the readjustment of the home conditions. Where there is no one to care for the motherless children it has. been possible to admit a very limited num- Der to the local orphanages, but it is in the homes where the father is gone that the widow with her large family of little ones all of school age or under finds the burden the heaviest
 In so many of these homes there is no income whatever, and the slight amount of insurance, if any, has been already used for necessary expenses Some of those widows will necessarily have to he widows will necessarily have to he supported by the city. Tn a large number of these families the New Britain Charity organization is giving temporary aid until readjustments can be made and the mother, possi-
 bly, go to work. When the mother with her little family has been so recently bereft of husband and father, when there is no income and no relief to look forward to for several years, when she herself is still frail and convalcscing and the chi1- dren the same, she can find very l little for which to be thankful at this | season when most of us are rejoicing. Here is an opportunity for the 1 generous citizens of New Britain to l furnish a little cheer in many of these l darkened homes, on our coming hOli- l day of Thanksgiving. A basket con- l taining an unexpected dinner Or one 1 filled with fruit to tempt the capacities would be the means of letting in a
 little joy and sunshine.
 This organization knows just cx-
 actly where to place your gift,
 whether it be money or food, and will very gladly furnish any one with one 1 or more families, should you care to 1 place your gift directly. Why not | show your joy and thankfulness by 1 passing some of it on to others So
 much less fortunate? Gifts will be 1 received at the Charity organization l office, 103 West Main street

THE AGED WILL BE CARED FOR

Under our present system, it is
commendable that private and public
charity has instituted 80 many homes
for the aged and so many hospitals
for the sick and injured; and yet,
with all provision, there is much hui
initiation and suffering among the
afflicted which ought not to exist.
How many aged men and women
there are who are working like slaves
and using the last remnants of their
strength to gain d livelihood, just be-
cause they have no other means Of
support This condition reveals to
us one of the most barbarous aspects
Of our present civilization. Also
think of the number Of aged and in
firm that are unwelcome at.the home
of son-in-law Or d daughter-in-laW,
but who prefer to suffer this cnbar-
rassment rather than to go to the
aims house. Why is there such a
.sfead of the aTns-house?
Anyone who has investigated this
matter can answer this question. 1t
is indeed pitiful to see how some Of
these old people are treated just be-
cause there are not enough attend
ants. to take care of them properly
end in some cases, because there is
a beastly heart at the head of the
institution.
just as pitiable is the condition Of
the unfortunates in affliction-
those who are permanently crippled,
the blind, the deaf, the sick, and ev-
cry other such class of human beings.
Nothing but words Of commenda-
tion should be spoken Of the efforts
that have been put forth by the State
to alleviate the sufferings and i'm
prove the conditions Of these afflicted
classes.
But the time will never come when
man viii be punished for working.
So that If a person who is over go
years of age prefers to work as a
matter of pleasure, there will be no
objections offered, and he will always
live in the happy thought that when
he cares no more to work, or is I'M
able to work, there will be ample
provisions for his support and COM
fort. BROWN EYES"
