INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC LEAVES MANY
 CONNECTICUT CHILDREN HOMELESS

come to the Children's Aid for care. During the year just past, under fair ly normal conditions, sos children have come to the attention of the society. The only places to which these children may go, are the home of Connecticuts citizens for the socie- ty maintains no institution outside of the Home for Crippled Children at Newington. It believes that the nor nal child can best be cared for in private home where there are the ad- vantages of family life such as it should have had with it's own par ents. At present, the society is car ing for over two hundred children in this way. In order to furnish this type of care, an appeal must be made to the child loving people of Con- necticut to open their doors
 Every institution is over-crowded and most are closed to new corners because of the epidemic. And there are at least ten lovely, cuddley babies of year or under, who are desper- ately in need of homes For instance, i a worried anxious woman came into the office a few days ago carrying the 1 1 babyhood that ever was. The woman was Teddy's aunt, and Just three days before she had been summoned by | telegram from her work at a naval hospital to a town in the southern part of the state, to find her widowed sister dead, and Teddy absolutely alone in the world except for her .. Now her furlough was almost over, and her repeated visits to institutions throughout the state had been in vain. In desperation, late in the af- ternoon, she came to the Children's Aid saying that she must return tC her work in the morning and there was no place for Teddy. It was found upon a doctors examination that he had a very slight attack of influenza and was taken to the hospital. Now he is entirely recovered, and for many days, has been waiting for new mother,-some woman who will love him as he deserves and give him the care that is his right, in return fol the board which the ChiIdren's Ait will pay.
 Teddy is only one. There are st many others who need a mother jus now!
 Are there not many women in tht state lonely, perhaps, for their ow1 youngsters who have all grown III and left home, some of them, perhaps ! to go into the service of their coun
 try? Of others who have known tn, keenness of loss in their own or ;
 friends home, and for that reaso1
 can appreciate the need of thes
 youngsters?
 The Connecticut ChiIdrens AiC Society, Brown-Thomson Building
 Hartford, will be glad to hear iron anyone who would consider takint one of these little ones.

sos children,-for this large mum Der of youngsters, every one different, every one a problem in itself the Children's Aid Society has been ap- pealed to during this last year, be- cause of illness or death in the fam fly; because of immortality, domestic trouble, intoxication, or other causes
 Occasionally there come to the society the mother with her baby, who cannot bear to think of parting from the little fellow but who must work to support him and herself. If 1t seems best, the society tries to find a home where they may be together, the mother assisting with general | housework, or as a mothers helper. Besides providing a home for mother and child, this often-in these days of scarcity of domestic service, solves the problem for the woman who can not find a maid.
 In every case the Childrens Aid Society, after carefully talking the matter over with the parent and with others most interested, has tried to make the plan that is to the greatest Advantage not only of the children, but to the troubled mother or father Sometimes some other agency can help in the particularly emergency presented, and the matter Is turned over to them; sometimes just kindly advice and direction will straighter out the tangle; but very often the children for whom the appeal is ma dc genuinely need the home and moth. CTS care which for some reason theil own people cannot give. These youngsters are placed in carefully SC lected family homes where they may have the individual care and atten tion that are their right and a neces sity to their proper development Many splendid homes are now oper to these children but just now tn, demand for homes is greater than thu supply owing to the tremendous pres sure which the present epidemic ii bringing to beer.
 The following is from a letter re gently received by the Connection Children's Aid Society:
 have been ill for few weeks and have thought of so many littI ones left without parents, and if vol nave small baby, as young as DOS sible, will you let me know?"
 There ought to be fifty such let ters rather than one, for during +b last several weeks many. man, youngsters, from the twins. three dav old to Concetta, eight years old. hav

STRIKING CAR MEN IN CLEVELAND TO. RETURN TO WORK Will Lift Tie Up of Trolleys Probably Return to Work
 This Afternoon. MAKE AGREEMENT WITH COMPANY Succeed in Getting the Dis
 charge of the Women
 Workers.

Cleveland, Dec. 5-The 2,400 street car men who went on strike last Tues day because of the employment of wo- men conductors and resulting in a complete tie up of trolleys, probably will return to work late this after noon. The strikers will assemble this afternoon to vote on terms that their union leaders have accepted for them.
 Though there may be some hitch in the settlement at the last moment, both sides believe that the trouble is ended. The women conductors are to be eliminated from the street car ser vice not later than March l. That is the proposition union leaders will en- dorse to the strikers and it was evolv- ed at a conference of all interested parties in the mayors office today.
 An alternative proposition that grew out of the all night city council meet ing that also will go before the strik- CTS, but without endorsement of the union leaders, is a council resolution putting the city behind a pledge to the car men that if they would return imm ediately to work the city would aim to secure the removal of the wo- men conductors not later than Jan- uary 3.
 An agreement was reached this morning whereby W. D. Mahon, president of the International Union | of Street Car Employees and the ex- ecutives of the Cleveland union, will recommend to the men that they vote on returning to work. This meeting of men is to be held later | this morning
 The agreement that may mean the | calling off of the strike was reached after the city council had adopted a resolution pledging itself to soc that the men were given the Square dear' promised by John J. Stanley
 president of the Cleveland Railwa. | Co.,, under the recommendation O the war labor board that women be discharged by January 3. MT. Stanley agreed to abide by the reso | tuition.
 The representatives of the wome1 conductors also agreed to abide by any decision with the men MT. Stan
