Adoption of French Family, and of
French Baby By Mrs. Smiths
Auxiliary
The adoption of a French family
by the Young Ladies' Auxiliary, and
of a French baby is the latest work
taken up by this band of capable
girls.
The cost of the adoption sof the
family is $3.50 a year. This sum will
put an otherwise destitute family in
q position where it can become self
sustaining
The baby will mean that these
girls will have to send So month to
France through the Red Cross Refu-
gee Relief Department. There are
thousands of babies that will die from
exposure and hanger in France and
Belgium this winter unless the Amer
leans take pity upon them.
