two hundred boys and girls rescued

neglect, sheltered by the society
pending adjustment of their trou-

has meant almost nothing to these
little Ones" said Mr.. CRANE. "Few
of them have either father or
mother; their homes have been cold
and sordid, and many of them will
carry all their lives scars from the
cruel and inhuman treatment they
have suffered. They cannot know
the JOY, on a Christmas morning, of
rushing breathless in nightclothes to
see the wondrous gifts left in their
stockings by loving Santa Claus"

The College
Girls

During the coal crisis in Decem-
Der Governor McKelvie Of Nebras ska
made an appeal to the people of his
state to mine coal in nearby states
to increase production. Among the
volunteers were two young women
students Of the state university, who
offered to accompany the men as
cooks on any coal-digging expedition
they might be called upon to make.
Women of all colleges have come
to the fore both through their
alumn@ organizations and through
their individual enterprise. 1t is
no longer taken for granted that the
graduate Of woman's college was
born wearing horn-rimmed glasses
and with a teachers ruler in her
hand. Perhaps the largest amount
Of real war work done by women
was that accomplished in all lines
Of service by college women. They
were the best equipped and it was
no more than should have been ex-
pected of them that they should have
made their splendid contribution.
Nevertheless, credit is due them for
living up. to what was expected of
them.

increase strikes may occur similar to
recent ones in Chicago and New York.

The treaty was signed with a simplici-
