in the Saxony district, the children of
parents who work in factories and mills
are suffering because of lack of nourish-
ing food. Some OF them have never
tasted milk, many of them have been fed
only on a watery, potato diet. Their
food has not contained lime or mineral
salts, therefore, thier bones are not
strong, and unless help can come to them
in very short time, they ar doomed to
lives Of misery. Many OF them are al
already crippled for life, yet extra food
at this time means that they will be
stronger and better than if food does not
come to them.
The picture shows the effect OF under
nourishment, which so often results in
ricketts,. The large, distended abdomen,
swollen joints, shriveled limbs and arms,
pulled and flushed faces, are typical il
all such cases.
Entered Germany Early.
The representatives Of the American
Friends Service Committee entered Ger
many within thre weeks after the signing
of the Armistice in 1918. They went
because they felt the great need for work
of reconciliation.
Herbert Hoover recognized the dis
interested and non olitical character OF
the Quakers, and when he looked about
for group to head up the relief work in
Germany, he asked the American Friends
Service Committee to take charge OF it.
The way, therefore, is open for every
one who is interested in relief work for
Germany to contribute to the great need.
There is no question Of prof. ermanism.
The Quakers are interested only in help
ing those who suffer and no one who is
working directly through their com
Imitteee need fear criticism. Questions
are never asked concerning race, color
or creed.
Food Transported Free.
According to arrange nents with federal
authorities, all food purchased by the
Service Committee is transported free to
Germany. The Quakers bear all ex-
penses both in the United, States and
Germany. Therefore, every dollar do
mated to the work is used to buy food for
the suffering children. However, this
arrangement continues only until July
! i Of this year. It takes at least five
weeks to get. food ordered and shipped
to Germany. Therefore, contributions
must be sent at once to the American
Friends Service Committee, 2 South
Twelfth street, Philadelphia, Pa, or t.
the local organization. Mrs. Meta Crone
! of this city is treasurer Of the Relic
Committee for New Ulm and vicinity.
Official receipts are sent for all none.

are published in the daily papers il
