Care of Children

"The State of Maine doesn't pro-
pose that any more Of its children
than can possibly be helped shall be
brought up and classed as paupers,"
said Sec. James F. Bagley Of the
State Board Of Charities and Cor
rections and of the Board of Chill
dren's Guardians.
THE Governor and Council has ar
ranged with the board that IL any
children are found. whose parents do
not have a residence in this State,
that they shall be turned over to the
board for care and education, away
from their parents, the expense to be
provided for from the appropriation
for dependent children and not from
the States appropriation for paupers.
Such children have necessarily
heretofore been supported from the
pauper fund, some even being cared
for by some town with which ar
rangements were made, the town
which was liable for their support
having no facilities for their care.
This new arrangement will obyiate
the charge Of pauperism against any
unfortunate little one and will also
give that child better care and edu-
cation.
I'VE had already taken over some
IS or 40 Of such special cases before
the beginning Of this year when the
new arrangement went into effect
and on Jan. we took over 81 others,
SO that all the children of that class
OF which we are informed are in good
hands,"

BILLIE BURKEIN

Billie Burke is capable OF exciting
sympathy almost any time. when she
droops the corners Of her adorable
mouth and those dimples seem on
the point Of vanishing. In Wanted

through is enough to excite sympa-

Burke in this scene.
Not that the pretty star insists
upon performing her additions dur

latest picture, "Wanted-A Husband"
requires her to SILVER and dance I'M
der an ice-cold shower bath, and
Miss Burke is an ardent advocate of
realism. Moreover, she insisted that
the water be really cold, and grim
aces she makes on the screen are
heartfelt
It is interesting to note, too, that
Miss Burke also dons the boxing
gloves in this picture and gives a
good account Of herself.
Another mighty good Offering on

Florence Reed in "Her Came" a
