Ii you had never known a moth er's
tender care, a mother to tuck you in
at night and to do all the tender
things that only a mother can; if you
had never known fathers strong
devotional father, who would work
and suffer if need be, that his little
child might be sheltered; if you had
never been surrounded by the great
love that is due every child, and in
stead had been knocked about, here,
there and everywhere; if you had
never known the activity of a grow
ing child, and instead had lived all
your waking hours and most Of your
sleeping ones tied into high chair,
where your feet just dangled in the
air, and your body became twisted to
conform to the chair; iw you had no
nurse to dress you carefully, and in
stead had your tender flesh caught
through with a large safety pin;
could you still smile and smile? Could
you fold your hands and say "God
bless Nary" If you could you would
be able to demonstrate the heroic
patience and the sublime faith Of this
little three-year-old child, who has
justly been given the name of "Merry
Sunshine" by all connected with the
hospital where she now is.
Five months, ago this case was re-
ported to the State Board of Chair
ties, and the little child was placed
in the hospital for care, and if pos
sible, to make her whole. X-rays were
taken. She was examined by an en-
inent surgeon and the verdict was
that the child's body could never be
made straight. At first it was thought
that she could never walk. When II

board in order that her heels and
head would be lower than her body,

There is no financial provision made
