"DooR ANNIE" sighed mer

UJooh aHnlt, SRneu lntlnDer VI
Il the ladies' aid society. "She
does have such hard time getting
along. Her husband is out Of work
again, and her children have been sick.
They all look so pale and thin, as il
they didn't get enough to cat. That
little house they live In Is enough to
make anybody sick. It's so dark and
dingy, and they're. so cramped that they
don't get enough fresh air.
Poor Annie ~ echoed the other
members. Annie had been an object of
pity for several years. She never.
seemed to get along. although people
gave her clothes. sent her good things
10 eat. and occasionally slipped little
gift into her hand when they went TO
see her. She always seemed TO be hav-
ing bad luck. Her husband would lose
his position and then the children would
get sick. Everybody sympathized and
pitied her and tried to do everything TO
make her more comfortable. -
Then things changed. Some one found
a position for Annie's husband as care
taker Of building. Thefe was an
apartment reserved for the carctaker
and his family, and so Annie and the
children came along with him. Every
one felt that at last things would be
better for Annie. She would have room
enough to spread out little. she would
have plenty of fresh air. and her hus-
band would have steady work. The
little. dirty. dark. screwed up house
would be gone and forgotten.
Poor Annie" everybody said. AT
last she can have some kind Of life
A FrER about three months Of Annie $
n life in the new place discovery
was made. The people in the buiding
discovered that poor Annie had not
gained a thing by this move. and that
she probably would never gain anything
by any move. Instead of taking advan-
tage Of the chance for better living, she
went on in the same old way. The apart
ment soon became as dingy and dirty as
the old house had been. Instead of Civ
ing the children rooms Of their own so
that they could be comfortable and
have plenty of fresh air at night, Annie
had the. whole family sleeping in one
room. The children played about at
mig ght until half past 10 or II o'clock
and appeared late the next morning with
dark purplish circles under their eyes
Annic's husbdnd seemed content to dc
!, as little work as he could possibly dc
and keep his position. Annie herself
seemed to feel that life had failed her
Nobody gives mo anything any more,
she complained.
Sometimes when We are anxious t.
have charity organization help some
one we know who is in need, we think
that the organization is too business
