about the subject. the day may mark the beginning
Of tremendous progress in child care.
owen r. Lovejoy writing in The Survey sug-

is the key to the social barn door. So long as we
neglect the child and devote our money, our laws

door after the initial loss has been suffered. Oh
but that does not lessen the actual loss.
Mr.. Lovejoy writes: There is no more funua-
mental line OF social endeayOr than the development
Of the child. There Is direct medium for
social betterment than the child. If we can make
all children healthy, well-educated and capable.
how many social ills will drop of the map? How
many lines of RELIEF will become needless? But if
neglect the child today, how much more trouble
are we storing up for ourselves for the future?
we must remind ourselves that it is not merely
immediate aid a given child that we are urging.
but aid the future Of the whole country through

This is one important motive in child welfare

motive. But for many other warm-hearted workers
little children the desire TO give them
fair chance at life and happiness are additional
calls to service.

More Truth
Than Poetry
By JAMES ]. MONTAGUE
AN OPEN WINTER.

Throughout my youth, often used
to wonder
What made the feathered choris-
ters appear
Before the SHOWS were gone, and
how in thunder
The little rascals knew that
spring was near.
The flowers-not the blossoms Of
the florist
Though locked in winters grip
was all the land,
Would thrust their little heads up
in the forest
With prescience that / could not
understand.
In vain I asked my elders for the
reason;
They either had to say they didn't
know
Or lameIy told me that the spring
tide season,
Through some queer magic made
the flowers grow.
I wonder If some kindly little fairy,
For fear the flowers too long in
bed should stay.
Send out the birds week ahead
To carry
The message that the spring was
on the way.
But yesterday. with winter breezes
singing
Ny cheek-and long before the
spring is due
I heard a little hoarse-vOiced robin
singing.
And pausing now and then to cry
"KerChoO!"
And crocus shoots. a hooking sun
invited
To spring up prematurely from
their bed.
Are laying on the meadow, brown
and blighted-
And also. 1 may mentiOn-very
dead.
A little sun--a little warmth-had
tricked en-:
Alas. they knew no more than
human folks.
| As easily as l do they fell victim
To one OF Natures rather clumsy
jokes.
/ They both were hoodwinked by &
freakish season;
They have no more prophetic gift
than men.
And no more intellect-and that,
! the reason
I'll never trust a bird or flower
again.
