church. 1t has been so planned for a
special need.
The new religious community has
been especially created to give an OPP
portunity for missionary service at
home, and to produce trained social
workers whose only task in life is to
help others.
Under the patronage of Archbishop
Patrick J. Hayes, of New York, the
Community of Professional Social
Workers has been established at 1928
West Seventy-first street. The COM
munity numbering ten unmarried
women bought the house some time
ago. Although the sisterhood has
been working for more than a year,
little has been publicly known TIL
recently about it's activities.
Its members wish no personal pub
licity, but they desire that the aims
OF the organization be known and
also would like to interest other
women in joining the service.
CHIEF WORK IN HOMES
This is so young an institution"
explained the soft-voiced young
woman who discussed the aimJ.
that IL would be unbecoming to
rush into print about our achieve
ments so far
But IL was learned that recon
struction and rehabilitation OF the
home is the great objective of all
the organizations efforts. The sis
tiers care for the poor and sick, both
young and old, from the baby who
needs a Iayette to the child who
should attend church and school
from the young couple in difficulties
of various sorts to the aged aud
helpless.
The home, as perfect social unit,
is the object toward which all the
social service of the sisterhood tends.
Homes form the nation" said one
member. "They make the church and
state. What we do for the homes is
done for the welfare of the whole
community. To teach good citizenship
and firm Americanism strengthens
religious, civic and political life.
Parish visitors, as members OF the
new community are known. devote
eight hours Of each day to the homes
of the most needy in each parish
Spiritual advice is offered as we'll as
attention to purely mundane neces-
sites.
The daily program is a rigid ard
austere one, but the workers are
happy and most jealous in their pro-
fession. A rising hour well before 8
o'clock and a retiring hour at $40.

TODDLER'S CHUBBY LEGS
FAIL TO SAVE BROTHER

LUMBERTON. n. j., June 5.-The
short. chubby legs of the two year
old son of Harry Yates, were not

gallant effort.
The boys had slipped away from
home and were playing along Ran
cocas Creek when Edward stubbed
his toe and feel into the creek. The
little brother ran as fast as his
short legs would take him to tell
men working in a field, but he was
not fast enough to bring aid in
time.
