WITHOUT FOOD,
FAMILY COMES
TO ASK RELIEF
Chfldrsm Begging for Something to
Eat Leads Mother TO Ask
for Help.

Nearly starved for three days.
mother and three little children,
aged /, 2 and years, appealed TO
the Rock Island Welfare associa-
ton yesterday for relief
Desperate after the children had
begged all day for food, the mother
was directed to the association
where she was supplied with gro
ceries. She told a pitiful story.
The family. she said, came to this
city three weeks ago. The father
had secured work at local hotel,
but was underbid by another man,
the woman says, and lost his job.
Since then he has been unable to
get work.
without a penny for food, the
family of children was left at
home, while the mother went out
looking for work, too. The case
was taken under advisement by the
welfare board, which met this noon
at the Rock Island Y. M. G. A. Aid
is expected from the parents and
grandfather of the woman.
The report of welfare cases ham
died by the association during
April, showed that there was a
large decrease over the previous
month. Mrs. Mary e. Morgan, Of
fee secretary, said that 1853 fam
lies, comprising SAG individuals.
were cared for in April, while the
March report showed that 271 fam
lilies with 966 individuals, on the
list.
Other figures show a similar re-
duction. In April 272 cartons of
groceries were distributed, while
Ala we're given in March and coal
orders last month dropped from SO
TO 10. Forty-two pairs OF shoes
were distributed in April and 40
In March. Permanent employment
was found for IS and temporary
work for seven. Fifteen widows
and five deserted wives were given
assistance in the last month.

Three Distinct Roles

Sessue Hayakawa achieves
remarkably artistic triumph by
playing three separate roles in
his latest re production The
VermiliOn Pencil" described as
being one of the most gigantic
thrill melodramas of the year.
In the early episodes of the pie
ture Hayakawa gives a vivid
Characterization Of young Vice
roy of ancient China and ap-
pears in several powerfully dra-
matte scenes. Later he is seen
as the CiccrOy grown old and
broken by remorse over having
condemned his beautiful young
wife to death by the tortures of
Ling Chee-the ancient Oriental
custom executing faithless wifes.
In still later scenes he appears
as Iii Chan. the son of the old
Viceroy who, when boy. had
been sent to America at the
death of his mother to be edu-
cated and returns to China as
full fiedged engineer. 1t requir-
ed months of hard study for Mr..
Hayakawa to fit himself for this
unusual undertaking with the re-
suit that his work is really re-
markable artistic accomplish
