EVANSVILLE 2, Ind, Dec. 22.-Van-

month through the mothers compensa-
tion act, by which Indiana judges may
give county fina Incial aid to needy
mothers, per1nittin g them to keep their
children at home instead of commit
ting them to orpha pa ges. according to
Judge Elmer Q. Lot>hyear of the Van

mitted to remain at no me at cost OF
SAB a week as eompaI ed with $S4-5O

During the last year" said Judge
Iockyear, 1--WE began a campaign OF
publicity IN regard to our orphans
home and found number of persons
willing to take children into their
homes under supervision of my court.
A number have adopted children.
Mothers of IS children are receiving
aid through this court so tn ey will not
be obliged to place their children in
the orphans home.
s@The cost of lkeeping the children in
the orphans home is more than twice
as much as that of having them kept
at home with their mothers At the
orphans home each child costs IS
cents a day, or S5.S5 a weel7. The al
lowance for the children at home with
their mother is $3.50 a week.
There have been a few cases that
our critics have cal led to our atten-
ton where the children are not in as
good a home as the orphans home.
This may be true in some cases, but

in poor home with mother and broth
