Charge Of Society's Work

Mrs. Alfred J. Brosseau. whose
picture appears above. is treasurer
general of the d. A. R., a resident
OF New York city, and the head Of
the Ellis Island work for the 90.
ciety. Her Intense interest in the
work which she Is carrying on, led
her to write an article in which
she pleads for the immigrant. and
sets forth some Of the difficulties
with which he has to contend upon
reaching the United States shore.
Excerpts follow:
THE work of the immigration
aid committee of the d. A. r. on
Ellis Island is to provide occupation
for the foreign women and relieve
the intense mental strain which
naturally follows q period Of III.
definite detention. Ignorance Of our
language and of the reasons for be-
ing detained makes them suspicious.
restless and unhappy"
The Psychology Of our effort ID
that II the hands are occupied the
mind is naturally more tranquil.
Now the visitor in detention sees
the women grouped about working,
resembling 40 many ladies' aid So
cieties. A window where the work
10 handed out has been named '"The
Window of Hope" because 1t brings
the women SO much relief to get
it."
The Government officials are
kind. but they are too busy to lend
the helping hand these immigrants
need. so IL we stretch out to them
a helping hand we may make them
feel that someone cares for them
In a strange land and justify our
own excuse for existing at the
gateway to a new life."

Magellanic Cloud Leaving Planetary
Hundred Miles Per Second.

famous, as well as the most enig.
NAUTICAL objects In the Southern
sky, sharing the celebrity OF the
constellation Southern Cross,
which, like them, Immediately
drew the eyes of the early ex-
plorers Of the South Seas. Ap.
parent1y the two clouds are sim
liar in structure, and Doctor Shap-
ley thinks that once they were IN
the Milky Way, when they may
have resembled some Of the cloud
like clusters that give 30 nnueh
splendor to the galactic band In
the constellation Sagittarius and
Scutum Sobieskii.
And here comes a thrilling touch
connecting the history Of those
wonderful objects with that Of
our little earth, for the speed with
which the small Magellanic cloud
Is receding from the Milky Way
is not less than a hundred miles
per second, carrying 1t over seven
teen thousand million miles In q
year, so that, as Doctor Shapley
remarks, 1t must have been in the
Milky Way at a time less remote
than the Paleozoic era Of geolo-
gists. If there had been astrun-
orners on earth in those early ages,
instead Of only beasts, we might
have had a complete history of
the secession of the Magellanic
Clouds, but, unfortunately, there
were no comprehending brains be-
hind the eyes that stolidly saw
without-seeing the beginning of
that immense exile.

ONCE-OV ERS
KNOW WHEN TO REFUSE AND Do IT.
Why promise 50 much that you cannot fulfill

Why promise so much that you cannot fulfil9
What is gained by promises to do certain things which
you find time to do and which might better be turned
down at the START
not keep your engagements or your promises
But every time you promise certain thing you should
remember that others make their plans accordingly and
when you break your word means change of plan for
others besides yourself To this is often positive
inconvenience, not to say embarrassment.
You would better admit that it weaknessthis prom
ising what you cannot do intend to carry out
It is too hard for you to say, "No."
You cannot bear to hear protest when you refuse
comply and you give irresponsible consent and fall
in greater disfavor than if you had refused.
For protest is forgotten both by the who makes
and the one who receives it, 1t is not an active but
passive thing in comparison to the sort Of feeling you will
set up against you do not curb your impulse to promise
what you cannot do not intend to fulfil.
