 Among the children for whom this valuable assistance is requested are those who are orphans. those whose parents are drunkards. chill dren who live in unbelieya bly cramped quarters, children who have a sick mother or father and cannot be cared for. children who are forced to work hard at home, EHoSt Nlo l1d' llldtltuudt6 SIGe DlnR or food. children whose families have been dispossessed or burned out, boys and girls who have never had real breath of fresh air or seen the beauties of nature in short. those who have little pleasure or chance in life and very narrow horizons.
