Mooseheart Day To Be Observed
 Here Sat. Nighi

Moose Heart Day will be. celebrat- cd Saturday, october 27, at the Moose Lodge rooms, with the Loyal Order of Moose and the Legion Of the Moose assisting the Women of the Moose in making this evening one long to be remembered by the children of the local members.
 Every effort is being made to plan Q full program of entertainment for Moose members, their families and their friends.
 Every year Moose Heart Day is celebrated by Moose members ev- erywhere as a memento to the achievements of the Order, and as a tribute to the many children living lat Moose Heart, Ill, who are being fed, clothed, sheltered and educated there.
 Mcose members are invited to participate in the celebration to- gether with their children, and to keep the date, oct. 27, in mind.
 Part of the record of achievement of which the Order can well be proud is that 5000 children have been graduated from Moose Heart, and since graduation have made in- diyidual records as worthwhile cit izens and members of society, as testified by the fact that not one of them has been convicted of felony Without the care and train ing afforded them at Moozeheart, some Of the records might have been different, since many were orphans who would otherwise have been left to drift alone, homeless and friend less.
 The widow of a member of the Moose Lodge. left alone with child len to support. may. if she desires, take them to Nfoossheart where she can be with them during the period of their education. Many trades are taught the children, and they are educated along any line they desire.
