BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE PAGE 5 A FOSTER PARENTS WANTED FOR SIXTY THOUSAND WAR ORPHANS IN FRANCE War orphans and asurances of support for another two years of the 115,000! children already adopted by Americans! is the task before the Society of the Fatherless Children of France, accord- ing to Mrs, Walter Brewster of Chica- go, president of the national society, who has recently returned from France, Mrs, Brewster's letter follows : HELP NEEDED BADLY. “There never was a_ time,” Mrs. Brewster wrote, “when moral and phys- ical help could count so much when a little money and sympathy would go so far toward comforting a tired, dis- - couraged nation which, after five years of struggle, sees ahead years more of struggle and readjustment, ' “I wish all of our chairmen could vis- it the Paris office and so realize the complications and small difficulties that go with the assignment of individ- ual children to individual adopters, They would then, I am sure, be more patient when letters fail to arrive, payments seem less prompt than they should be and little girls of 10 turn out to be boyy of 5. For months in the days of air raids the records were pack- ed ready to be taken to a place of safe- ty, but the staff was there in spite of the danger. Thousands of children have been evacuated, moved from place to place and are now being repatriated Three thousand applications a month fre now coming in for help and all » must be given attention. SEES MANY OF CHILDREN. “In Paris,” Mrs, Brewster continued, “several fetes were organized that I might see the children whom we have helped. In one of the poorest districts of Paris the children gave a matinee which was attended by 2,000 and the interest and gratitude displayed toward the American visitors was touching. “In another section the children planned a fete. All assembled groups according to the states in which their foster parents Jive. At the head of each group was an American flag. As tey passed they were given rolls made from American flour by myself and Mme. Jusserand. “I visited many of our children,” Mrs. Brewster continued, “and in many cases Was startled by the extreme cases of poverty. A mother and three chil- dren in one tiny room with just space enough for a bed, a chair and a chest of drawers, Another tiny apartment of two rooms was filled to overflowing with a mother and her four children, the grandmother and two other grand- children whose mother was dead.Some of the children are now being housed in workmen's apaytments, new sanitary buildings which are being erected all over Paris and which accept as tenants no family with less than four children. The apartments are very small but con- venient and airy and are built around a green courtyard, LITTLE MONEY GOES FAR. “When 1 first began to visit these chil- dren I came to realize what the smal! sum of $36.50, means, even in these at- ter the war days, I can be counted up- on to arrive at a given time and to provide some absolutely necessary thing, strengthening food, shoes that the child may go to school, the little outfit that is essential if the child of 13 or 14 is to begin an apprenticeship, I realized for the first time, too,” Mrs. Brewster goes: on, “what this distant American friend meant, Every postal card is treasured by the children. One of the war widows who worked at the general headquarters told how her little girl worried because ner ‘matrains’ had never written, fearing tha. “e might | have said something in her little notes to displease her. The mothers count on and are grateful for the money,” she said. “but the children care more for the news and attentions from a friend in a far away land. “I talked several times with Marshal Joffre, who expressed a deep interest in the work, and had a pleasant visit with Mme. Poincare, who was most ap- preciative of the work being done, but nothing, I think was more pathetic than the gratitude of the little ones themselves, “One child I talked with was a little girl of about 11 years in a forlorn little town in the northern part of France. We were taking moving pic- tures of the group of children and I asked her to help me call them because I was an American and wanted the pic- ture to take home with me. She looked up at me and without a moment’s hesi- tation said:: ‘Ah madame, it is thanks to America we have not died of hun- ger.’ “That is what they think of us and what we have done,” Mrs. Brewster gaid. “There remains a great task for us to do, We cannot bring our work to a triumphant conclusion unless all the llittle children who look to us for help receive it promptly. The French are a stricken people tired out and dis- couraged. If we desert them now their burden will be an extremely hard one to bear.” SELECTION AND CARE OF TEXTILES NEW PUBLICATION The selection of cloth in these days when so many fabrics gre.used and so many forms of substitution pre- vail, are becoming more difficult. In the olden days, the fabrics were made in the home from fibers produced on the farm. Today when the woman goes shopping she finds displayed on the shelves in’ the. drygoods store fabrics. from every corner of the globe, To be able to select from these the ones that will meet the purpose in mind, the one that will give the best satisfaction, becomes quite a provlem. To help answer this ques- tion’ a’ publication entitled “Seleciion and Care of Textiles” has been pub- lished by the extension division of the North: Dakota Agricultural Col- lege. The authors are Inez S. Wilson and Ada G. Meadows, specialists in clothing in the North Dakota Agri. cultural college. The circular takes up the different fibers from which cloth is made, as wool, cotton, linen| o~ and silk, both real and artifictal. The characteristics of each one of these fibers is given, as well as illustra- tions. Tests are given which can be made in the home which will help in ‘HUMPHREYS’ ‘The fu'l Ist of Dr. Humphreys’ Remedies for §ntcrnal ond external use, meets the necds of families for near!y every ailment from Infancy to.old age—described in Dr. Humphreys’ Manual mailed free.

By applying these tests one may determine whether the fabric is wool or cotton. Weighted silk, which may have. been treated with metals, giving it weigut, also gives it the ap- pearance of being a high-class article when: in reality: it is in many cases hardly well worth making up, as it is brittle and will very soon crack where it.is falded, By making. a sim- ple test which is indicated in the cir- cular, on can determine with a grea! deal of accuracy whether the silk has been loaded wth these metals or not. There are a great many ways in which these different fibers can be woven. This is also taken up. A study of this little eight-page circular, with its illustrations, gives one a pret- ty good idea of the fibres of which cloths are made, as well as a knowl- edge of how to make a test for them and something as to their special adaptation.

Athens.—In its work in the Greek islands the American Red Cross has the co-operation of the United States navy. Six submarine chasers have been assigned for transporting person- nel and supplies. Z On the Island of Mytilene are 52,000 Greeks, who fled there from Asia Minor five years ago. Red Cross work- ers are regularly visiting all the towns and clothing has been given to about 20,000 of the refugees, , At the outbreak of the war, in 1914, there were 3,000,000 in Asia Minor. More than 500,000 escaped to the islands in the Aegean. Thousands were massacred. Armed bands of Turks roamed the countryside, plun- dering and murdering Greeks wherever found. The others, driven out of their homes and sent inland, are now return- ing, to find thelr homes either destroys ed or occupied by Turks. Allowed Six Cents a Day. The refugees in the Aegean islands intend to return to Asia Minor as soon as conditions permit. At present the Greek government gives each refugee six cents a day. The Red Cross is devoting much at- tention to the prevention of further epidemics, such as the typhus scourge, which took such a heavy toll at Myti- lene. Food is scanty and costly, and most of the refugees are underfed, even in the large towns. Nearly all are in rags. The hospitals are short of medi- cines and other supplies, and have been crowded by influenza cases. Clothing, blankets and medicine are needed on all the islands. Canned meat for broth is wanted in the hos- pitals, American women run_ the worshops where clothing is made on the three islands of Mytilene, Chios and Samos. 22,000 in Town of Mytilene. Of the 52,000 refugees on Mytilene 22,000 are in the town of Mytilene and its suburbs; the others are scattered about in 62 villages. Of the 20,000 refugees on Crios part are sheltered: in old houses and the rest-in wooden barracks, divided with bagging and old carpets into “rooms,” each accommodating a family of from five to ten persons. The Islands of Lemnos, Imbros, Ten- edos and Samothrace are served with Red Cross supplies from Mytilene; Oin- ousa‘is served from Chios, and Icania from Samos. ‘The American Red Cross agents were received at Mytilene with the greatest enthusiasm.
