The city slumbered in the drowsiness of a Summer midday. Even the ordi- | nary swarm of children was missing from the streets and silence reigned throughout the close quarters of a dingy corner in the Southeast. Only one sound could be heard throughout the stifling sultry aimos- phere—the ceaseless, monctonous whirr —whirr—which came from the shab- biest house in a row of drab-colored buildings. A modest car drew up to the house from which the whirr of the machine | continied to come. A young woman | got out, mounted the steps, and. with- | out waiting for her knock to be an- swered, entered the house. Seamstress Absorbed in Work. In a bare room, clean but in much need of repair. the visitor saw the frail figure of & woman bent over a sewing | machine. The seamstress was 8o ab- | sorbed in her work that she did not| hear the newcomer enter and started nervously when she heard: ! “Good afternoon, Mrs. Gray.

The visitor, a sympathetic youni! woman, excleimed in pity when the wail of a sick child came from the back of the house. The woman at the machine arose. “It's little Jimmie.” she explained. | “He's been ailing all week.

Case Worker Investigates. Miss Cary drove to Assoclated Chari- tles' headquarters, at 1022 w'eventh | street. There she told the story of the Gray family. It did not take long for the understanding social worker, known in her profession as a “case worker,” to present herself at the shabby house in the -Southeast. She found plenty of werk to be dome. The dark-haired, thritis and threatened with tuberculesis, | keep together the home for six children and husband out of work, due to scrious physical cefects. ‘Three of the six children were in need of medical attention, as well as the parcnts.

The worker proceeded about™her task dip'omatically. The father was induced to visit a clinie.
