I am interested in Oppor- nity No. 6, and am inclosing my ©heck to the amount of $520 men- tioned as necessary to keep this fam- 1)y together until the father can come back and support his wife and chil- dren. I thank The Star for giving me this chance to make the season a hap- pier one for the five little children.” Many others have written in similar vein, and scores of others have tele- phoned of their intention to contribute. ©One donor inquired if his contribution | was deductible as charity on his in- come tax return, and he wished to know how such a donation should be designated. The Star is advised by the Bureau of Internal Revenue that funds given in this cause are construed under the general heading of charity and are deductible from income. The donation should be listed in the return as hav- ing been made to “The Star Christmas Opportunity Fund.” Total Now $1,314. A grand total of $1,314.50 has been received to date and checks are arriving by every meil. In addition to gifts asknowledged vesterday, The Star re- | ceived during the afternoon sums total- | ing of which $13 was directed to no specific cases. This money has been added to a miscellanecus account which now totals $248.

His main con- cern was caring for his wife, who was suffering from heart trouble, and his four youngsters, ranging from 2 to 9 years of age. In 1929, however, busi- ness became slow. Mr. J. was no longer able to keep up the mortgage on his property and the mortgage on it was eventually foreclosed. In order to meet the bills of his business Mr. J. borrowed from every source, and when his cred- itors pressed him he became frantic. He knew only one thing—that his wife and children must not suffer. He began passing checks. - Things went along smoothly until the bank brought the matter into court. Mr. J. is now serving a sentence. His wife and four children still must be cared for. Mrs. J. has heart trouble and it is impossible for her to v.ork, even if a Job could be found. She hesitates to accept assistance, but she is helpless and knows she must depend on some one to see her through this crucial period. Mrs. J. is a good manager and can care for her family's needs on $90 a month. The sum of $1,080 would give the family food, clothing, shelter and medical care for a year. Opportunity No. 4. Husband and Father Missing. Amount sought—$300. Previously acknowledged Five vears ago Mrs. D. was comfort- provide for her two children, but now she is desperate. Her only home is a rcom which a charitable agency provides. Her sad story the social worker knows to be true. Mrs. D.'s husband, because of some misunder- standing, lost his job and they lost their furniture and home, and finally Mr. D. left the city, with no word of his where- abouts or his reason for going. The mother lived with various relatives until each asked her to move on. The worker learned a new baby would be coming soon. An effort to reunite the family has been made, but mean- | time the family is receiving only the | little that this agency can give. The mother is not well and should be given a rest, but there is no money. The| agency pays the rent and supplies milk. food and clothing. The sum of $300 5, Opportunity No. Crippled Woman Needs Help.

There are days when the pain is so intense she is barely able to get about, but in spite of her handicap the small home is spotless and the children’s meals ready when they come from school. Clara, Who has two more years in high school, can hardly wait until she is able to work and help care for her mother and two younger brothers. The sum of $990 is needed to keep this family together for another year. Opportunity No. 6. Better Off Without Their Father. (This case closed by a contributor.) Amount sought—$520. Previcusly acknowledged. Opportunity No. 7. | He Once Owned a Newspaper. Previously acknowledged $8.00 There was a time when Mr. Bruce, as we shall call him, was at the top of the ladder. Rung by rung he had gained success, There were bright col- lege days when he was captain of the foot ball team. A proud moment came vg\en a Phi Beta Kappa key was award- e him for high scholastic standing. Then promotion followed promotion in the work he had chosen until Mr, Bruce became owner and publisher of a news- paper. Those were happy days for him, his pretty wife and little bright- eyed boy. They gave gemerously to charity, little dreaming they would ever have to ask assistance. | The day came, however, when Mr. Bruce collapsed financially and physi- cally, He lost his business and with it went his health. He had to spend weeks in the hospital. Now he must rest for months or he will never be able to work again. Friends and employers have been caring for the family. They have done it gladly for they knew them to be deserving and grateful. But the sickness has proven such a long one that they cannot carry on alone. As- sistance is asked for this sad but bril- liant man, his wife and a boy of 10 who is saving & fountain pen he was given in the hope that he may yet go to high school. The sum of $576 is needed for a year. Opportunity No. 8. Where Charity Is a Living Service. Amount sought—8$600. Previously acknowledged The children in this family are the sort that make you think and think hard. There are five of them, the old- est a gitl of 9 years with big eyes and a sad expression which doubtless comes from hunger and from constant asso- ciation with misery and illness and poverty. The father is & sick man. He has tuberculosis. He was young when war was declared and he proudly marched with 4,000,000, strong and well. He re- turned to his home, took up his pre- war work, then married. His work be- came difficult for him and the respon- sibility of his family with his inadequate income broke him mentally and phys- fcally. ‘Through the close contact of the nurse and a welfare agency, the case was turned over to the agency for care. The case worker had the wife and chil- dren examined for signs of this dreaded disease. It was learned that one of the children was badly affected. Provision for sending the father and child to a hospital was made. A promise to care for the family was extended by the worker and the father went away re- lieved mentally. The mother is tired and worried and her burden is doubled because she is obliged to carry on alone. Her sole con- fidant is the case worker on whom she depends entirely for advice and counsel. She goes to the clinic with her family and guards them carefully. But many times the car tokens run low and the cod liver oll seems expensive and the price of eggs and milk mounts higher and the sunshine even has a tax on it when there is no warm clothing to wear in order to get out of doors. The sum of $600 a year will take care of this family. Opportunity No. 9. Appealing Children. Amount sought—$720.

The sum of $500 will ke this family comfcrtable for one year. Opportunity No. 11. Life’s Sunset. (This case closed by a contributor.) Amount sought—$365. Previously acknowledged..... $392.00 - Opportunity No. 12. A Sightless Artist. Amount sought—$520. Previously acknowledged $19.00 No greater tragedy could occur to an artist than to lose his sight. Yet that has been the fate of Mr. A, an artist of the old French school. Though aged, he could continue his beloved work and support himself and his fragile little wife if he could only see. Around the walls of their tiny one- room home are arranged half-finished pictures awaiting a_few last strokes from their creator’s hands. The char- ity worker who visits them weekly to care for their needs knows that he will never paint again and that Mrs. A will never be well enough to leave Ler room. Yet she has not the heart to destroy their dreams of a better day o come and desperately hopes that in some way she can continue to care for the, simple needs of this old couple that they may end their days together. A total of $10 a week or $520 a year is necessary to maintain them in the tiny furnished room they have called home for the last several years. Opportunity No. 13. Pension Is Insufficient. Amount sought—$240. Received today.. $5.00 This family consists of a man, his wife and four children. The man suf- fers from a disability which prevents him_from working. For this disability he draws a pension which partly takes care of his expenses. The children are sickly and seem to need constant medi- ’ cal care. Because of this illness, the mother’s entire time is taken up in car- ing for them. ‘The man has made every possible ef- fort to overcome his difficulty, but is unable to do so. A comparatively small amount, $240, will supplement his in- come sufficiently to permit him to care properly for his family. Opportunity No. 14 Father [ll—Funds Exhausted. Amount sought—$1.020. Previously acknowledged. . $1.00 This carpenter is an immigrant. He came to America many years ago, found a job almost immediately and worked steadily. Marrying a_thrifty woman, the two worked together, fixed up a comfortable home and raised two healthy children. Only a year ago this man was making $35 a week and the family was planning to buy a small home. Then he fell ill Physicians were called, but no dlagnosis During the past year he has remained 1. The family's savings have long been exNausted. The woman has moved to smaller A}unrtcrs. pawned her little bits of jewelry and even sold some of the furniture in an attempt to care for her children without outside help. Now she must ask for aid. ‘The man is out of the hospital, but is unable to move. A nurse visits him daily to change his bandages, but his constan! worry over family matters hinders his recovery. He realizes that ge;: is food and medicine to buy, reng e paid and clothes to be obtain for the children who are of school e The modest sum of $1,020 would main- tain them for a year. Opportunity No. 15. Fruits of Unemployment. Amount sought—$546. Previously acknowledged..... $10.00 Mr. Thomas is a skilled artisan (col- ored), He provided well for his wife and six children until the depression came and he joined the army of the unemployed. He had excellent refer- ences from former patrons, but they no longer had work to offer him. He trudged the streets day by day in vain search for employment. Worry for his wife and children finally broke down his health. A spirit of independence still kept him from asking help until he was faced with an eviction notice. Then he asked for help. The damage, however, was already done. A physical examination of the mother and children showed that Mrs. Thomas must go to the Tuberculosis Hospital and four of the six children were found | te have tuberculosis of the juvenile type. | The task before the social worker is ! now to restore the courage and hope of the man and to assure Mrs. Thomas that while she is in the hospital the children will be provided for. An older daughter, herself now out of employ- ment, is taking the mother's place in the home ‘and giving excellent care to brothers and sisf nourishing cluding cod liver ofl, carfare for five people to and from the Public Health Clinic_and_incidentals. A minimum budget to restore this family to hope and health is $21 a week, or at least $546 for the next six months or until Mr. Thomas can recover his strength 50 that if there is no job he can apply for work relief to the Emergency Bureau of the Board of Public Welfare. Opportunity No. 16. A Reformed Cynic at 12. Amount sought—$250. Previously acknowledged..... $15.50 haned before she was 1 year old, Alice was promptly adopted by neigh- bors who had known her real parents. ts made Al happy until she was 5. by a strange accident she lost both of her foster parents and was again a home- less orphan. This time fate was not so kind to Alice; no kind parents offered her a home. She was pushed about from place to place, and was never really wanted anywhere went. The so- cial worker found her when she was 12 years old after she had run away from her last home. Her round, child+ ish face was bitter and hard, and she never smiled. She said she hated peo- ple. It was with ty that she was persuaded to go to a home where she was assured she would be t#reated For a long time she did not under- stand the affection which her new foster mother bestowed to a happy face may be seen constantly in- willing laughter. But in order for Alice to remain in her very happy home where ‘When the Government department cut down its force this deserted wife lost her job. Her savings were soon gone. Then she took a position as a maid and tried to do laundry work at home in the evening. When she fell sick she continued to try to work. The grandmother died this Fall, so there is no lcnger any one to leave the chil- dren with, even if the mother were able to work. She is making a brave fight against threatened tuberculasis. Who will help keep the home together by contributing toward a minimum budget of $20 a week or a total of $520 for the next six months? Opportunity No. 19. Mental Security vs. Physical Pain. Amount sought—$208. Previously acknowledged With youth, health and a job, the future looked bright for Mr. James and his family. With a wife who was do- ing her part in wise expenditure of his earnings and caring for the home and baby, the husband was realizing for the first time in his life what a real home meant. He was determined that his children should not suffer the effects gf,:d broken home as he had in his boy- Then one day while at work, he was injured by a truck and it was necessary for him to spend many months in the hospital. Although finally pronounced cured the injury has not healed and it will be months before he is able to be self-supporting again. Efforts are being made to, obtain re- newed workmen’s compensation to which the man seems entitled. Meantime, a charitable agency is taking full care of the family, which will soon be increased | by the advent of a new baby. Although little can be done to lessen | his physical pain, financial support will | give Mr. James the mental security | which he needs for recovery. To this| end $208 is needed for the next three| moxéms until other adjustments can be made. Opportunity No. 20. Working Against Heavy Odds. Amount sought—$832. Previously acknowledged. $1.00 | Long a cripple confined to a wheel | chair, he had almost given up hope of ever being able to do anything for his family. Because of his condition he had become despondent and even mo- rose. ‘Then came the opportunity to take training in the use of his hands. Now his_whole outlook on life has changed. For the first time in years he sees a chance at least to “earn his keep.” While the depression has cut down the demand for his wares he still hopes that with the coming of better times business will pick up. Meantime he is ambitious that his children shall have an education. All six of them are now in school and the time is not far distant when two of the older ones should be able to contribute to the Sup- port of the family. The mother helps by earning what she can, but the entire | _ family income of the man and wife is less than $1 a day. To supplement this $16 a week is needed, or $832 for the year.

PR ks Feels Unsafe in Prison. SALT LAKE CITY, December 17 (#). —Alvin A. Jones doesn't feel safe in the Utah State Penitentiary, his father told the Pardon Board yesterday. There have been so many shootings and such fre=quent rioting in the prison, the elder Jones said, that his son wants out to! make sure he doesn't get hurt. (S-SR 2R 2 SR SR S SR S S S SN CAN a Washington family of five persons live on a food budget of $7.25 a week? Can two adults and three children be adequately fed for an average of $1.04 a day? ‘These questions are being asked many times these days. The Department of Agriculture’s Bureau of Home Econom- ics has compiled interesting informsg- tion in this respect. ‘The bureau cials say that any attempt to formulate an adequate fam- ily diet must begin with the following fundamentals: Family Food Guide. Every meal—Milk for children, bread for all. Every day—Cereal in porridge or puddinzs. Potatoes. (or oranges) for iellow vegetable.’ A fruit or additional vegetable. Milk for all. Two to four times a week—Tomatoes nuts. Eggs (especlally for children). Lean meat, fish or poultry, or cheese. Necessary to Build Body. These are essential elements necessary for building or maintaining the body and for regulating the health of the body. Any diet list which does not con- tain them is deficient in that respect. ‘With food prices at their present level in Washington, a weekly market list for two adults and three children, aged 3, 8 and 13, may include the following values at from $6.50 to $7.25 a week: Milk—28 quarts of milk or 14 quarts and 14 tall cans of evaporated milk or 3 pounds of cheese. Vegetables and fruits—13 pounds po- tatoes, 2 pounds dried beans, 3 No. 3 cans or 5 No. 2 cans to- matoes, 3 pounds cabbage, kale or other greens, 3 pounds onions, 2 pounds carrots or rutabagas, 4 pounds turnips and dther root vegetables, 2 No. 2 cans corn, string beans, beets, 2 pounds apples or bananas, and 113 pounds dried fruit, as prunes, raisins, peaches. Bread and cereals—7 loaves bread (11, pounds each), and 10 pounds flour and assorted ce- reals, as oatmeal, cracked wheat, corn meal, rice, macaroni. Fats—1!, pounds butter and table fats, and 1% pounds lard and salt pork. Sweets—2!: pounds sugar, and !; pint cane or sorgo molasses or or sirup. Other foods—!:> pound American cheese, one dozen eggs, and 5 pounds lean meat, fish Accessories — !, pound coffee, pound tea, '. pound cocoa. Baking powder, salt, etc., as needed. Three or four ounces of cod liver oil for each child. The bureau considers that: “This is an adequate diet at minimum cost.” Restricted Diet Program. Figuring on the same basis of pres- ent market prices, a restricted diet for a family of similar size for $5.25 a week was compiled as El program $4.75 to follows: Milk—14 quarts milk or 7 quarts milk and 7 tall cans evaporated milk or 11, pounds cheese. Vegetables and fruits—13 pounds po- tatoes, 2 pounds dried beans, 4 No. 2 cans tomatoes, 2 pounds cabbage. kale or other greens, 2 pounds onions, 2 pounds car- rots or rutabagas, !'¢ pounds turnips and other root = Made of mag- nolia’ leaves, Red Ruscus, pine cones and Heather.

Fats—!, pound butter, table fats and 3 pounds lard, salt pork. Sweets—3 pounds sugar and 1 pint cane or sorgo molasses or sirup. Other foods—:: pound American cheese, 1 dozen eggs, and 2 pounds lean meat, fish. Accessories — '; pound coffee, i pound tea, !, pound cocoa. Baking powder, salt, etc., as needed. Two or three ounces of cod liver ol for each child. This, the bureau officers sey, is “an emergency diet which gives excellent returns in food value for the money, but we should not recommend it for indefinite use.” The bureau also submitted the fol- lowing list of low-cost but nutritious dishes: Thick soups and chowders—Thick bean soup with salt pork, potato milk soup, onion soup with toast and cheese, oatmeal and-potato soup, corn’ chowder,. and fish chowder. Substantial vegetable dishes—Kid- ney bean and rice stew, toma- toes with dumplings, scalloped cabbage and potatoes with cheese, fried mush with toma- toes, baked beans with steamed brown bread, and macaroni and cheese. Meat, fish and egg dishes—Beef stew with carrots, potatoes and on- jons, lamb and turnip stew, sausage and hominy, corned beef hash, potato and fish cakes, scalloped eggs and potatoes, and creamed eggs on toast. Desserts—Apple shortcake, choco- late bread pudding, old-fashion- ed rice pudding, prune and apple scallop, hot gingerbread and cot- tage pudding with fruit sauce. Summary of Necessities. Since the preservation of the health of small children is the principal con- cern of parents and social agencies alike in a time of depression, the bureau gives the following summary of what is nec- essary: For Every Child Every Day. At least— One pint of milk. (He SHOULD have 1': to 2 pints.) Two teaspoonfuls of cod liver oil, if he is less than 2 years old. (He SHOULD have 3 or 4 teaspoonfuls.) One vegetable or fruit.
