Chest Dollars in Action Child With Club Foot Can Walk Normally, Due to Treatment at Children’s Country Home. Little Joey, walk! This statement, in regard to a nor- mal child of that age. would mean nothing unusual. Applied to Joey, it savors of the miraculous. Other children of that age romp all over, but Joey's steps are falter- ing as he toddles toward the arms of Miss Edith Torkington, superin- tendent of the Children’s Country Home. But place the young gentle- man in a kiddy car, and he is the champion speed demond of the home’s playground. Joey, when 7 months old, was brought to the home, at Eighteenth street and Bunker Hill road north- east. He weighed 10 pounds. More- over, he had one of the worst club feet on record. The member was hardly more than a shapeless lump, and was so twisted that when he tried to stand the ankle bone touched the ground. The little fellow was suffering from | malnutrition. His tfather had been | killed in an automobile accident 5 months before he was born. and his | wmother, a maid, had all she could do | to provide food for him and her two | other children. There was little hope ©f obtaining the expensive medical | 21 months old, can treatment that would make Joey's foot like that of other boys. Since coming to the home life for Joey has been just one plaster cast after another. with massages thrown in for good measure, until now he wesrs an un- obtrusive brace, | . Today Joey is a living example of what patience and loving care will do for a child with the sunny disposition | that is naturally his, although, due to | the great amount of pain he has en- | dured, & cloud some times dims the smile at the sight of strangers. At the age of 21-months he is a “poster” baby, chubby, with curly hair and bright eyes. But Joey’s sufferings are not over. Now that his little body has been built up and the tiny foot partially re- | shaped, there will be a series of oper- ations to bring the foot almost to normal. The foot, not the leg, will be sightly shorter than the other one, | but no special built-up shoe will be | necessary, and he will not even limp. | Because of funds raised by the | Community Chest, little Joey will be given an opportunity to live a ncrmal, happy life, when he might otherwise | have been doomed as a hopeless crip- ple, envying other children who could run about, play ball, and otherwise enjoy life with the gang. ‘\ Chest (Continued From First Page.) n the hope of obtaining employment | and many of them are either stranded or secure only part-time work, which makes help for them imperative. “We feel that Government employes rvealize this responsibility and if the heads of the departments will mani- | fest & real interest in the campaign | there will be no difficulty on down | the line in obtaining our quota in the present campaign.” Hull Issues Appeal. Secretary of State Hull yesterday fssued an appeal to every Government | worker to “consider himself an active | worker with the Governmental Unit.” Hull's statement was as follows: “I do not believe that there is a Government employe in Washmgton[ who would miss the opportunity pre-| sented by the Community Chest this year to participate to the extent of | his ability in the organized effort to | relieve human suffering and to assist | those less fortunate than himself. | Therefore each one of us should con- | gider himself an active worker with the Governmental Unit and labor with- out stint to the end that the quota of £677.000 will not only be met, but ex- ceeded.” Governmental Unit divisions report- | {ng 100 per cent or more of their quota | yesterday, divisions, chairmen and | percentages, are as follows: Alley Dwelling of District of Colum- | bia, John Ihlder, chairman, 133.33 per | cent; Commodity Credit Corp, Guy | G.
