Miss Helen Kempton, who is England representative of the American Assoc'ution of Family So- clal Workers attended the meeting after having spont the day in look- ng over the local system. She ex- pressed herself as being well pleased with the accomplishments of the New Hritain orgon zation, Miss Cora M.

With the supply of laborers greater than the demand, this is difficult”™ The ent of twenty- five years ago cited the case of a widow asking for food. Her wages were thirty cents .a day for a five- hour day as the factory was on short Her rent was $3 a month. She is not so different from the widow of today On the basis of a wage earner's weekly wage being equal to the monthly rent, the widow we deal with now has just as hard a time when working steadily to make her weekly Income of a possible $16- $22 wage cover a rent varying from $15 to $30. Hours of labor are short- ening; the pay envelope is shrinking; cold weather is near; coal is still going up: rents remain the same; even with food prices somewhat low- er and clothing slightly decreasing in cost, the balance is far from even and the children and bables suffer in con- sequence. When a cutting must be In the family budget, the board change its interesting is to diminish the food supply. The mother loses strength, the babies be- undernourished and frail, and the school children less resistive to disease. One paragraph of twenty-five years ago has a very familiar sound. “Our special need is for children's cloth- ing."” year, Month after month, after we echo that plea for the chil- dren of our fatherless families. Cloth- ing was provided in thirty-five in- stances during November. The num- ber of such are greater today be- cause of the large addition of widows since the 1918 epidemic. Until sev- eral more years have elapsed and the older children grow to working age the help must come undiminished and oft repeated The Charity Organization is aiding a number of deserted wives and is rather inclined to agree with the agent of a quarter of a century ago who advocated the whipping post for deserting husbands and wife beat- ers. He thought, “‘a jail sentence was too good for such brutes” While the wage earner is temporarily re- moved from soclety and loses his reedom, he is warmly housed and fed In his family all income ceases and unless some organization be- friends them, they go cold and hun- gry.

After knowing that | fifty-three families were provided for | by churches and various organiza- | tions, the Charity Organization by means of gifts of $126 and donations | of fruit, chicken, jellies and vege- | tables to the agent for that purpose, was able to provide thirty of our de- pendent mothers with bountiful din- ners. We are very thankful that some of the money is left over with which to spread along the cheer. The months that intervene before another holiday season are many and it is easy to forget the needs of others when our hearts are not especally awakened as at this time of the year. Several of the mothers have already | expressed their joy and appreciation of the dinners received. Although the | Charity Organization attempts to send to each donor a personal thanks. we wish to here algo say “Thank you" to the friends of the needy who, at this time of drives and demands for donations of all kinds, x made such happiness possible. Aside from the extra work and pleasure of Thanksgiving Day, the regular routine of the Char'ty Organ- ization went on as usual. There were 25 families coming to our attention for the first time. 313 requests for service from public officials, private individuals, and 8 out of town inquiries kept us busy. The actual call for material need was less than in the same months of the few years past. Problems arise daily, however, whose solving requires much energy, ingenuity, insight into ' human nature and patience without end. The young woman born in Am- parents comes to us utterly discouraged, asking for advice. She is ambitious to learn and spends three evenings each week at school after working all day. She longs for recreation and a good time with young people on other nights. The parents, still clinging to old world customs, demand all her money. rebel at her apparently too frequent requests for clothes, and scoff at her need of education. What does a woman need of book learning when her duty is not in the business world but to marry and stay in the kitchen with her children? The pareats be- come broken-hearted because the daughter has left home or has chosen unwisely her associates, is staying out too late and absorbing questionable ideas from bad company letter of ' The young father of three tiny tots is left a widower.
