In a Middle-West town a little girl of 6 years was ed, literally, in a detention home for one year. Under- d, exactly, that this small waif was never out of doors in a whole twelve-month! She was only “nobody's child.” There wasn't a living soul who cared whether she had daily outing, her necessary breath of fresh air every iy, or even once a year Nobody intended to be cruel. Nurses had charge of her day and matrons by night, but neither the rules nor the ce of the institution covered her case. The home was transients, so nobody noticed that the needs of the little who was stranded there for a year were any different fom those of the child who was detained only over night. Finally, a secretary, in making out an annual report, ered the truth and the little prisoner was placed in a environment. The town where this happened is generous in its support ll welfare work for children, whether public or private. there, as in other cities of the country, the growth of ions for children has not kept pace with the growth tian. And left-over children, usually tiny derelicts cases, have to be placed in odd corners of institu- built for other purposes—where they are liable to be poked. And now—just give “somebody's child”—that precious of which you are the proud parent, or doting grand- nt, or admiring uncle or aunt—just give this very im- t atom of humanity the once-over. “Nobody's child” would be just as sweet, just as cute, as smart—if it only had a fair chance. The modern way of giving it a chance is to take it out ‘the public refuge and make it “somebody's child” by adop- Almost every city has its child placing departments, al- with plenty of winsome babies to place. Whoever adopts one of them not only benefits himself the child, but also relieves the pressure on overcrowded institutions, and makes room therein for one more of never failing crop of “nobody's children,” preventing, such useless pathetic tragedies as the one above re- b> ‘ bs a a § Dr. Carl Muck, musical director, loaned to the Bos- ‘ton Symphony orchestra by the kaiser, has been jailed G@gain as an alien enemy.

A decrease of 30 per cent in the cost of raw hides, announces a St. Louis shoe factory, would affect the manufacturing cost of a pair of shoes about 5 cents. But no doubt an increase of 30 per cent would make ite mecessary to raise the price of shoes about $1.50 a pair. Woodrow Can Place Them They’re stirring up a matter at Washington, now, that irely will be watched by the boys in camp and their folks ‘at home, al! right.
