Framed in this chronicle of frivolity the simple words, “A Home for Mother,” struck a sharp discord that caught my Interest. Reading further, I learned that “a dozen elderly ladies would be accommodated in cheerful surroundings for $25 a month up at No, 62 Clinton Place, Newark, N, J.” A home for mother! Whose mother? I wondered. And why must a mother live apart from her children? Per- haps mother {s old and fretful; per- haps she talks too much, says the same thing over and over, asks too many questions, gives too much ad- vice, HBESE speculations were inter- rupted by @ small boy who sat in the seat ahead of me and who Questioned the young woman beside him with the monotonous curiosity of childhood. “Mother, when are we going to get off? How many stops ts it before we get to Newark? Why did the train stop, mother? What makes the train go? What is steam? Where does it come from? How do you know it comes from that? Who said wor” ‘The boy's mother, @ young woman of ruddy vigor and healthy calm, answered the same questions over and over, She did not appear tm- patient, yet she could not have beea interested. No adult worman not eut- fering arrested mental develop- ment is ever stimulated by conver- sation with a little boy, But the mother and her Httle son talked o! and on, the boy demanding, mother giving, And looking at them I thought, “To-day she gives every- thing to him. How proud he will be when he grows into a man and can give everything to her.” And then my eye upon that disquieting advertisement —"A Home for Mother.” And I made up my mind that I would get off at Newark and visit the home for mothers, find out how many mothers were there and why the children who should have been the consolation of their old age had turned them over to a stranger to be cared for, So I left the train, took a Broad Street car out Clinton Avenue to Clinton Place to a large detached frame house in the middle of a block, 34th Street—New York fell once more | to board, But the grandmother and the little girl couldn't get along, so the old lady boards with me now. "T board a dozen old ladies from sixty to elghty-four. There are nine with me. There ts a great need for a place like this. You see when the children get married, the in-laws do not want the mother around. It’s hu- man nature; I've put every cent I have in this place. I ike old ladies and I think there's more need of care for them than for orphans, Orphans have a lot to look forward to, but an old lady is on the down grade, There is nothing ahead for her. And of course lots of people think old ladies live too long. “qn my advertisement I sald $26 per month up. But I needn't tell you there ts no profit in boarding an old lady at that price, even with three in a room. I do it because !t is my work. My best room with « private bath is $20 @ week with board. The old ladies that pay $25 @ month are Government pensioners, widows of the Civil War, who get @ $20 pension. Some relative pays the extra $5. I have one old lady here who gave her life savings, $600, to got ina homein Elizabeth. At the end of two years the home had her com- mitted to an asylum for the insane. There was @ clause in the contract which declared the agreement to care for the old lady for life void if she became unbalanced. She was not un- | balanced but they got rid of her that way, and she could do nothing. Her niece, who works in a department |store in New York, pays ber board | here."* | Later I met the old lady who, dur- ing the day leaves her own small room on the third floor apd sita In the sunny window of the vaoant best room. She was sitting there yester- day when I in, plump, gray haired, an ideal grandma, She wore two pairs of sper on her nose a new pair, which she explained had disapointinng, as she ld not see a bit better than wita old ones. All the old ladies aat lone in their rooms, I found them too old to work, too old to read, too old to do anything save to alt with folded hands and think of the children who boarded them out. | ERHAPS they think of the hours of agony those children cost them, of sleepless, anxious nights when they nursed them through the {nesses of babyhood, of the clothes they mended and washed.
