Needy Children
"In winter they sometimes wear
only underclothing and go bare
footed in the snow" . . . "she and
her husband are separated and
four children are being cared for
in Viriginia; the mother must earn
her living by housework and wants
her boy placed in a foster home."
" . .. She is happy with her sis
ter and attending high school. The
money paid for her board, al
though only $3 a week, provides a
small additional income, for the
family since the sister's husband
only earns $l4 dollars a week and
the rent is $l3 a month . . . the
parents had separated because of
the father's drinking habits and
the mother had left home and chil
dren."
It is cases such as these present
ed by the Mifflin County Children's
Aid Society that the quarter you
contribute to WSGA's annual
Christmas Drive helps remedy. At
present there are 92 children in
their care who have been placed
in - foster homes
Money contributed to the drive
also aids American Women's Hos
