Say Jewelry Trade
Is Promising in
South America
New York. —Foreign trade experts
declare that the United States has
the greatest opportunity in history
to build up a wonderful trade in
jewelry and silverware with the
countries of South America. With
jewelry manumanure crippled it:
Europe by the war, and with the
European Jewelry trade with South
America almost completely wiped
out, the United States, they say, has
an opulent field awaiting it.
The South American Jewelry field
was controlled largely by European
jewelry manufacturers bef-.-e the
war. Germany was a dominant fac
tor in all South American mar 'ets.
If, declare tho trade experst, Ameri
can manufacturing Jewelers do not
at once invade this field with an ag
gressive selling campaign, it is cer
tain that in a short time South
American Jewelry markets again will
rovert to Europe.
England appreciates, the value of
the field and already is laying plans
to exploit it. G. F. Braddook, of
the Department of Overseas Trado
of the British Board of Trado is at
present traveling through South
America making an elaborate study
of conditions governing the Jewelry
market with a view of enabling
British merchants to gain a solid
foothold there In tho quickest and
most effective way.
Even Break in Beer
Decision, Palmer Says
Washington, D. C., Aug. 7.—That,
wholly erroneous statements had
been issued as to the nature of the
Federal court decisions on the le
gality of the sale of 2.75 per cent,
beer had been issued from various
sources, was charged by Attorney
General A. Mitchell Palmer,
wore obviously circulated to leave
the impression that the govern
ment's contention as to the amount
of alcohol permissible in beer under
tho war-time prohibition act had
not been supported by the court
decisions In a majority of cases.
Mr. Palmer said he had seen the
statement that the decisions were
ten to four against the govern
ment's position, whereas the fact is
that they have been four to four in
support of the government's po
sition, while the New York and
Baltimore decisions presented fea
tures which, when properly consid
ered, were more in favor of the gov
ernment's main contentions than
opposed thereto.
ONE LITTLE TALE
OF TIMELY HELP
Thirteen-Year-Old Girl Has
Charge of Big Family; As
sociated Aid Helps
Despite the enforcement of wartime
prohibition the Associated Aids agents
are still unearthing the ravages of
drink upon the family life of the com
munity, and despite the prevalence of
high wages, plenty of work and gen
eral prosperity they are finding in
stances of want and hardship in the
city.
Imngine a thirteen-year-old girl tak
ing charge of a family of seven chil
dren. just because the mother would
insist on drinking and not making a
home for them. Miss Glenn Gottschall,
of the Associated Aids Society is one
who can tell how "the other half" lives,
and were it not for organizations like
this the conditions existing among cer
tain classes of people would he worse
than intolerable. No matter how dif
ficult the case may be, how utterly
hopeless seemingly, Miss Gottschall and
her helpers willingly undertake it.
For example, a drinking wife, seven
children, and a husband so discouraged
that lie had deserted the family, made
a hard problem. Mr. Smith, the hus
band, came to the office of the Asso
ciated Aid Societies amf announced he
had left his home and rented a room
for himself. He was utterly worn out
and stated that he would not return
under existing conditions and that
there was no hope they would ever be
made -better as every effort had failed.
This hard working man. had arranged
to remain with Ills present employer,
and made provisions for supporting his
family. He requested that the Asso
ciated Aid Societies place his children
in some good home and said that almost
any time the workers called they woukl
be sure to find Mrs. Smith intoxicated
and the kiddies neglected. Mary, the
13-year-old daughter, was carrying all
the responsibility of the home and was
informing her father daily as to how
afTairs were progressing. She also re
ceived from him money for the family
needs. .
Even Baby Was 111
Miss Gottschall called at the home
and found things just as the father
said they would be. The house itself
was rather well-furnished and neat but
decidedly dirty. The children were
running wild and the baby was ill. At
first the mother resented the call but
eventually softened and at the men
tion of her husband's name was unable
to hold back the tears.
Other calls followed, the house was
cleaned, and the mother tried hard
to do the right thing. With the as
sistance of a pastor and the Associated
Aid people she succeeded so well that
it was finally decided that a supper
should be prepared to which the hus
band should be invited as the honor
guest. The all-Important evening ar
rived. the husband came, and a recon
ciliation was offered.
From that time on affairs improved
coptinually. Naturally, there were
occasional relapses but, on the whole,
things were bright and promising.
Then, it was discovered that the mother
was tubercular and for six months her
sister assumed her duties while she
underwent a course of treatment at
a sanatorium. At the end of that time
she returned, completely cured.
Then began a new era in the life of
that one-time wrecked family. Condi
tions improved with great rapidity and
present reports are most favorable.
This is but one of many instances
where the family rehabilitation work
carried on by the local' Associated Aid
Societies has effected remarkable
changes in the lives of entire families.
During the month of July, 86 cases of
tills kind were cared for.
Help in Many Ways
Sometimes an income was provided
to tide the family over a period during
which the bread winner was ill. Again,
children who had been, taken away
from the parents and placed in homes
Misrepresentation
or Larceny?
Which is the worse? V think
misrepresentation. You can jail
the person who commits larceny
and keep him out of society, but
how about the man who is offer
ing you free service, and some
thing for nothing, and then
charges you an exorbitant price,
taking your money for inferior
goods and service, especially
whet? your eyesight is at stake?
You should look into the propo
sition thoroughly before you in
vest in bargain (?) glasses.

for the past few years were returned '
to their parents because for some rea
son or other an improvement had been
made permitting the family to be re
established once more. Then too, there
were cases where discouraged widows
requested that their children be placed
in homes, but the Association, realiz
ing that they were good mothers, have
given support and relieved the neces
sity of such un action.
Everything told, the Association
handled a total of 160 cases during the
month of July, and made 230 visits in
the city and county. In the children's
department, 20 children were placed
in institutions for special care and a
number with good, private families.
There were a number of cases where
emergency relief was furnished for the
destitute and milk was supplied where
illness existed. In addition, a large
part of the work consisted of assisting
in the unraveling of moral problems.
