Salisbur ■ Kiwanians when he ad
dressed them at the Yadkin FJgtel the

The first thought of friends wijen
children are not getting sufficient sup
port at home is to rush them to an
orphanage and as a result the orphan
r ages able to take care of all
I the dewatts.
And fuse do not want to take them
3f there is a possibility of getting

pi bad thing to break up a home that I
can be held together, he said, and!
’urged tile Kiwarns Club to help get |
p sufficiently large appropriation for
mothers’ aid from the legislature. |
He told of tile work his institution I
was doing in t’his respect. Thus far
they have enlisted the church in 375
eases. Thp children are stilt in their
home and their mother receives a reg
ular remittance. This is the best way
to care for needy children, lie said,
and the State xtiould increase its
mothers' aid appropriation.
His institution received applica

Wright finished taking the story
aud then “broke" the circuit and
stopped the wires a moment.
"They are my sisters." he told the
chief operator. "I'm afraid I shall g
have to ask for relief so I can go 1
there.”
A substitute took the wire out
Wright changing his first plan, tele
graphed for confirmation and detai s.
He received confirmation of the girls
