Poor Children. liixTS KA5 TO INSIDE POSITION ."Now do you blame me for being careful about who I give clothing and help to?" asked Mrs. C-eorne Doane. M-c.retary of the Associated Charities, srter fho had recited some ces In which burnt pleaded (or overshoes oc pretext of needing them to hold tl.eir Job and then vent and pawned tl.em (or the price of a drink. "Do you blame mo for waiting to Investigate cases? "Tea, they even told the other Imma how easy I wat, and now, be lieve me, they must convince me that they want to work before they get anything around her. e4a Ckll4raa 01 the. Right now I need worsa than any thing elae, unlTrlolhln for children. I am short, rery short, on undercloth ing for children ranslna; In ace Vtetween t and I years. But even In distributing undercloth ing to the children who hare not had underclothing to wear at any tint dur ing the aro weather, tha Associated Charities finds It must eserclse care. For there ar mothers who throw out the underclothing given them ff It Is not just to their taste, or if It needs wsshlng. 8omtlms tha organisation. In .a hurry to help a ease, assumes thst tha mother will 'wash tha old garments ent for their children. In eotne cases, of course, they aasuroa correctly. In others, however, the mothers will throw out or burn a garment that does not just suit their testa. And tha Innocent child suffers as much aa before. Tares HajaJree) Tmmlkl Helped. This month will be a record-breaker In tha number of families helped by the Associated Charities. Already too fami lies have been helped, and there are three mora days In tha month. December wss a record-breaker thus far, but January Is going to exceed It. Unemployment, of course, Is still the big problem. "I hop when tha welfare board geta busy It will take up tha un employment problem and do something," aid Mrs. Dome. "That la after all the Mg problem. I think Mr. Jardlne Is on the right track In putting city prisoners to work on toe streets. After a while when we find tha bead of a family who Is able-bodied and wilt not work to sup port his family wo can at least arrest him for nonsupport sad put hlra to work on the streets to give him a taste of work." Fiade Inelde Jeh. The father of eight small children hss been put to work at an Inside job at Mi a month, after the Associated Charities hss carried tha family practically for two years. The Associated Charities got him the Job, now that his tubercular condition has been cured, and he Is considered more nearly able-bodied than he has been for some years. This man tiled hard to supjiort this large family. Repeatedly he sought out Jobs with the help of the Associated Charities, and as regularly failed to hold them on account of his physical condition. Weak as ha waa he stumbled out to the lea harvest and tried to ho d a Job there. But It takes a full-chested man, standing squarely on his feet, to hold a job Ilka that, and he had to give It up. It was then thst the Associated Charities finally located him the job at inside work at I14. The eldest of the eight children la It yeara old. Two cHlldrcn have been bora in the family since they have been re relvlng regular help from charity. J New Emperor of China Declines to Stand on Ceremony (Correspondetve of the Aseoclated Press.) PEKINO, Jan. J. Much Confusion has arisen since Tuan Shi Kal e acceptance of the emperorship because of the uni versal desire of Chlnesa officials to "save their face" and not do anything which will violate tradltlone and make them ridiculous according to ancient practices and Onnfurlan customs. Many rrnlgnatlons have been submitted by offlclala who erf here strictly to the ancient belief thst the Tatars snd the Talnrs lon are ordelned of heaven and run not he replaced by Tuan Bhl Kal without doing viol, nee to all that la sacred In the teachings of Confuclue. Another tumbling block la the long-recognlaed I belief that a man who haa once been of superior rank to another can never per mit tha conditions to be reversed. A deelre to prevent hie former super iors from realmlnej from ths goern ment haa Inspired Tuan Phi Kal to leaue the following Mandate, designed to spare the dignity of Influential offlclala ha doea not care to leave tha government service and become hla opponent: "In consideration of my mean virtue, it ought to be Impoaelble for me to be come emperor of tha people. However, on account of the many difficulties of the time which I have met with, I cannot ahlft the burdens from my shoulders. But at every moment I fee that my position Is Use to a person going to the verre of a deep precipice or treading upon thin Ice. Of lata I have received many dispatches and telegram from the provinces, tha Benders of which style themeelvea 'aheng (subject). Although they no doubt think that they are but observing the proper etiquette, I myself feel uneasy. Most of the responsible Hrll and military positions of tb country are being held by my former colleeguee, and when I recall that fact It makes me feel mere difficult. It msy be eald that In ancient time See-yueh and Wujen mede no distinction In this respect between tha old and their new dynasties. But how dare I to rank mrself with sage emperors and klngsT Therefore, all my former companions and respectful old seqiialn tancea muat not atyle themselvee "eheng. As the present situation la most criti cal, they should devote all their atten tion for the salvation of the nation and not obeerve mere formalltlee and unim portant details." Still (oiatlx.

He has found twenty rioce snd eight hablea so far, and Is a good deal surprised over the result. He thinks tha babies were rung In on him. Dutch Socialists Plan Campaign for Peace in Europe (Correspondence of tha Associated PreaaV AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Jsn. . Dutch socialists conceive It to be their special task to bring together their com rades of the belligerent nations for com mon sction against the war. In this, they have not succeeded, owing chiefly to the refueal of the French and German so cialists to co-operate to thla end. accord ing to J. H. Schaner. the principal spokes man of the social-democratic party at Its conference Just held here. Competition fomented by capitalism, Mr. Schaper declared, was tha cauaa of the European war, and it redounds to the credit of the socialists of all nations thst they have said everything against It. "Eicept In (Jet-many." Interrupted a heckler, whereupon, rVheper angrily re torted that In Berlin two daya before tha war, the streets resounded with anti-war songs and orlee for peace. The speaker denied that the war had shown the fal libility of socialists principles, and af formed that on the contrary they had fully Justified themselves. The war, he oontened. haa proved that socialism la not an unattainable Ideal, and ho pointed out that the stats regulation of food supplies and the establishment ot maxi mum prices on the necessaries ot life, as adopted at the present time In most European countries, was the first step towarda the realisation of the socialistic Idea, of distribution. Whether war will be possible when socialism Is adopted as a basis of govern ment waa a question he said could not be answered directly. He saw severe pres sure upon the workers owing to the de mands of all governments for rearma ments after tha war; but socialism would. at the same time, gain great Influence Those who returned from the battle field would reallie the misery wrought by militarism, and join in the atrugaie for democracy against secert diplomacy. His Gratltade. There Is a certain little fellow Intw whose heart his mother hss been tat some time striving to Instill tha senti ment of generosity, which, to her regret, did not appear to be naturally present. The son of a poor family of the aelsh- borhood she had particularly commended! to her boy's consideration. The other day he came In with beaming face. "You krlow Tom. that poor boyT" ha said eagerly. "Well. I glved him halt that boa of candy you glved me." "Tou are mamma's own sweet little) man," the fond mother approved. "Waal he grateful?" "Oh. he 'predated It, all right. tha little fellow assured her. "Het let ma lick him when .two other kids could see. an' tomorrow he's goln' to come round bv the school and ct me lick him tiwht In front of everybody, for the other halt of tha box." New Tork Pun.
