And not In utter nakedness, But trailing clouds ot glory do we come From God, who Is our home." And these little ones who come from God, who is their home, are not alone the children of the rich. They come to the poor as well. They sometimes nter. where they are not wanted, or where poverty and the relentless taskmaster, Work, drive so severely that there is not time or strength to give them love and care. Only a few days ago, a man ap pealed "to a worker in charity in Omaha, saying, "My wife is dead; my family large. Where can I leave my baby while I work?" In sorrow, the woman shook her head. There was no Day Nursery. And mothers, many4 many of them, without" hus bands, or with ones sick or incapaci tated, need, and are willing to work, but have babies. who require their care. Ye who believe that women who bear the race deserve the greatest consideration their fellow men can give thenv e who want to help parents who desire to keep posses sion of their own children, and ye who believe tlTSt mothers who are yet willing to go out and work by the day for others, should be ac corded that sober privilege, listen to the story of the Day Nursery in Omaha. - . It will be established erly in De cember in Jacobs Hall1716 Dodge street, by the National League for Women's service, Mrs. William Archibald Smith, local chairman. The story of the day nursery is not new to everyone. Grace CMat ham Redick, age 4 heard it some days ago. "Heaven lies about us ii our infancy," says the poet. Litth Grace living still in the "clouds of glory" easily understood' the language of the needy ones and quickly endowed a bed for the Day nursery. Another who communes with the voices of goodness is Mrs. Thomas L. Kimball. She,' too. recognized the cry of little ones and their be 'eching mothers and endowed a bed the very first one. It is of such as Mrs. Kimball Wordsworth says: ' "The thought of our past yeara In me doth breed j Perpetual benediction." Others who have endowed beds and 12 more are needed are Mes dames George A. Joslyn, Milton Barlow, E. F. Folda, William Archi bald Smith, Joseph Polcar, L. J. Healey, Louis Nash, Myron Learned and Luther Kountze; Miss Arabel Kimball; Messrs. L. J. Healey, Mac Baldrige, W. II. Green. W. B. Tagg and Dundee Woman's Patriotic club. The Dundee club, as well as Mrs. H. H. Baldrige's canteen Company H, have hemmed sheets and towels for the nursery. And again, more are needed! Mrs. E. M. Syfert is chairman of the endowment fund. But all the money and all the sup plies will be given, for the human heart is kind and will express itself in deeds that canont be described in words: "Thanks to the human heart by which we live; Thanks to lta tendernesi, lti . Joy and fears. To me the meanest flower that blows can Rive Thoughts that do often lie too deep for tears."
