Items from Middle Iowa
We almost feel like offering an apology for our
failure in not furnishing Items for the October
issue of the FRIEND. We went to the District
Conference equipped with plenty of writing
material, hoping that when the Rescue and
Temperance program had been rendered we
could find time to arrange and mail the usual
amount of ‘‘copy ” pertaining to t he Rescue work.
We found so many other duties that we failed
utterly and hope this brief explanation will in
partaton1* for on r seeming neglect
A.
Bro. W. I. Buckingham, of Prairie City gave
the address on ‘‘Child Rescue Work” and in a
very impressive way he reminded us of our du
ties and responsibilities in caring for the home-
less and dependent little ones. Bro. Bucking-
ham is rearing an orphan in his own home and
speaks from the standpoint of knowledge.
We now have on hand two applications for
little girls from three to four yea rs of age. Girls
of this age seem to he ha rd to find as one of
these applications has been on file for some
time. In addition to these we have applications
for three boys
We have two boys on hand - one aged seven
years--another five months old, but both of
them will likely be placed by the time this
reaches our readers. It is a real joy to see a
half-starved, sadly neglected baby go into a
good Christian homo where it may be loved and
properly cared for
Little Roy is well and runs everywhere now
and he is almost, worshipped by the three
girls almost grown—as well as by the parents
Mrs S. says. “Wp could not give him up.”
We also have on hand a little girl—Myrtle—
ten years of age, that needs a patient, loving
mother to train and care for her. She is a little
backward in her books but learns easily and
remembers what she learns. Who will be suffi-
ciently interested and open-hearted to send us
an application for this brown-eyed, dark-haired
gi rile?
Roger and Howard and Galen and Donald and
Ruth, all in the Panther Creek church, are a
tine lot of children and we are proud of them all
Galen and Howard are just babies but they are
the source of much joy and comfort in their
new homes. All are doing well. We have beard
from Statia recently and her mother reports
that she is doing well and that she is quite a
helper with the home duties Statta was the
first of our orphans to give her heart to Jesus,
we think —A. M Stine, Adel, Iowa.

THE CHRISTMAS THOUGHT
Ideas on Christmas giving are rapidly changing
among the sensible. Those who think as they tjive are
looking for a year-round service as the important thing.
In a week of shopping, with all its strain, you will
not find a better gift than a year’s subscription to The
Youth's Companion. It offers its service, its clean
entertainment, its fine suggestiveness week after week;
and the end of the year, which finds many a gift in the
attic, dust-covered and forgotten, brings The Compan-
ion again, with all the charm of last Christinastide.
No American monthly at any price offers the same
amount of reading, and none can offer better quality.
Less than four cents a week provides this best of
Christmas gifts $2.00 a year, [f you subscribe now,
all the remaining issues of the year will be sent free,
and The Companion Home Calendar A copy of the
Calendar is also sent t » those who make a gift sub-
scription. Send for sample copies, and the Forecast
for 1915
