For she has friends in every port m the world who aid her in her work. Since 1920 Mrs. Roper has traced no less than 5,000 seamen who had been given up for lost. She has also been the means of restoring many a farm lad to the family he left over some little difficulty, for she u "Mother Confessor’’ to the great army of seafarers who visit New York every year.
