Unattached to ar.y city Or town, they know no permanent homes save the autos and auto camps In jfvhich they live. ~ There are some 20.00<Y of And the majority receive little or no education because the crops demand too much of their time to permit attendance at schcol. The age of these children is from a few weeks to IS years. Babies can be found swaddled in bundles on the ground, while their parents gather the crops.

MENTAL PATIENT WARD AGREEABLE TO COUNCILMEN Health Board and City Legis- ' lators Conferon Care of Insane, The city council will favor a psychopathic ward at the city hospital it developed late 1, today at a conference between the cqyncil finance committee and board of health members. The meeting was held in the office of Councilman Lloyd D. Clayeombe. Sol Sch’oss health board president presented plans for a ward to ac commodate twenty-three patients, the ward to be established in the Burdsa.l units of city hospital. Councilmen all agreed that the present method of handling Insane cases in the county tail should be abo’ished. Estimates of the ward cost vary’ from $30,000 to $50,000. The county- council has already appropriated $20,000 to maintain the ward this year. While admitting the need for the ward, Clayeombe said he believed the major burden of care of the insane should rest on the State. He said he would favor a ward sos the city to be a detention ward, where patients suffering from mental dleodder* could be examined arid treated temporarily. Walter W. Wise, council president, recently advocated establishment of a pcycopathic ward after a tour of Eastern cities. Schloss outlined City’ Hospital projects which would involve expenditure of $250,000 to $300,000 this year.

BISHOP FRANCIS < ASKS FOR FAITH Lenten Services Are Held in Christ Church on lyionument Place, Declaring that faith is. a gift of God and that it is necessity to build it up and strengthen St, Bishop J. M. Francis of All Saints Cathedral. Episcopal, preachid the noon day Lenten sermon today at Christ Church on Monument Place. “I think that- there must be something else besides belief, for entrance into the Christian life,” Bishop Francis said. ‘!The first misconception is that faith has to do only with religion. “Faith is the very condition of our life. The course of the world couldn't go on if you took faith out of life What is the foundation of our lives? It is the family- and the family could not exist without faith. “The thing that is causing fam ily life to be broken up is that men and women have lost faitH. That is I the only cause of the terrible ’ divorces.” “The religion of Jesus Christ is the nost practical thing,” he said. “We have all this foolish talk about the differences between science and religion. Science is knowledge. When God gave us minds. He gave them to be used. “You have to use all the power of your mind and it Is faith that enables you to carry on.” he said.
