MIEISE ITS MEMBERSHIP
“Am I my brother’s keeper.’’
This is a question we are all
called upon to answer. What
shall the answer be?
The Executive committee of
the Texas Society for -Crippled
Children has authorized a
state-wide campaign for mem-
bership to begin at once ar.d
close March 23, 1935.
Many people want to help in
this humanitarian problem of
hospitalizing crippled children
whose parents are unable to
care for such hospitalization,
and many of them have never
had this privilege. This is
their opportunity.
There are more than 20,000
crippled children in the State,
half of whom have parents
who cannot pa? for this serv-
ice. This Society has aided
more than 650 children with
the funds at their disposal the
first 18 months of their service.
Their files are filled with
pleas and appeals that would
tear out the heart strings of the
stoniest of hearts. Their funds
are exhausted, and they are
