A Sl'EHAL APPEAL John "Carr" hes worked very hard nil his life, and although only an unskilled laborer managed to pro vide well for his growing family. Some time ajo his health began to fall and although he knew he should have a rest and medical attention, he did not see how he could stop working.

The result Is that he has contracted an advanced stage of tuberculosis, and now he is in a hospital. The only Income his fam ily has Is the wages of a seventeen- year-old son who earns very little as a factory helper. The next oldest child Is a sixteen -year -old girl, but she suffers also from tuberculosis and cannot work. The other four children range In ages from elevon down to less than two years. They are undernourished and In need of an extended health building program Mrs.

"Carr" Is not strong, but she has been doing her best by acting as ianltress In the tenement In which they live, In order to save paying rent. Things are getting worse Instead of better, and the mother, fearful of having the home broken up and her children teken from her, appealed to the Brooklyn Bureau of Charities for help. The Bureau is making plans to care for them, but to do so properly will require considerable time and little over $500 In money. Special contributions ere necessary In order to obtain this fund for the "Carr" family, and the Bureau asks that gifts to make up this amount be sent to Its office at Schermerhorn street, -marked for 858 CANARSIE A card party was enjoyed Monday afternoon at Gienwood Palace, Glen-wood road and East 85th street, under the auspices of the Rosary '6o-slety.

Lafayetta Ave. Bushwick Z77S The police of the East New York and Canarsle stations are In a sad predicament. They have been criticized by civic societies for permitting persons to use acant lots for dumping grounds. The patrolman on the posts near these lots have been given warning by the civic workers that unless those who do the dumping In the lots are apprehended, a letter of complaint will be sent to the Police Convuls-sloner. As the result of these warnings the policemen have been on the lookout for the offenders, and 'In some Instances they have been successful in catchlnghem on the Job.

But now the patrolmen feel that It Is useless to bring the violators of the sanitary code In. When do they are criticized by the presiding magistrates and the defendant Is permitted to go home. On Monday a patrolman of the Canarsle station appeared In the New Jersey Avenue Court and charged a resident of the district with dumping rubbish In a vacant lot. "This Is a terrible charge," said Magistrate Ellperln. "I understand that the police have everything else so well In hand that they now give attention to these' serious offenses.

If you had any judgment you would never have arrested this man." The defendant was discharged. This attitude does not meet with the approval of the civic organizations LUt East New York. In all liklihood a letter will bs sent to the Chief liBlstrate asking him to request the city magistrate to cooperate with the police in stamping out the practice of dumping garbage and other stuff In the lots. "These lots are used by our children In the summer and the lumping of garbage In them helps In toe spread of disease and endangers the lives of the children." Going to the Country?
