The Off-the-Street Club, where chil- dren living in the congested districts of Chicago can congregate, is over- crowded. sThe three-story building with its play rooms, its reading rooms, and warm firesides are closed to new- comers. More room is needed. Will you help? Those Outside have no yard to play in, seldom a home for comfort. The dirty, no wed street is their yard and almost their home. Many a fine mind and many a sturdy character has been ruined in these surroundings. Those Inside are given a place to play during the day and evening. finding mentally, morally and physically healthy companions. The chil- dren are not objects of a charity, but subjects for the making of opportunities. The Off- the-Strect Club has thus developed a fine woman out of many a gitl whose future was doubtful, and has built, the manhood of hundreds and hundreds of boys. It is heartrending to exclude newcomers. But it is better to do this than further to overcrowd those within.
