Colonel Ernest k Coulter,
"We are today experiencing the
stirring sensations of a quickened al-
truism. The fearful disaster in the
cost has aroused us to the thought
that all men are brothers. The cry
of need is heard and the country is
responding, forgetting race. distance
or creed. It often takes a catastro-
phe or a dramatic happening to
force the thought of the brother-
hood of man in us.
"I am going to tell you todiv how
we were suddenly brought to a real.
ization that helpless children—"rho

about within the past few years.
This. after centuries of lethargic
sleep.
“In the slow process of sodlal evo-
lution the rights of the child have
been the last to he recognized. Man.
until very recently, has been more
iralous of property rights than he has
been of human rights. There were
laws to protect dogs and horses
from cruelty long before there was

COL. COULTER TELLS KIWANIS
CLUB ABOUT WORK TO PREVENT
CRUELTY TO NATION’S CHILDREN
~ DOINGS ANT}. ACTIVITIES QF
NORWAL' KIWANIS CLUB
who is general manager of the
New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to. Children, was
the speaker yesterday at the Kiwanis luncheon, held at the Nor-
walk Country Club. Colonel Coultor. who is making his home in
this city now, and who has been interested in child welfare work
for a number of years, spoke in part as follows:
any adequate legislation to safe-
guard the child. The dog and the
horse “ere regarded us saving prop-
erty value. The owner paid a few
pennies or a few dollars for his do
or his horse and he was jealous th v.
his property be protected. but with
children it was different. l'ntil 50
years ago there were no adequate
statutes to stay the hand of the par-
cnt or guardian who would beat his
child into a state of insensibiliry and
throw him out into the streetio per-
ish. “'ithin the past half century
we, have had a great social awaken-
ing. We now recognize in our chil-
dren our greatest national asset. We
realize at last that 'the race marches
forward on the feet of little chil-
dren.’ ‘
"It has been due very largely to
our societies for the prevention of
cruelty to children that this awaken~
ing has been brought about and that
legislation has been placed on the
statute books of practically all our
states giving the child some adequate
measure of protection. We Time to
thank for inaugurating and giving
the great impetus to this movement
for something like. adequate legal
protection to help the helpless child.

Gerry. who was the pioneer- in this
field and who devote. to muses to
the upbuilding of legislation. the ef-
fects of-which are now’world wide:
'"It all came: about through a
dramatic incident. Very often a
great movement» for .humashb‘ctter-
ment is started through what um
time seems like an accident. ' It takes
a dramatic happening. ‘ often. to
shake people out of their loihargi‘
and to arouse them to the fact. that
their neighbors and helpless- “human
beings are being cruelly oppressed.“
"Colonel Coulter then roiatedths
incident of' the ' first child whose
cruel plight led to tho'orgs‘aisation
of the first society for the prevention
of cruelty to children—tho New York
society which is the parent of more
than 500 similar organisations in dif-
ferent parts of the world. ~ .
' “A volunteer missionary went into
a~wretched tenement. PMticaIly 50
years ago. to minister to a woman
who wa's dying of_ tuberculosis.
Blows and the screams _of a’ child
were heard in the next room and
the dying woman asked her visitor to
do something to save the little girl.
who was daily being subjected to
beatings and torture.
" 'If you want to do something for
me. saye that. child. then I can die
liappy.’
"This volunteer missionary. Mrs
Etta \Vheeler was her name. tried to
go to the rescue.’ but her way was
barred and her pleas were answered
with curses. Neither the police nor
the magistrates could help her. They
were sorry, but they could issue no
warrant unless there were eye wit
nesses to the assaults.
"As late as it'll the attitude of
people was summed up in the words:
No interference between parent and
child. Then Mrs.‘Wheeler conrultei'
Henry Bergh. founder of the society
for the prevention of cruelty to ani-
mals. Mr. Bergh. then counsel for
the Animal society. could find noth-
ing in the statutes under which to
proceed. Finally Mr. Gerry succeed-
ed in obtnining from a. Supreme
court Judge's writ of habeas corpus.
"When the door of the miserable
tenement room was forced, an eight»
year-old girl was found. shrinking
and shivering in a corner. She was
almost naked. Her wan. pinched
face was a mass‘of unheated cuts
and bruises. Her body was a mass of
more and long abrasions. which had
been inflicted with a pair of heavy
scissors.
“Mary Ellen was the child's nama
and that name is today famous in
humanitarian history. She had been
cared for by a charity society for a
time and then adopted by a family
who half starved her. liar foster
mother beat the child every day
with a whip and shears merely to soc
the child suder. 'raa child was
wrapped up and conveyed to a w
in carriage. A great public, clamor
started when the child was produced
in court. A law. drafled by Mr.
Barry was enacted in ”1.75 which
gave the society the right to preier
complaints before any court or mags
istraie in any matter relating to or
affecting children. Two years later
came another law. which prohibited
that any child' under the age of it.
who was under restraint or convic-
tion. should be locked up with adults
charged with or convicted of crisps.
Mary Ellen. She became the wife of
a prosperous up-state farmer and is
now the happy mother of a large
family.
"Out of that case. which came to
public attention in a dramatic way.
have grown more than 500 organiza-
tions for the legal‘protcetion of chil-
"To return. however. to the case of ‘
lplalnts of‘ those. nelect and evil liv-
ing conditions in New York county
alone.
"this is a wonderful work and I
wish to comtulate this or—anlss-
tion on the part that it has taken in
behalf of the undercpriflleged child."

who do see it, rays a bulletin of the

The flag now consists of the Presi-

background, with a large white star
in each corner. The design of this
seal may be seen in the floor of the
entrance corridor of the White
House. and was used by at least one
President in his favorite stick-pin.
Usage Governing Display.
The custom governing the arcs of
the President's flag and the history
of its adoption are described in
"Flags of the World" a compilation
by Dr. Gilbert Grosvernor and Lieu-
tenant-Commander Byron McCand-
less. U. s. N., as follows:
"When the President visits a vesv
sol of the United States. the Frost?
dent's flag is broken at the main
is kept flying as long as he is on
board.
'When the President is embarked
on a boat he usually directs that his
flag be displayed from the sill in
the bow of his barge. a he

sels of the navy parade the full
guard, four ruffles are givos'ou the
drum. four nourishes are sounded on
the bugle, the National Anthem is
played by the band. and officers and
men salute.
"Previously there were .two do-
sisns displayed on dogs and on col-
ors to be used is- tha a of

and the navy. 'I'ha navy design was

and as a result the suggestion was
made to the President that the navy

addition of four stars—one in each
corner.
"The flags of an Admiral and a
General bear four stars asa sign of
