for somebody—are benefiting humanity; and the feeling

FIVE BABIES


Riding on the Grand Trunk Railway a few weeks ago, going from
Suspension Bridge to Chicago, I saw a sight so trivial that it seems
unworthy of mention. Yet for three weeks I have remembered it, and so
now I’ll relate it, in order to get rid of it.

And possibly these little incidents of life are the items that make or
mar existence.

But here is what I saw on that railroad train: five children, the
oldest a girl of ten, and the youngest a baby boy of three. They were
traveling alone and had come from Germany, duly tagged, ticketed and
certified.

They were going to their Grandmother at Waukegan, Illinois.
