Mrs. Morris U. Ely is secretary of the Throop Avenue Children's Orthopedic Hospital, Mrs. John B. Creighton is chairman of the finance committee and Mrs.

William Earle, is chairman. The managers include: Mrs. Horatio Adams, Mrs. Henry R. Beguelin, Mrs.

Owen N. Brown, Mrs. John B. Creighton, Mrs. Norman Dike, Mrs.

Charles Graff, Miss Florence Gunnison, Mrs. Walter Hammitt, Mrs. Bayard S. Litchfield, Mrs. George A.

Lung, Mrs. J. T. Matchett, Mrs. George W.

Mears, Mrs. William Mitchell, Mrs. Thomas J. Riley, Miss Julia F. Ring, Miss Helen Sperry and Mrs.

Eugene Widmann. This board of managers is making every effort to replenish the treasury of the Hospital in order to continue the wonderful work among the crippled children. There are six hundred little paralyzed children who have partially recovered and who will be neglected and grow up cripples unless the Hospital and Dispensary is kept open for them. There are about four hundred other children who were also left crippled by the epidemic of 1916 that are around about this dispensary who should be coming for regular treatment. Every one of these thousand children should have, right now, the best care and treatment that can be had anywhere.

If so, most of them can be entirely cured. The Hospital and Dispensary was opened immediately after the epidemic of 1916. A ftind of $50,000 was raised which has been sufficient to carry the work up to the present with the assistance of the New York Committee on After Care of Infantile Paralysis Cases. These funds are now exhausted and the children are only partially cured. Rather than leave them deformed for life, the Board of Managers has secured pledges amounting to $10,000, which is not quite half enough to keep the work going1 for a year.

This is one of the few institutions devoted exclusively to the care of such cases, and its work is second to none. The treatment consists of massage, muscle training, electrical treatment and the providing of braces and surgical and medical care. Everyone interested in this work among crippled children is urged to assist the managers in their efforts to maintain the hospital by sending a check, no matter how small, to Mrs. William P. Earle, 470 Throop Avenue.

The Brooklyn Music School Settlement, 525 Grand Avenue, of which Mr. Kendall K. Mussey is director, opened for the fall and winter terms on Monday of this week, September sixteenth.

Besides its regular courses of instruction in piano, voice, violin and 'cello, there will be several interesting new courses, among them being a series of lecture-recitals by Mr. Frank La Forge, the well-known composer-pianist, who, has become a member of the faculty of the school. Another important announcement is a course in French to be given by Madame Augette Foret. The school is fortunate in obtaining the co-operation of Mme. Foret, a woman of wide culture and experience, who lived abroad many years and has traveled extensively.

This French class will meet twice a week, on Monday and Thursday evenings, and will be open to applications both from students in the school and from outsiders. A special feature of the school is the mixed chorus, which meets on Wednesday evenings and is also open to anyone. This chorus is under the direction of Mr. Charles May, one of Brooklyn's best known chorus leaders. One of the greatest lessons of the war is the value of music in maintaining the cheerfulness of the men and the morale of the armies.

The Brooklyn Music School Settlement feels that it is meeting a vital need in offering musical instruction of the best kind and the course for the coming season is both interesting and valuable.
