G.W. MC WHERTER, SUPERINTENDENT. MT. VERNON, OHIO. "TRUE SYMPATHY. WHOSE LITTLE FACES ARE THESE? INMATES OF THE ORPHANS HOME, LOCATED AT MT. VERNON, OHIO. BRIGHT FACES! PRETTY, INTELLIGENT CHILDREN! VERY MUCH SO! MANY SUCH CHILDREN IN THE STATE HOMELESS? HUNDREDS OF SUCH! WHAT A PITY! I DO PITTY THEM! HOW MUCH? I HAVE NOT PUT ANY PRICE UPON MY SYMPATHY. IT WILL NOT BE WORTH ANYTHING TO THEM TILL YOU PRICE IT AND PAY THE PRICE. BUT WHEN YOUR PITY IS VALUED AND THE PRICE PAID, IT CAN BE USED FOR THEIR GOOD. AND SOLOMON SAYS "PROV. 19, 17: HE THAT HATH PITY UPON WHICH HE HATH GIVEN WILL HE PAY THEM AGAIN." WHY WERE THESE PICTURES TAKEN? TO RAISE MONEY FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE CHILDREN. DO YOU WISH TO HELP A LITTLE? IF YOU GIVE TWENTY FIVE CENTS OR MORE, YOU CAN KEEP THIS PICTURE." THE WORK IS SUPPORTED BY CHARITY, AND IS NOT SECTARIAN, AND HOMELESS CHILDREN ARE ADMITTED FROM ANY PART OF THE COUNTRY. SLIGHT TRIM
