Mia* Crlmm stated that at the present day nnd time n life of train ing was considered necessary for such work and that she could hardly explain the pathos of the situation. "The children seem to have ■ lately no time for pleasures. Their whols time la given up to these atreet meetings, to prayer and to work In the Institution."

Mr. and Mrs. Harwell Tried Before the Recorder. Evidence, In Its trend strongly sug gesting that the “Memorial Orphan age” nt 62 and 64 McDaniel street ha» been run more for mercenary than charitable purposes, was given In the recorder’s court Saturday afternoon when Mrs. Ida M. Harwell, manager of the Institution, her husbund, J. R. Harwell, three of their assistants and 24 <;lili<1rc*n appeared op the charge of blocking the public thoroughfares with out permit and to show cause Vhy the children shoulcFnot be placed In a state Institution. After several flours were taken up In testimony, Acting Recorder W. D.

The first case called was that of blocking the streets. Much testimony of minor Interest was given and Coun cilman Ellis asked Mr. Harwell wheth er he would promise not to appear again on the streets In meeting with the children until proper permits were obtained. Mr. Harwel side-stepped this proposition, claiming that he was only a manager and agent for his wife, who was the real bond of the Institution. The judge then attempted to dicker with “the real head of the Institution.” Out Mrs. Harwell also side-stepped “Must Consult the Lord First.” ‘I don’t know whether I can promise that or not,” said Mrs. Harwell, then after meditation, during which time the Inspiration doubtteus cams to her, she ontinued, “I must consult the Lord about thl* matter.
