Boys and Girls Aid Society.
THIS society has been for ten years engaged in active work in San Francisco, and although it does not make much noise, is doing a great amount of good. The object of the society is to take abandoned and destitute children from the streets, the courts, or from prison, to supply their immediate wants, and then secure them homes as soon as suitable ones can be found, and the children are fitted for them. The society does not, however, relax its oversight of the children for whom homes have been found, until assured that they are doing well in their new surroundings. Over 500 children are now under the surveillance of the society. Much more might be done but for lack of means. Contributions may be sent to the Superintendent, E. T. Dooley, 68 Clementina Street, San Francisco.
