^jpHREE times as many people leave money for


animal welfare in their wills than do for child welfare. More money is always given


for the R.S.P.C.A. than for the N.S. P.C.C.. people are usually eager to guy a flag when it is for animals, but not so keen when it is for children.


Many people think th a t because there arc such valuable people as h e al th visitors and nurses and doctors a t child welfare clinics. as well as schools, nursery schools, and th e heal th service, th a t children a re not neglected in Britain a n d there is very l i t t le need for money to help care for needy children.

c lT} niore than 150 countries will gradually join in forming a ° ‘

own difficulties they thought of others in like conditions and prayed for them also. By the middle of the 19th century a definite trend towards


united prayer was evident. In 1887 leading women o f different denominations each sent a Call to Prayer to the women of their churches asking them to set aside one day for special prayer for all home and foreign missionary work. It was at this time that the first Friday in Lent was chosen. More countries joined in. Britain coming into the movc-
