Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Proceedings of Eleventh Annual Conference on Child Labor, Vol. 1: At Washington, D. C., January 5th and 6th, 1915 I said, "I am poor this year, and the War is hard, I can not give to the things I love to aid. So this must go, and this, in the great discard, And the children must suffer too, I am much afraid." But I didn´t know how they cry in the night, And pluck at your skirts and mourn, How they cry with the voice of your heart´s delight, And the faces your dead have worn. There are boys that work all night in the crystal dust, There are girls who spin all day at the whirring wheels, And how shall I face my dead with my broken trust, When the "Inasmuch as ye did it not," reveals? I couldn´t bear their cry in the night, The clutch of their little hands. I must do my best with the widow´s mite To loosen the iron bands.
