Dennis the Menace Takes a Poke at Poison
Description
An account of the resource
This giveaway comic book seeks to educate children and their parents about the poisonous nature of many items commonly found in the home. It urges parents to "Poison Proof Your Home."<br /><br />A publication created by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, Food and Drug Administration.<br />HHS Publication No. (FDA) 81-7005. <br /><br />Text on back cover:<br /><br />"Most products are made to look attractive so people will buy them--even products that can be poisonous. But things made attractive for consumers are also attractive to children. Many poisonings that occur involve children who are too youg and innocent to 'know better.' Children often can't recognize danger signals such as label warnings, strange odors, or peculiar tastes. Actually many poisonous things are attractive to children because the taste or smell GOOD, such as lemon scented furniture polish."

Spider-Man and Power Pack [National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse comic book]
Description
An account of the resource
Marvel giveaway comic book produced in cooperation with the National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse. Children are urged to tell a trusted adult if something has happened, and to know that there are phone numbers to call if you need help. While speaking to one young boy whose babysitter has abused him, Spider-Man reveals that he too was abused as a child. <br /><br />Letter inside front cover is signed by Anne H. Cohn, D.P.H., Executive Director National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse:<br /><br />"The purpose of this book is to teach you how to protect yourself from sexual abuse and what to do if it happens to you. I shows you that even people you know and trust can touch you in ways or in places that feel uncomfortable or yukky or just not right. Or, they can make you touch them in private places. And this book tells you that if this happens, it's not your fault--you can say no--and there is help out there."<br /><br />Back cover: "The National Education Association recognizes this publication as a viable attempt to education children about the problem of child sexual abuse."

Jewish Children’s Home Tell-A-Vision
Description
An account of the resource
Details from a brochure, Jewish Children’s Home Tell-A-Vision, highlighting the founding of the Isidore Newman School for the children of the Jewish Children’s Home and of New Orleans. <br /><br />In the 1840s and 1850s a series of yellow fever epidemics in New Orleans brought forth a need for homes for destitute widows and children. During this period, private and religious groups established a number of orphanages and asylums. <br /><br />In 1855 the Jewish community of New Orleans organized the “Jewish Orphans’ Home,” as a part of the Hebrew Benevolent Society, and on March 14, 1855, the state granted a charter to the institution. The original Home was on Chippewah Street, but in 1887 it moved to a new building at 5342 St. Charles Avenue. <br /><br />The name of the organization has changed several times: from April 6, 1880 to February 28, 1905, it was “The Association for the Relief of Jewish Widows & Orphans,” from February 28, 1905, to February 4, 1924, “The Association for the Relief of Jewish Widows & Orphans of New Orleans,” and after February 4, 1924, the “Jewish Children’s Home.” While the legal name remains the Jewish Children’s Home, the organization has operated as the Jewish Children’s Home Service since April 1958.

Women in the Home [suffrage handbill]
Description
An account of the resource
Handbill published by the New York State Woman Suffrage Association. <br /><br />Excerpts: <br /> <br />"WOMEN IN THE HOME <br /><br />We are forever being told that the place for women is in the HOME. Well, so be it. But what do we expect of her in the home? Merely to stay in the home is not enough. She is a failure unless she does certain things for the home. She must make the home minister, as far as her means allow, to the health and welfare, moral as well as physical, of her family, and especially of her children. She, more than anyone else, is held responsible for what they become. <br />SHE is responsible for the cleanliness of her house. <br />SHE is responsible for the wholesomeness of the food. <br />SHE is responsible for the children's heath. <br />SHE, above all, is responsible for their morals, for their sense of truth, of honesty and decency, for what they turn out to be. <br /><br />How Far Can the Mother Control These Things?" <br /><br />Handbill goes on to argue that the elected city officials control many of the conditions that threaten children and families. These officials are elected by men, who must therefore share in the responsibility for these unsafe conditions.<br /><br />"In fact, MEN are responsible for the conditions under which the children live, but we hold WOMEN responsible for the results of those conditions. If we hold women responsible for the results, must we not, in simple justice, let them have something to say as to what these conditions shall be? There is one simple way of doing this. Give them the same means that men have. LET THEM VOTE.<br /><br />Women are, by nature and training, housekeepers. Let them have a hand in the city's housekeeping, even if they introduce and occasional house-cleaning."

Little Wanderers’ Advocate.
Description
An account of the resource
The first 16 pages of this item describe the origin, mission statement, constitution, and founding board members of the Union Mission and Home for Little Wanderers. <br /><br />Union Mission & Home for Little Wanderers formed by ten Boston businessmen to care for children orphaned by the Civil War. They were inspired by the Howard Mission of New York. <br /><br /><em>The Little Wanderers' Advocate </em><br /><br />Excerpts: <br /><br />p.3 "One Word to the Widowed Mother.<br />Do not send your child to the poor-house. We will take and provide a good home for it. You may know where it is placed and be at liberty to write to it or visit it at proper times. We shall deal with your child as if it were our own." <br /><br />p.5 "What we Propose to Do. <br />Take every child of sorrow, of every age, and feed, clothe, instruct, and thus prepare them for homes, where they shall enjoy all the influences of good society, and thus grow up to become useful men and women. <br />In almost every instance we can place a boy into a home where they have no boy, and a girl where they have no girl. <br />Can we do this? <br />For several years past we have been taking children to homes. We have committees over the West, and in the New England and other States, and receive applications for more children than we can possibly furnish. <br />Conditions: We bind no child to any person; there is no slavery in the matter, all is voluntary between the child and the one who takes it, we reserving the right to remove any child who is not properly treated."<br /><br />p.7 "Soldiers' Children<br />The children of those noble men who have fallen during this unholy rebellion, shall be the objects of peculiar care. They shall be doubly welcome. We owe them a debt that the kindest treatment can never pay. They are not in the strict sense of the word objects of charity, but they have claims upon the public that demand our noblest response. Come to the Union Mission and Home for the Little Wanderers, and what we can do to place you in situations where all that society, friendship and love can do for you will be done. And when the Stars and Stripes shall again wave over this entire land, a grateful people will remember that it was the blood of your fathers that puchased liberty to all, the price of our natonal redemption."
