Text :

...women with several children who are fighting against the cold, hard fact that it is next to impossible for a mother to support more than two children unaided. The day's outing gives her fresh courage to face that fight against the dreaded institution for little Ted and eight-year old Mamie. Boys are passed who help the mother in the fight. Sickly children, too young to know that it is all about, are taken, too, by courtesy, not because they get any fun perhaps, but because their lives need saving.
