              <text>When clubwomen encountered children in poorhouses and jails, they saw future paupers and criminals.  The 1891 children’s illustration below depicts the doomed trajectory of troublesome children. The CWC tried to intervene in the process and place juvenile children in safe, comfortable homes with the hope of steering youth toward productive and respectable lives.  In the 1902 Report of the Reform Department of the Chicago Woman’s Club, Mary Plummer asserted that “it is the earnest desire and a large part of the work of this Committee to relieve the Poor House of every child, which can be placed preferably in homes, or, failing, in suitable institutions.”</text>
