A family of orphans. There is no father and no mother but the family is happy just the same. All eight of these children returned to Poland with the great influx of refugees. None of them had parents or relatives so they banded together into one family for mutual protection. Now they are living in Vilna and are regular callers at the American Red Cross distribution center where hundreds of these orphans are given clothing and medical care
