Connie & Sue (1935)

Here are two sisters, Connie, age 1, and Sue, age 7, of Missouri, both born club-footed, their feet so badly deformed they could not walk until the Capper Foundation had them straightened.  A letter from their grandmother tells of the wonderful change brought about in the girls.  The “dime shower” to help other little unfortunates as these two were, is still open.  A dime for every member of the family, as a thank offering for health, is the plan.
