The Young Helpers' League at the Royal Albert Hall, 1898. Charity event in London. 'Dr. Barnardo; Waifs, from the programme; A case for the Doctor; "Hurrah for good old England. Hurrah for England's Queen; Girls' musical drill; Parade of the Prize Winners; Illustrating Nursery Nonsense: "The North Wind does Blow"; Ba Ba Black Sheep; "Little Bo Peep"; "The Cow jumped over the Moon"; "Old Mother Hubbard"...The Young Helpers' League, which now numbers 17,402 children "from happy homes" in different parts of the world, banded together to aid their less fortunate fellow children, gave its annual entertainment at the Albert Hall last Saturday afternoon. The children from Dr. Barnardo's Homes, with which the workings of the League are primarily concerned, went through a varied programme of games and exercises, including the enactment in dumb-show of a series of nursery rhymes. The number of purses subsequently received by the Duchess of Somerset from the assembled visitors sufficiently proved the value of such an entertainment as a bond of union between the members of the League and those whom it seeks to benefit'. From "Illustrated London News", 1898.
