HELP THE POOR,

Some Letters Which Have Been Received 1t

Nov is a good time for the charitable peo-
pie to give to tine poor" said Chief Clerk Syl-
yester Of the police department to a STAR re-
porter this morning. THE applicants for
assistance are numerous, but the poor fund is
about gone"
Mr.. Sylvester has many letters on file in his
Office either from the poor persons themselves
or from their neighbors. The letters show that
there are many cases of suffering and want
in different parts Of the city.
One letter from South Washington. much
shorter than the average, asked for assistance
in this way.
'Will you please help me to a few groceries
and some clothing? l am in very bad crcum-
stances and have three orphan children"
A citizen looking out for the welfare of q
neighbor just before Christmas wrote:
In aiding the poor on Christmas you can also
send provisions to where there are five small
children. The mother has been sick a few
W. weeks and the father has no work just now.
The lady herself would not ask for anything,
but l am neighbor Of hers. l know
they are in need and are ashamed to ask for
anything. Please send them something
Under recent date a woman wrote: 81 am
compelled to ask you to help me. am quite
SICK" The woman then tells of the doctors
orders for her to remain in the house. Her
rent. she said. was nearly due, and as she could
not live in the street she sgked assistance in
III is with the deepest feeling of a poor
mother, writes another applicant, that am

which has been made worse because of insuffi-
Gent fuel to keep herself and children warm
She concludes by saying that she hopes to get
a. position that has been promised her, SO that
she can provide for her children.
Another woman requests the loan of So to
pay her month s rent IN order to keep her five
little children together. She promised to re-
turn the money soon as her husband secured
work. She said she was sleeping on the floor
where she was and that if taken sick she would
certainly die. She concludes: For Gods sake
please help me to get my rent"
Dozens OF other applications of the same
kind are on file and the police are distributing
what the citizens send to police headquarters
or the police stations.

To stop Pool Selling in MARYLAND

A bill has been introduced in the Maryland
legislature which. if passed, will put out of
existence the one remaining pool-se.ling firm
in the state.
1t is aimed at Lynn 4 Wall, doing business
in Arlington. near Baltimore. Two years ago
a law was enacted forbidding pool selling at
any other place than at race track, and then
only when there was racing. All the pool
rooms in Baltimore at once suspended business
except Lynn Il Wall They leased the half
mile track in Arlington about three miles from
the city. where, by complying with the letter Of
the law, they have been enabled to do business
right along. They secured half dozen platers,
engaged several men as starters and timers
and advertised daily races: While claiming to
sell pools on these races they also made books
on all events throughout the country. They
did a big business. The measure Just intro
duced prohibits pool selling except at agricrfi-
tur.l fairs and legitimate race tracks, and then
only at each OF these fifteen days in the year.
