titled to- God bless them.'
He then thanked the many people who
contributed to the fund which enabled
the army to provide IL happy Christmas
this year for many in Cleveland who
otherwise would not have had it.
Their giving was not charity" he
said. 1T was the overfiowing of kind
ness i'll the hearts of the people. To such
sentiment we look for the future of our
city. our State and our country aud the
civilization of the world. | wish You all
Il happy feast.
'Gcd bless the Senator" shouted Col
