arose to give a contribution to the pro-
gram.
Under the direction of Mrs. +. NJ.
Wheelan, their teacher, the children
have been taught to tell the story of
the Christ child in a way that would
put to shame some of their American
brothers and sisters.
Each one took some part in the pro-
gram. There were recitations and
songs all telling of the birth of the
baby Jesus, who came to save tn"
world. Laura Sing marched to the
platform as proud as any little queen
and told of 1.-THE Christ Child" Their
all the children walked to the front
and together they repeated 1.-THE Story
of the Wise Men" word for word as
Il appears IN the Bible. Not in pigeon
English, but with clear, sweet ac-
cent. Then they sang. All the songs
carried out the same story, and they
were sung in excellent time and every
child knew the lines perfectly.
When each one had taken part the
big tree was relieved of it's burden OF
dolls, books, games and the hundred
and one other things which American
children love. Then camo the bags OF
candy, and after that the big event OF
the afternoon. -
At this point the children were
breathless with excitement. Mrs

CONTRACTORS ASK RELEASE
Men Who Bid on Reno Street Inn
provement Say They Made Mis-
take in Specifications

The trials and tribulations of the
board of public works over the Inn
provement of Reno street, from First
to Diamond, are not yet ended, al
though a few weeks ago the board
awarded the contract for the work for
the third time and breathed a sigh OF
relief as the members believed that the
prayers of the property owners on the
street were about to be answered.
The last contract for the work was
awarded to Mccoy and Thomas. Yes
terday these contractors appeared be-
fore the board and asked to be re-
lieved from their obligation, as they
had figured too low. They declared
they had based their figures on a previ-
Gus advertisement for the work that
had called for cobb1e stone cutters,
while under the last specifications ce-
ment cutters were demanded.
The case developed into war of
words between street contractors. r.
H. McCray, who secures many Jobs
from the city, is the owner of some
property fronting on Reno street and
he declared the work should be con-
tinued in spite of the mistake In the
figures. contending that the error was
the fault of the contractors. He said
that the prices for which Mccoy and
Thomas had contracted to do the work
were fair and reasonable, in which con-
tention he was upheld by City Engi-
neer Stafford.
The board took the case under ad-
visement, but did not promise the con-
tractors any relief.
This is the third time that the con-
tract for work on this street has been
let. On two previous occasions the en-
tire proceedings were found to be
Illegal

H0B0S STEAL OVERCOATS
Homeless Wanderers Freeze Out ON
Park Benches and Seek
Warm Coverino 1a

The hobo who shivers all night long
upon bench in the park or crowds
| himself into a hole in a pile of lumber
or the more fortunate one who is able
to sneak into box car has given
the people another notice that he is
alive. This type of homeless wanderer
has not committed any serious crime,
but has simply helped himself to some
other mans overcoat in which to wrap
himself up to keep out the cold that
has been biting more seYrely the last
few nights.
Three men report that their coats
were taken Thursday night. Gus
Henkes' coat was taken while he was
at his work in his boiler shop, 119
Redondo street. Somebody walked
away with Carl Schen'S top coat while
he was engaged in pool game, and
coat belonging to +. M. Warrington
was taken from his room at 1915 South
Hope street.

hall and it was crowded with people
who had heard of the exercises and
wanted to see the children.
Thirty little boys and girls, some of
them so tiny that they can do little
more than lisp out few words. were
seated in rows around a large Christ
mas tree glittering with many candles,
bright tinsel, popcorn strings and
everything else which adorns the Gus
tomary Christmas tree.
Every little queue was oiled until it
shone and was then deposited in the
pocket of a brocaded satin Jacket
There We're jackets of every shade:
Bright yellow ones, rose-colored ones,
and many more Of green and blue.
Just a few of the children appeared
In American dress.
There were the Sings-Henry. john
son, Garlic and Laura Sing. They ali
wore American dress and seemed very
proud of it, too. Mrs. Sing was there
proud and happy, with hair dressed

both occasions. Miss Mathewson init
