point Is made that as the proposed con-

An official of the department remarked
that while grade crossings may be highly
objectionable to the citizens of Southeast

to quietly submit to the use of the Is

TO HELP MESSENGER BOY.
Raising Money to Send Him to Sana-
forum for CONSERVATIVES.

Acknowledgment was made TO-DAY by
the Associated Charities of responses to
It's recent appeal in the case of a mes
senger boy. The acknowledgment states
that this young man. who is in the first
stages of tuberculosis and in need of
sanatorium treatment, had nobody but a
generous public to appeal to. His father
and mother died of tuberculosis His
brother died of the same dread disease.
All his life he has been working hard. At
night he went to school. and equipped
himself for more responsible position
Step by step he rose until finally he oc-
cupied one of the highest positions that
the office in which he labored could give
him. Just as success was browning these
efforts. he was seized with the plague
that had carried three members of his
family to the grave. The strain the
worry and the work had left their marks
upon him. A kind-hearted doctor became
interested. Now there is hope for per-
manent recovery.
Any further money that is sent should
be addressed 'the special golden book
fund and marked for the messenger
boy.
