LEG DECKED FOR CHRISTMAS.
Forced to Keep Injured Limb in Air
Boy Uses It for Tree.

BOSTON. December 2s.-Oddest Of all
the Christmas trees in Boston was that
decorated for Thomas kerwin, aged
seven years, patient at the City Hos
pital.
The nurses there also give Thomas
credit for being the bravest little fellow
in the city. The boy recently suffered a
fracture of the right femur. and the leg
must be kept in a plaster cast. To keep
the muscles stretched the boys leg is
held, up vertically by an iron frame with
weights.
For five weeks the child must be in this
position. Because he does not complain,
although he suffers. the nurses credit him
with unusual fortitude. His Christmas
tree yesterday was the broken leg and its
surrounding framework. Thomas thought
his leg, held in the air, marred the Christ
mas decorations OF the children's ward, SO
he had the nurses embellish it with color
ed papers, tinsel and Christmas greenery.
