sick babies send In h you can AFFORD.
THE EVENING STAR Free Ice and
Sick Baby Outing Fund has struck
such popular favor now that voluu--
tary contributions are coming in, with
out any solicitation, with letters Of tbs
highest commentator.
Among the contributors to what has
been called the greatest charity that
Newark a ever had are some Of the
most prominent citizens and business
houses of the city.
In sending a check for SO. William
T. Plum, of 900 High street, writes:
Enclosed find check for the Sick
Babies Outing. I think this Is a worthy
cause n should be helped along"
What $40 VIII Do. y
Perhaps Mr.. Plum did not know tha6,
his $40 will supply ten destitute moths
ers and their sick babies with Ice for
at least ten days, or it will take those
ten mothers and their suffering little
children on a magnificent sea. trip to
Coney Island; will lake them into
every attraction in Luna Park; will
give the mothers at least q day of
wholesome, substantial food, and their
babies all the fresh, rich milk they can
drink.
There is a whole lot of satisfaction
in knowing that you can do that much
real good with a ten-dollar bill.
The Lincoln Mutual Aid Association,
organized nearly twenty years ago,
sends this letter with its check for So:
Enclosed find check for SIS toward
your worthy cause, sincerely hoping
for success in your undertaking.. The
members of the Lincoln Mutual Aid As
ISOLATION wish to start the ball a-roll-
ing for similar organizations to fol-
low. Yours respectfully,
G.. A. SCHMIDT, Treasurer.
Good Use for Every Cent.
The Free Ice and Sick Baby Outing
Fund can use every penny sent in.
There is no reason why every ailing
baby in Newark should not have all
the ice it wants all summer, and II Is
probable that many excursions for the
sick little one and their mothers will
be taken to Coney Island over the deem
sea route, which brings back health.
The more money in the fund the more
ice and the more sea trips 1t promises
to be a great summer for the sick
babies and their overworked and worm
out mothers. r. 1aas e-s
Another member of the Humane So
ciety sends this letter:
Newark. N. J.
Dear Sir-Enclosed please find fifty
cents, which 1 would like to extend
toward the sick babies fund. 1t is only
a small sum, but~it is all that I can
spare at Present. Hoping others will
show their ability to help mothers with
sick babies, 1 remain, yours respect
fully, LILLE DIETzE.

Birmingham, Ala, september g.
The convention of United Mine Work
ers of Alabama today formally ratified
the action of the national officers of
the American Federation in calling off
the coal miners strike.
The session was executive through

been put back to work on the same
pay that they received before the

The AUTOS TODAY

The ladies of the U. D. c. have
charge of the auto line today and are
being literally patronized.
Whatever these ladies undertake
they always make it a success, and the
money they receive always goes to a

The people should give them a lib

of the cause, but for the recreation as
we'll.
The autos are decorated with the
