APPEALS FOR CHRISTMAS
DONATIONS FOR The POOR
Associated Charities Asks AS
sistance in Spreading
Goodwill.
SOME ARE ALREADY WORKING

The Associated Charities of Calumet
through its secretary, Miss Winnifred
Salisbury, is issuing an appeal TO the
charitably inclined in behalf of the
poor OF this district. The appeal is
self explanatory. 1t follows:
Dear Christmas Friends:
In the wonderful sermon preached
con the Mount" so many years ago by
the greatest preacher of them all, one
striking phrase was this: "And if ye
do good to them that do good to ye.
what thank have We? For even sin
ners do the same" Let us not draw
the lines of our Christmas giving too
closely around those bound to us by
ties of blood or friendship, but let us
take into our hearts at this season Of
good will, those others whose lives are
narrow. whose hearts are sore, whose
Christmas cheer is slight
We can tell you of dear old ladies
whose hearts would be made Christ
mas glad" by the simple gift of a half
pound of tea tied up with holly ribbon,
or perhaps a tiny box of candy. There
are mothers whose joy would be great
if they could have help i'm putting one
simple thing into each little stocking
hanging so hopefully empty on Christ
mas eve. There are families who may
have a Merry Christmas dinner Of salt
pork and potatoes but who would be
still merrier if there could be :. few
apples or nuts to have at its close.
Let us work together-our society
cannot use its funds for 'extras'-but
if you will furnish the joy, wen gladly
furnish the names of those who need it.
out of two hundred evenly families
there are at least sixty which We feel
must have something at Christmas
and we are depending on our friends
to arrange it.
Several churches have already asked
for names or have compared their lists
with ours; one little lady has offered
TO look after" ten children; but what
will you do? Let us know soon so that
the last days before Christmas will not
be ones of uncertainty.
Another suggestion: Perhaps you
udNt dutduy utClutu W give 10 Ctl ldiil
poor families which you know are 'all
right without consulting anyone. If
so, so much the better, but do you
know how much good you may do by
just telling us their names so that
there will be no danger of half dozen
others sending to the same ones while
the next neighbor with just as dear
little children may have nothing at all?
Since there is little hope OF making
everyone happy, let us spread the good
times as far as we possibly can and
avoid unnecessary duplication.
We know some families that would
be made wonderfully happy by some
warm blanket or quilts-can't you
spare some? Let us help you i'm your
plans-and a Merry Christmas to you
all-from your

MANY ELKs EXPECTED.
Detroit Estimates 10000 Will Attend
the Grand Lodge Convention.

The Elks' grand lodge convention
next summer is expected to bring to
Detroit the biggest and most repre-
sentative crowd of visitors in the
city's history says the Detroit Free
Press. It is conservatively estimated
that at least 10000 persons will be in
Detroit that week and the value of the
impressions OF the city they carry away
cannot be overestimated. The problem
of looking after them is n big one.
but everyone connected with the work
Is satisfied the results will justify the
hard effort. Approaching what It
means, the Board of Commerce will
join hands with the Elks' executive
committee TO make IL the biggest sue
cess Of the year.
Just as soon as Grand Exalted Rul-
err Sammis selects the grand lodge
headquarters the local hotels will be
able TO make reservations for such
other visitors as they will be able to
shelter The demand already exceeds
the supply as everyone is anxious to
get as near the heart OF the city as
possible. The executive committee is
confident of taking care OF everyone,
however AS soon as the plans are
approved the committee will formu-
late a complete list of all hotels and
rooms and in this way will place all
who apply. Mt. Clemens will be relied
upon to take care of "A large number
and ID is probable several buildings on
the fair grounds will be utilized.
