The ring was just as welcome as cash;
1t was sold, and the proceeds went into
the Christmas fund. A man passed
along and dropped into one OF the pots
a silver cuff button. Perhaps he had
found II somewhere or had lost its
mate. In all probability II was of no
value TO him His giving It was no
sacrifice. Yet 1t was turned into 10
cents selling as old silver. and the
fund was enriched to that extent.

officers say also that from time to time
they find counterfeit coin dollars and

As a matter OF fact, the Salvation
Army acts merely as agent in this
