BY A GOOD FELLOW.

I told you yesterday about some
OF the things we Good Fellows
were going to accomplish on
Christmas; now I'm going to tell
you something about the kids, and
the reason they will be happy when
they find that Santa Claus hasn't
forgotten them.
A little fellow walked into the
office this morning and showed me
his shoes. They were worn
through until he had to wear rags
in the bottom to keep his feet off
thee ground. At the side, the
shoes were broken loose from what
remained of the sole, and the en-.
tire effect Of the dilapidated foot
wear was very similar to that pro-
duced by the comic artists when
they give us picture of typical
Weary Waggles.
And bad as his shoes were, little
Willie-that was his name-told
me that he had a younger brother
and tiny sister whose shoes were
In even worse condition. Thanks
to the kindness of certain Good
Fellow of this town l was able to
tell him that Santa would see to il
that those WORKOUT shoes were re
placed by good, substantial ones
And there is family out on Ce.

are worrying because mama has
told them that Santa won't be
there this year. 1t happens, how

to me, instead of writing a letter.
Her folks live out on East Pacific.
They won't have a Christmas I'M
less the Good Fellow who is as
signed to their case makes good
but they'll get the Christmas all
right.
She has five little brothers and
sisters, and she's only 49, She told
me about the little ones, and never
mentioned herself, until l insisted
on taking her name also.
Then boy writes like this:
Dear Mr.. Good Fellows. I am a
boy of IA years old. l am lame and
will be lame the rest of my life, but
/ get around with crutches all the
time. and l have six brothers and
two sisters. They are all younger

dear Good Fellows will remember
US, for our papa has been out of
work all the fall and he says that
dear old Santa Claus will not
come this way unless the Good
Fellows play Santa Claus for us. !

more. So goodby. Lloyd

The discussions of the proposed

any serious defects in the docu.

vious article, the charter is a COM
promise measure IN some of It's pro-
visions. and the objections that
have been raised by the opponents
of the charter were nearly all
threshed out by the committee. An
attempt has been made by some
critics of the charter to show that
the recall would not be effective,

Bartram defended the case on the
ground that when the time that the

he contended that they had not
