Over 100. in
Christmas
Stocking
Club

near Juniors: One year ago today,
tho 1910 Christmas Stocking CLUB naa
on1v fifty members Today, the 1911
Christmas Stocking club has over 100
members. We hope to have 300 mem
bers by Thursday, Dec. 81, anu We
think we will. Most every one seems
to be interested in the christmas
Stocking club. We>wish we could say
every one is interested. In comparing
the 1910 list with the 1911 list, we md
We have many new names. We ex-
pect ell the old members to join. You
all know the Courier Junior was the
first paper to have Christmas Stock
ing club. 1t was organized five years
ago in this Office, and it grows bigger
each year. Since ,our. club was started
many other papers have followed in the
Courier Juniors footsteps, and we are
happy to say have met with great sue
cess.
The purpose Of the club is to help
little c. ldren at Christmas time,
whose parents fail to tell Santa Claus
Of their existence. Then again If We
wish to give presents at Christmas
time and do not want our friends to
know from whom the gifts come, Santa
Claus will deliver them for us if we
ask him. You all know that Santa
Claus does not always give useful
presents, such as stockings, mittens,
so the members of the Christmas
Stocking club can supply these needs.
All one has to do to become a member
OF the club is to give nice pair of
well lied stockings or small amount
of cash. The stockings, of course, are
preferred. <s.
Christmas is beautiful season,
beautiful because it is a time to make
little children happy. Little Ruth
Eleanor Daggett, member of all the
Courier Junior Stocking clubs. tells
why wescelebrate Christmas in the fol-
lowing pretty little story:
Long ago some shepherds were
watching their sheep Suddenly a..
great light shone out upon the dark
ness, and an angel appeared in the
heavens and said: ,,is.55..,.A. |.2l
BE you not frightened, for Christ
was born tonight. Follow the star.
into Bethlehem, where in a manger
lowly, little babe SO holy, came to
this world below"
so saying 1T 'dlsappeared. and in its
place star came into view, and the
shepherds followed it into Bethlehem,
where the babe lay in it's mothers
arms i
They fell upon their knees to wor-
ship, then arose and gave their pres
ents. This was the twenty-fifth of
December. and ever since then the
Christians call 1t christmas" and give
presents to their loved ones.

At regular intervals these secret agents are each visited in turn by a travelling agent-usually prOmi- nent detective from Berlin. who col lects their reports and makes payments.
