IF Santa Claus Were Poor

I'll bet when Mister Santa Claus was just kid like
He got his reglar presents off regular Christmas tree;
I'll bet he had big fine house to stay in through
An shoes an overcoas an clio that KEEP him
Because if he had been like know that he be
To make visit every year to children that poor.
If he could baby that never had no toys
Perhaps he'd hold other little boys
That get many every year, leave just two
10 give the kid chance to plaJ ike babies do;
But don't spose he'll do it, Cause he way
Things with kids whose Chris any day
That drum seen downtown today do not need bad
An it's the with other things had
But gee! my little sister, it is tough hear cry
Because she cannot have doll an can't tell her why
guess it's worryin, that don't help at all
Because this Teller rich when he was small
He never had to stand outside great big lighted store
kind of holdin back the tears feeling mighty sore
To them an trains bout the fun
That other kids going to have while
wouldn't wish man bad luck, but blue an cold
wish that he was like when He years old

WOMAN'S HEART
Child Note to Santa Claus Re-
suits in Lady Wanting to
Play the Part.
ASKS ARGUS FOR NAME
Committee Will Trace Little Girl and
Furnish Her Address as Is
Requested.
ASKS ARGUS FOR NAME

The letters to Santa Claus" which
arrive daily at The Argus Office and
some of which are printed nightly in
the paper, are responsible for many
contributions TO the fund for the poor
children and also for requests for
names of children to whom people can
play Santa Claus themselves. A Rock
Island lady wrote to The Argus Santa
Claus yesterday and enclosed one of
the touching little letters which was
printed previously with the request
that the chiId's full name and address
be furnished her so that she can pro-
vide for its Christ mas wants. The lit
tie child-it is a girl-says in her let
ter that her papa is in Watertown and
that her mamma works hard for a liv-
ing, and that a kind Santa Claus is her
only hope Of getting the doll that she
wants for Christmas. The commit
tee will spare no effort to locate the
child and furnish it's name to the kind
lady who was touched by the letter.
LETTERS TELL STORIES.
The many letters to Santa Claus,
some of them addressed to the north
pole and some to fairyland, are turned
over TO The Argus by the postal au-
thorities. The notes tell heart stories
that would touch stone. Imagine, if
you can, being the parent OF a tot
which, in common with other young
sters, wants TO be remembered by
Santa Claus, and conscious that you
will be unable to provide it with a sin
gle Christmas present Think of the
anguish You would suffer. There are
several hunEred such parents in Rock
Island who would be compelled to
spend Christmas listening TO the heart
broken sobs Of disappointed, disillus-
Toned children, were it not for the good
fellows who unite, through The Argus

LARGE AUDIENCE
HEARS RATHVON
Noted Christian Science Lee.
turer Delivers Discourse
at Illinois Theatre.
EXPLAINS ITS DOCTRINES
Faith Is Not Antasonistie but Com
Elementary to Religion, Says
the Speaker.

An audience Of over 1900 gathered
last night at the Illinois theatre where
William r. Rathvon, c. s. B. OF Den
yer, a member OF the board of lee
tureship Of the First Church OF Christ.
Scientist Of Boston, Mass, delivered
an eloquent and masterful address,
dealing with the various articles Of
tie Christian Science faith. The lee
tjre was given under the auspices of
the Christian Science church of this
city and an invitation was extended
rot only to Christian Scientists but
to the general public as well. Mr..
Rathvon is a polished orator. and his
statements are forceful and convinc-
irg The speaker was introduced by
Attorney J. X. Scott Of this city. In
Tart Mr.. Rathvon's lecture was as fol-
lows.
BIBLE Is TEXT BOOK.
Christian Science has but one text
book, Science and Health with Key to
the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy
II has been asserted that Christian
Scientists place their text book above
the bible as the guide to righteousness.
No one can honestly make this allega-
zion who has read the book carefully.
for on page 497 of Science and Health
Ere printed these words, the first Of a
Series OF tenets Of our religion: AS
Edherents Of truth we take the inspired
word OF the bible as our sufficient guide
10 eternal life What more emphatic
and explicit negation of such a charge
could be demanded?
ORIGIN OF TRUTHS.
The truths of Christian Science do
not originate in the book Science and
Health. They find expression there but
their origin Is in God They have al
ways existed and will forever exist.
What effect. then, il may be asked.
does the study of this book have upon
those who have previously been bible
students? Does II supplant the bible
In their reverence and admiration? Is
the book OF books less precious 10
them than before? The answer is,
no" On the other hand Science and
Health harmonizes many seeming in
conEruities in the bible which have long
perpleXed layman and theologian: il
explains apparent contradictions: il
disCloses unexpected riches: it gives
new significance to favorite passages,
and brings neglected ones into favor.

SECRETARY KAIGHN
ADDRESSES "Y" MEN

R. P. Kaighn of New York City,
one of the secretaries of the interna-
tional committee of the Y. NJ. c. A,
spent today in the city in conference
with the local association men. Mr..
Kaighn is connected with the indus
trial department of the work and his
field OF endeavor is among men and
boys employed in industrial occupa-
tons.
At noon today the local board OF
directors of the Y. NJ. c. A. and some
Of its workers met at the Rock Island
club for luncheon and to hear a talk
by Mr.. Kaighn on the work of the local
association. The speaker outlined poll
cies that can be followed with profit
in the new building and also gave
many valuable suggestions Mr.. Kaighn

Santa Claus Fund, TO provide for such
as these. All are not yet provided for,
however, and there is room for many
more people to enlist their sympathies
and some of their money in the cause.
HOW TO DO 1T.
Two ways for helping the poor chill
dren of Rock Island enjoy Christmas
present themselves. The easier way is
to forward cash contribution to The
Argus Santa Claus Fund committee
The money will be turned over to Miss
Margaret Giles, visiting nurse, and
Miss Dina Ramser, charity worker
who will purchase toys, candy, nuts,
and various kinds of presents and ar
range for their distribution among the
children who are not on Santa Claus
regular list.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1912-12-13

The other way, and by far the more
enjoyable, is to undertake to play
Santa Claus yourself Just write to
the committee for names of any num-
Der of children you may desire. and
the committee will do its best to see
that your request is complied with
You can purchase for these children
anything in the way of Christmas
cheer that you see fit and deliver 1t to
the youngsters according to your own
desire, either as a real Santa Claus or
through the medium Of special deliv-
cry boy or otherwise.
Either way you select will mark you
as a goodfellow, one who follows the
edict of the Lord, to love thy fellow
man, and who appreciates that it is
better to give than to receive.

THE LAW OF THE SEA.
When first stormborn wind was
hurled
Against sheepskin sail,
Twas heard from primal men, when
curled
The waves in shrilling gale;
And 1t was echoed down the years
When fate has done its worst;
1t rises when the first boat clears;
Women and children first
Vain is the gold in shaking hands
Vain are the pleas of pride;
One law there is, whose iron bands
Must cling, though Death abide;
In vain the fear that knows no
bounds
In vain have towards cursed;
Clear as law Of old it sounds:
Women and children first"
All honor, then, to those who keep
That knightly phrase alive
Who gaze untroubled on the deep
And calm the souls that strive:
All honor. then, to those who cried,
Before salt seas immersed:

$4,000 VOLTS DID
NOT KILL At ONCE
Jerome Citizen Lived for
"a Hours After the
Terrific Shock

PRESCOTT. May Particulars of
the shocking death OF George Henri
gan which occurred at Jerome a few
days ago by being electrocuted and
burned in a frightfal manner, have
been received in this city. The I'M
fortunate young man climbed mp into
the station where the high tension
wires were hanging and in some man
ner not known, received a shock es-
timated at 10000 volts, which passed
through his body. As strange as it
may seem, his death did not occur
instantly from the terrific voltage re-
ceived, but he fingered for nearly "a
hours before he uccumbed.
The supposition is that he was IA
tally burned, and that the voltage
which penetrated his body did not
cause his death. The dead man was
helper at the station and had no
knowledge OF electrical conditions
The point where he was electrocuted
is never approached except by men
trained in the calling, and who are ex-
lremely careful not TO expose them
selves TO dangers always imminent.
Mr.. Hennigan was about % years OF
age.
