Many Unfortunate UrChinS in
Need of Clothing and Shoes
as Well as Toys.
By EUelyn Wren

The Christmas Editor opened a queer
missive in his stack Of mail today. The
envelope was worn and soiled and adj
dressed in penciled scrawl, but a
dollar bill dropped out of It, with this
little note:
Dear Friend: l was saving this
money her uncle give her for my
little Annie's Christmas present.
She wanted a doll buggy But An
ME died last week and I know she'd
like to have her dollar go for some
other little girls Christmas. Please
buy a doll buggy for . baby four
years old. Your friend.
The Christmas editor copied the ad-
dress and folded the letter carefully
and put it in his inside pocket, with a
handful of other treasures which keep
his coat always buging. Then he
tossed the dollar bill to me.
GO out and buy that doll carriage
now" he said. And please see that it
goes to little girl just as near this
Anni9s age as you can find
Ono Of Many Touching Appeals.
Then he made amends for his lapse
into emotion by raking the office boy
over the Goals. turning down book
agent with unnecessary abruptness and
plunging into a bunch of work, And
that's only one Of the touching letters
he has received since the Empty Stock
ing Fund was opened.
But none Of these missives has been
a begging letter The Georgian has a
long list of homes where there would
be no gifts were it not for the Empty
Stocking Fund, but none Of this infor-
nation came from children or parents
The Associated Charities, working in
it's usual course, has made note Of
home after home where even the neces-
stiles Of life are lacking and where
there could not possibly be money spent
on toys. The Charities has all it can

SHOE PRICES liked.
The So Ones viii Cost So This Fall,
Dealers Say.

Chicago, July 19.-Shoes of all grades

Chicago dealers, the automobile is to
blame for the increase.
Shoes which have been purchased in
the past for s. will cost this fall Sc.
The advance in all lines will be similar
about 20 per cent, 1t is said.
''Since January 1, 1905" said one dealer
last night, the price of leather has in
creased Y per cent The price of shoes
has been raised from time to time to
keep pace with the increased cost of pro-
duction but now another substantial boost
must be made in the price, and we have
notified our patrons.
THE principal cause for the advance is
the popularity of the automobile. 1t is
not generally known hoy many sides of
leather are used daily in the manufac-
ture of the automobile, but it is something
enormous. The uses for leather appear
to be increasing daily while the supply

on the report.

Cheapest Thing insThis Countr

Vast sums of money are spent on

and the farmers womenfolk are
worked to the limit of endurance

conservation of their5usefulness Los
ing a COW would be, a. serious matter
in the farmers estimation. But he
can get another wife or another hired
man without spending any consider
able lump sum of money for either.
Men are worked in the mills until
they DROP worn out, body and SOUL
when they're less than forty years old
an age when their employers still
consider themselves young men. There
are always more ignorant immigrants
to be had.
Women and girls are worked out
in factories and sweatshops, becoming

they die? Who cares if health and
strength fail while they are still young
in years? There are always plenty
more willing to do the work.
There are men and women who,
when they enter their various occu-
pations, are bright, quick, full of
ideas, assets to their employers. But
does the employer think of conserv-
ing this good material for any lengthy
period? Does he so arrange the work

mature years as in their youth?
Not as {. rule. The. average idea is
to get all that's possible out of an
employee in as short a time as posi-
ole: then fire him for a fresh one.
The conservation of forests, of wa
terways, of the country's other nat
ural resources-these were all thought
of before the conservation of human
ity; and the construction of human
ity is so closely interviewer with the
conservation of the employee that the
one can not be- dealt with apart from
the other.
Something must be done so that
the comfort and profit of the few
shall not be earned by the suffer
ing and the snuffins out of the
many. ~ -
