NEW LEGS TO
SMILING MAX"
Clothing Workers Give SO His
Children May Walk
with Papa"

Brownsville clothing workers have
undertaken to supply their fellow
worker, Smiling Max Garmizy, with
a pair Of artificial legs with which he
can walk about and run his sewing
machine. The subscriptions have come
in so fast that not only are the new
legs assured. but there will also be a
fund that Smiling Max" may put in
the savings bank against emergencies.
Garmizy is not only looking forward
five motherless children out Of orphan
asylums and bring them home. Then
he will go out walking with them Sum
day afternoons like other parents.
Garmizy lost his left leg two years
ago. when II became infected from a
scratch and had 10 be cut off at the
knee. The other limb became infected
also and was cut off at the knee few
weeks ago. That night the members
of the Brownsville local of the Chill
drens Jacket Makers Union were
holding a meeting. and when Garmizy's
blight was made known 1t was decided
at once that he should not lack for the
best legs that man can make.
The union gave $500 there and then.
Eighteen hundred clothing workers
have since pledged an hours worth OF
time each, every hour meaning about
- cents. These pledges amount to
$3.50. II is said the fund may grow to
something like $1,000.
