 Danlelson's Benevolent society for the purpose of providing free Christ mas dinners and other holiday cheer for the needy of the borough has reor- ganized this year with Rev w D. Fl. Barber chairman and Rev, w. D, Swatffeld secretary and treasurer.
 It has been decided to discard the boiling pot for contributions this year in favor of a system tried out during the holiday season of 1912, when boxes like those used by the Salvation Army were distributed in various stores and brought in several times more revenue than was produced through the use of the boiling pot, which has been located for several years past at this season near the Exchange building.
 Wednesday afternoon committee of the society distributed nearly two score boxes in the stores of Danielson, where they will remain until Christmas, as constant reminders to the happy and afiuent holiday shopping throngs that there are those in the borough who need the aid of the more fortunate of society,
