Decrease FREE TIME
ON BAGGAGE STORAGE
Pennsylvania Railroad Will
Allow Only "a Hours
Over Holidays
RAILROADERS
TOO MUST PAY

A new ruling affecting Wilmington
ians and other patrons travelling ON the
Pennsylvania railroad, became effective
yesterday. decreasing the free time
limit on baggage left in storage at pas
senger stations, over sunday or in case
of legal holiday, from As TO q hours.
Storage charges will be collected in the
future on baggage left more than ~
hours, according to the rates OF the
company.
The substance of the old baggage rul-
ing was rs follows: Articles received
between the hours OF noon Saturday aud
noon Sunday were held without addi
tional charge until noon Monday. The
rule also applied 10 legal holidays. The
table of storage charges for baggage OF
the Pennsylvania railroad is as follows;
For q homs or less, after the usual
free period is 10 cents; for each add.
tioual "a hours or less, 10 cents; maxi
mum charge for month, 81; each SUBJ
sequent day or fraction thereof after
one month, 10 cents; maximum charge
tor two months, s.
With the filing of tariffs for the stor-
age of baggage another courtesy is lost
to railroad men. Once the tariffs are
approved by the Interstate Commerce
Commission. railroad employees will
have TO pay storage rate just as other
patrons of a railroad company.
For many years trainmcn and other
employees were permitted to store bag
gage and packages Tor any length OF
time without charge. All that was nee.
cssary was to present a pass or card at
the baggage or storage rooms showing
that they were railroad employees. Re-
cent rulings by tho commission make il
necessary for all railroads TO charge
everybody.
The new tariffs also require that
strict attention be given to time stor-
age. Frequently employees in baggage
rooms clipped OIL extra charges whom
baggage was not called for in IS hours

CHRISTMAS FOX
POOR ASSURED

Yes, there Is going to be a merry
Christmas for everyone in Perth Am
boy this year. 1t was hardly to be
supposed that we would go to such
great pains to provide Christmas
cheer for the war children of Europe
and at the same time forget all about
the poor at home. That is not Perth
Amboy's way of doing things. We are
not a wealthy city, as far as the in
diyiduals are concerned, bW' what we
have we are willing TO share with
those less fortunate,/ This has been
demonstrated time and again, and it.
is being emphasized most forcibly in
this appeal being made to provide a
Christmas treat for the children who
otherwise would have to go without,
for this year at Least
1t Is particularly gratifying to find
the children responding to the ap-
peal. Christmas is decidedly a chill
dren's festival. They know best of
all how to appreciate 1t, and If those
who do not know what it is to have
Santa Claus pass by without stopping
should be impressed with the fact that
there are little boys and girls right
here in Perth Amboy who will not
share in the Christmas joys unless all
help, we know they will be willing to
contribute their mite. Not to know
Santa Claus is a dreadful thing in u
child's mind, and that is the reason
it would be particularly appropriate II
the children of Perth Amboy made up
the fund the EVENING NEWS is now
raising for a Christmas celebration
for the more unfortunate of our boys
and girls.
The Ditmas theatre is going to
give a moving picture show free on
Thursday afternoon, December "a.
the day before Christmas. The Citi-
zens' Relief Committee will give out
tickets where it renders relief to des-
titute families. The poor children
are going to see picture show, any
way.

lor Walker finds that he can attend
there will be q presentation by him
to Mayor Ferd Garretson for the city
of a picture of the former barracks

plants. Various processes OF manu-
facture will be viewed and the visi-
tors will be given opportunities to
see how raw material is made into
finished products In meny instances.

pears, several places of historical in
terest may be visited.
Governor Fielder will dine as q
guest of the Young Mems Christian
| econIation hare Friday evening and
he will participate in the dedication
| exercises for the new Y. M. c. A,

more to make 1t seem like Christmas.
The feature that is needed is a
Christmas tree with candy and toys,
That is what we want the boys and
girls of Perth Amboy to provide, and
parents can help, too, if they want
to. With a fund of $50 or $50 a
Christmas tree can be placed on the
stage after the show and a real, live
Santa Claus will present each child
with a bag Of candy and toy-that
is, he will If you help. Why not
every boy and girl Who is sure of a
merry Christmas give ten cents to
this fund? 1t would not take long
to raise the necessary amount, and
think what happiness 1t would
bring
Can you imagine the joy of a lit
tie girl who has had nothing but a
bundle of rags to play with taking
home a pretty little doll? Or can
you imagine little boy who has only
old tin cans for his treasures. carry
ing away a few painted soldiers, a
real drum or some other bright,
new toy? You know your own hap
piness even when you have several
dolls and a house full of toys al
ready. Then Just multiply that hap
piness a thousand times and you can
begin to imagine the feelings of the
children who will be cared for
through your contributions.
The fund was started yesterday
with $40. the Ditmas theatre and the
EVENING NEWS each giving s5.
The response TO the appeal is crafty
ing, four more contributions having
been received up to noon today. The
small amounts are particularly well

interested. The contributors thus
