In many schools, the buildings were
not sufficiently heated until late in the
day and the pupils wore outside coats
and were put through calesthenic exer-
cises by the teachers. At Hibberd
school the fifth grade pupils were dis
missed this morning because the
school room was too cold for work.
Secretary Melpolder of the Central
Charity bureau declared today that
there is more charity in Richmond to-
day than there has been at any time In
the two preceding winters.
There is more charity going on
through the organization than there
has been at any time previous of
which we have any record" Mr.. Mel
polder said. There is an exceptional
lot of private charity of which we
never receive any report"
Poor Request Shoes.
The central bureau and the town
ship trustees also received many calls
for shoes. Anything less than heavy
shoes made outdoor walking almost
impossible. Truant Officers Bishop
received many calls from school chill
dren for shoes. He said that even
more calls would have been received
but the school children of that con-
dition were unable to stand the walk
through the cold from their homes to
the attendance office in the court
house.
The clothing demands have been
fairly well met within the past two
weeks. The snow brought out the
people to whom heavier clothing was
necessary and as a result there are
fewer calls for clothing than for food
and coal.
