child who received a ticket for a pair
of new shoes was given a personal
examination behind closed doors of the
charity office.
Little Fellow cries.
It took twenty minutes to get a
confession from one little 9-year-old
boy that the shoes he wore were tossed
into corner of the woodshed last
spring when barefoot time arrived FL
nally he admitted that he had secretly
changed his shoes after his mother
sent him to the charity office after a
new pair, but declared tearfully that
the shoes he has been wearing to
school are mo gooder" than the ones
he was wearing.
The shoes he wore had been worn
through for about half the length of
the sole. He left home with no pro
lection to the ball OF his foot ex-
cept his stocking. Walking over the
rough ice on the way, he wore through
his stockings and walked half way on
his bare feet to the charity office. Mr..
Melpolder gave him good pair of
used shoes and told him to bring his
other shoes. When he returned it was
found that these We're low shoes, in
almost as bad condition, and he was
given ticket for new pair.
The one hundred little children who
received shoes were so proud that they
had shoes of their own possession that
they remained in the business district
! for several hours displaying them
The supply was exhausted by noon
today. but the paraders could be seen
this afternoon, showing their new pos
sessions to the public, who, in the heat
of Christmas shopping failed to ap
preciate properly.
One little girl said she could not
remember of ever having had new
pair Of shoes. Her rapidly growing
brothers and sisters received the new
ones, and when they were supplied
she received their cast-off articles
One tot with a foot not more than
! seven inches long, was wearing a
pair of shoes eleven inches in length
thin soled, and which evidently were
made for dance floor. He presented
comical but pathetic spectacle.

When boy entered the charity office
without removing his hat, an attempt
was made to have him voluntarily dc

forces.
While Ambassador Grrard'S a,lusion is
clever and appeals TO the uuinitiated. il
Is sadly unfair for these reasons:
!. The arms and ammunNion to which
Ambassador Gerard has reference were
