Heavy freight trains are rumbling

PHILADELPHIA, Boston. San Francisco

Seattle and every other big city in the
United States are busy getting ship

The Christmas ship? 1t is the mod

to boast a pack filed with good things
destined for the innocent sufferers In
the great European war-the children
who have been orphaned by 1t, who
have been robbed of all hopes for
Christmas Joys. Newspapers, rail-
roads, express companies and big in
dustries have co-operated with the
great American people whose ears are
ever ready to hear the cry of those in

the gifts of Paul and Jules and Marie

II was this job of gathering the gifts
OF all America together that gave the
projectors OF the great charity the
most concern 1t was easy to call for
gifts, easy too, TO get them started
east, once the railroads had volun-
teered TO do their share and transport
the goods free, but where would they
be sorted and arranged for loading on

trial depot where a warship might
moor be found without paying an ex-
