AEIAtWEEe"
VandaIia, No., Dec. 1, 19I5zIn
reply to yours Of 26th as to how we
handle the tramp nuisance in winter,
viii say we do not make any great eff
fort to handle at all.
Last winter when You opened a free
soup kitchen wa were much pleased
and commend you very highly. We
did not stop with words Of praise but
sent all Of our framps to your kitchen,
knowing that the greater the volume
Of business the cheaper 1t can be done.
Besides no business can prosper with
out patrons YOH being our Heighbor
and we your friend, we wanted 70
show BY act and deed that we wanted
you to have all Of our business, but
up to the present time We have had no
expressions Of thanks or appreciation
from you.
II you discontinue your kitchen, we
win IN some way feed and shelter the
destitute who are unable TO work, who
come within our gates and those who
are able TO work We win give them
their choice. work or get out aid they
usually get out.
And now / will leave this great
question with You. II you can solve
It correctly, the world win raise up
and call you blessed.

sToRY-TELLING-LADY
WITH MEXICO KIDDIES

WITH MEAlJU hIDDIES
In a great many cities the schools
and public libraries have paid story
%tellers to entertain the children and
incidentally lay the foundation for
their future education. Mexico is
never behind in any educational move
ment and Miss Marjory Comstolk, Of
Hardin College is telling stories every
Monday afternoon at the public IL
brary.
Miss Comstolk is from st. Louis
and is studying to be a missionary.
She is working her way through Har-
din college and the story telling is
done with no purpose Of pecuniary re-
turn but simply to help the children
and incidentally get experience in the
work.
Miss Helen Fielder, Of the Hardin
faculty, who teaches Religious ped
agogy, is instructor in story telling
at the school and Miss Comstolk Is
one Of her pupils.
It is an interesting as well as an in
spring spectacle to see Miss Com
stolk surrounded by twenty-five or
thirty bright faced children listening
to her stories. They form in a circle
about her and the interest is 80 COM
plete that you can almost hear the
proverbial pin drop when she pauses
in her discourse.
Miss comstoIk is a slender brunette
Of attractive appearance and her in
~terest in the work reflects her enthus-
lasm. She is unusually good recon.
teur and the Mexico mothers who are
taking advantage of her kindness are
especially delighted with her work
and the good results in evidence a.
mong the children.
