wish to pay. The committee of ladies'
having in charge the arrangements

chaser, an9H the result of the sale OF
tags means much for the future of the
home. The home is supported by vol
untary contribution and has done d
wonderful work for the protection OF
homeless little ones. and should re-
ceive the support OF every person in
the city
Be prepared to buy your tag early
and TO give just as much for it as you
are able. even if that is but a cent.
One worker has sold each year a tag
to an old lady who explains each time
that she wants TO help the home but
can spare only penny from her mea-
gre purse.
Last year the proceeds were so large
that they helped tide over a good part
OF the winter. The returns this year
should be equally as big.
