NEW WORKERS
PLAN CHRISTMAS
Red Bag society Which was Founded
by Iowa Women Is Already
at Work.

Mrs. Austin N Palmer, ZIG West
Tooth street, formerly Miss Sadie
Whiting of Cedar Rapids, Iowa, presi-
dent and organizer of the Christmas
ked Bag society, is elated with the
success Of her gigantic undertaking.
Five thousand red bags are ready to
be filed with warm clothing and
Christmas goodies for the very poor
children Of New York City. Last
Christmas the Iowa New Workers club
filled one hundred and fifty of the ten
thousand red stockings distributed by
the Brooklyn Red Stocking society to
the poor tots of Brooklyn. Mrs: Palm
er through the courtesy of Mrs
James Waterman, president Of the
Red Stocking society. assisted in dis
tributing the stockings, and witness
ing the JOY on the faces of the little
ones as they lugged their neavy stock
ings home, remember every stocking
had foot big enough to hold ten
pound ham, and a good sized UNI
brella stand would have plenty Of
room in each leg, decided to organize
society for the happiness of the
poor children of New York City. Mrs.
Palmer is vice president Of the Iowa
New Workers. and president Of the
Society for Political Study, and every
member of both clubs promised to
stand by her, and help her in this stu
pendous work. IIany Of the other
club women throughout the city offer
ed their valuable assistance, and as
a result five thousand children will be
made happy this Christmas. 1t will
be the only Christmas each child will
have, and to prevent confusion at the
distributing stations, the name and
address and age of each child Is
placed on tag and every case is in
vestigated before the Gag is attached
to the bag to be filed.
The committee investigating the
applicants, as well as looking in the
crowded tenements and down on the
docks are surprised at the distress
and misery in our midst, and urge
the people to put in warm underwear
and practical things as well as sweets,
and make them comfortable as well
as happy on Christmas day.

CLABBY RULES FAV0RITE
Expected to Trounce AL Mccoy
on Tuesday Night.

No small degree Of interest has been
aroused over the meeting Of Al Nc
Coy, who defeated George Chip with
one punch one night. and Jimmy Clab-
By. the clever middleweight from Ham
mond, Ind. The men will cross gloves
in ten-round bout at the Broadway
Sporting Club, of Brooklyn, on Tues
day night Barring the unforeseen, Me-
Coy is in for one OF the neatest lacings
he ever took. There il none so foolish
as TO state that Mccoy can hope to
outlook his man, for Al IL one Of the
poorest boxers who ever gained promi-
nence in the ring. Nor can he hold
out any great hopes Of outslugging
Clabby, who, for all his science. Is q
stiff puncher with both hands.
Il may be that Clabby will have a
chance 10 establish himself as the mid
dleweight champion II he can land q
knockout punch. II he should happen
10 stop Mccoy he will have accom-
