PLANS DINNERS
keokuk People Asked TO Help Them
in Their Work This Coming
Yule Tide.

The following statement has been
nrepared by local officers of the Sal
walton Army:
Again we draw near the Christmas
tide, and naturally our hearts and
thoughts turn to the poor of our city,
and prompts us to do what lies in
our power, to bring happiness and JOY
into as many homes and lives as pos
sible.
Years ago the Salvation Army
heard the call Of hungry people and
sorrowing children, and was the first
organization to send them cheer In
the shape of Christmas dinner
basket. Since then others have taken
I'D the work and today we believe
there is scarcely family overlooked.
The local army corps is striving to
do their part in this work and
solicites your help.
Donations of food, toys, clothing or
money will be thankfully received.
Every family helped, Is first in
vestigated and proven poor and de-
serving
The kettle will hang on the corner
of Fifth and Main the latter part OF
next week, for late contributions.
We are asking the friends who can
help Us by giving glass OF jelly or
fruit, to do so. We are anxious to
put some in each basket, especially
where there is sickness, or aged PEG
pie.
Phone 1860 and we will call for the
same.
We ask your help in the name OF
the Christ child whose birthday we
remember and who gave Himself so
freely for US.

The chart which is being used shows
that the line has been "skewed to the
right as the slogan suggests. From
tile interest taken by the students the
line will be further pushed to the right

uncomfortable for students to be tardy
In their classes, and the laggard in
studies is being prodded to better eff

DR.. r. l.. Reid, principal Of the
school. has made short talks to the
classes telling them that unless the
pupils put forth every effort they are
not getting the full value Of what IL

education and in consequence they are
not being loyal to their state or to
their city. The teachers are keeping
the records constantly before their
classes in one way or another.
The attendance figures show 50 per
