Of. old COIN
GOESlo MELTING POT
Small Boy Contributes His Treas
ured Collection to the
81. Red Cross.
Put these in the Red Cross melting

Put these In the Red Cross melting
pot. please
A little chap whose head hardly
reached above tho counter stretched
his fist over the top OF a glass case in
the showroom OF Gait & Bro. opened
It and displayed q handful Of old coin.
They were mostly those enormous cop
per cents with which the pockets of
our grandfathers were burdened-
Among them were some half-cents. once
a part of the currency of the nation.
These coins may be found by numis-
matists to have special value.
The donor was James Wygant. He
explained that they were his coins.
given to him to keep. but that he
thought they would be an acceptable
addition to the Red Cross melting pot
They are.

Any Kind Of Money Acceptable.

Any kind Of money Is acceptable. OF
course. coins are metal. but paper cur
rency Is convertible into coin or cash.
Some one has thrown into the Red
Cross melting pot a handful OF copper
cents. There also is q lucky penny and
one Chinese copper coin with a square
hole therein.
The Red Cross melting pot seems to
iron. A woman comes into the show
rooms Of Gait & BfpL nearly every
other day. and. approaching clerk
with whom she has not had previous
dealings. offers package. saying For
the Red Cross melting pot" She re-
fuses to give her name and disap-
pears. Her contributions usually are
odds and ends of gold and silver orna-
ments-
There 10 q suspicion that this is the
woman who gave the first contribution
to the melting pot, and who then re-
fused to be known In the matter. De-
scriptions Of the unknown" tally with
that of the originator of the project
Anonymous Contributions.
Anonymous contributions of miscella-
peous pieces Of precious metals con-
Time to come In and the melting pot
mia up. Tin and lead foil. collected by
smokers and families of smokers. are
fayorite offerings. A large package Of
tin foil was presented by Q. r. Hamii-
ton.
There is no question that many peo-
pie on the street, who pause to gaze in
the window of Gait & Bro. where the
Red Cross melting pot Is exhibited. are
interested and tell themselves that they
have much of such junk of intrinsic
value such as the pot contains. and
promise themselves to help. The
greater part of them go about 1t
promptly. Others are slackers in per-
forming a duty apparent to them. and
allow the grind of daily occupation to
divert them from the good intent that
they have conceived.
