.PRETTYG|R[SC CORNER
THE Penny SUPPLY
They Hold Up Pedestrians in
the Interest of the Com
'ort Kit Fund.

Cash registers, money drawers, va.
rious other kinds of receptacles to
say nothing OF individual pocket books,
were almost entirely depleted today of
pennies and the comfort kit organiza.
ton of the Red Cross society has Its
Golfers considerably enriched thereby,
as most of the pennies in circulation
today went into the boxes, tincups,
pocket books and whatnots Of dozens
of pretty young women who held the
corners Of the streets and held up the
passerby with pretty plea for pennies
to help furnish comfort kits for the
boys of the U. S. army and navy.
If, when opened, the pocketbooks
were found to contain no pennies the
the admonition was to go to the near.
est store or bank and have larger coin
changed into pennies or If that was too
much trouble to drop in the recepta-
cles provided for their receipt larg.
or coin which would be turned into pen
MES or at least would be used in fur
nishing these kits for the boys at the
front. A large number of the larger
coins thus found their way into the
comfort kit fund.
Despite the cold weather the young
women held their ground and stood
we'll wrapped in furs and coats on
the corners Of Main street and asked
for pennies here pennies there and
pennies everywhere and in very few
instances were their pleas in vain.
Just what amount will be realized
by the fund committee can not be es.
timated at this time but 1t is thought
the fund will be considerably swell
ed by tonight.
