A REAL CHRISTMAS GIFT

During the past week gentleman
called at our office and said that he
wanted to do something to help the
starving Armenians and that while he
could not afford to do much, that he
and his wife had decided that they
and the children would rather do with.
out, II by so doing, they could help the
sufferers in far away Armenia. He
asked who was taking the contribu-
tions for this cause, here in Toledo.
We informed him we did not know.
He then asked II we would send in
some money for him and we assured
him we would, whereupon he pulled
out an old wallet, which contained a
few nickles and pennies and one bill.
He gave us the bill with the request
that we forward 1t for him and his
family We opened the bill and 1t wac
ten dollars, ten dollars that had been
saved for Christmas. Now we call
this real Christmas giving, because
we personally know that the donors
were not financially able to give SO
much.
