PHYSICIAN READ STORY

A physician of Birmingham read the nameless story in The Age Herald of a blind mans optimism-that hope burn ing brightly upon the altar of his heart, the education of his boys. He sug sested that 10 Birmingham men contrib ute $50 or more to build this man a. stand. or rent niche where, out of the weather and protected from the winters blast, Walter Poor might be provided with stock of goods, pencils, chewing gums and other articles that he might earn ample money to maintain his boys and send them to school.
 In this way, it was pointed out, Walter Poor would be set squarely upon his feet. made independent. as it were, and see the fruition of his hopes
 A small committee could the busi- ness launched properly. There will be no problem in that connection.
 The mails yesterday brought responses from two more Birmingham business men.
 One of these merely inciosed a clip ping from The Age-Herald accompanied by q check for BIO.

 Because Walter Poor cannot keep his Emily together and educate these boys by his personal efforts alone. That is apparent to any practical mind.
