NURSERY CHILDREN
WILL HAVE A TREE

The Salvation Army received near
ly $50 day from the Christmas ket-
ties this week and are very much
pleased at FaiFmont's response to this
silent call for charity. The money
will go to trim two large trees which
were found on the back porch Of the
Salvation army headquarters this
morning and which will be used one
in the little church and the other in
the nursery, and for other necessities.
Presents OF candy, nuts and toys will
be given to every SA:TStIOn army
child at both places tomorrow. 1t
means that Captain Pickering, Mrs
Pickering and Envoy Fowle viii be
kept pretty busy today and tomorrow
but the result viii be we'll worth the
trouble.
Any money whici. remains will be
placed on Salvation army debts in the
city. AnunEber of toys have been do
mated for the children and these will
help make the upstairs room at the
nursery one beautiful fairyland to lit
tie folks who have no one to care par
ticularly about them at this happiest
time of all the year.
Captain Pickering is going to make
a barnyard at the foot of tho big tree
upstairs and when the babies, about
eight in number, awaken tomorrow
morning they'll have something to
gasp about along with other more for
tunate children in the city who come
creeping down before daylight for a
wild, anxious peep at Santa Claus do
Spgs by the fireplace. The nursery
tots will also have a fine dinner to-
mbrrow.

Twas Christmas Eve in Marytown.
The peling snow fakes scurned down,
And village windows warmed to greet
Their neighbor's glow across the street.
All of the Joy earth could con6ne
Seemed closely gamered in that line
Whereon the snug-set houses toed
The rambling wind-swept country road.
** ~ ~
Yet, huddled frowning in its space,
With barred and suffered gloomy face,
Like some sour spirit drawn apart,
From all these things which touch the heart
Rebuking cen the dancing snow
Lowered the house of Selfish Joe
Many Christmas Eve had whiled
Since Selfish Joe had even smiled;
Through all his years no deed of good
Drew interest Of gratitude.
And so it was as dusk fell fast
And drifts against his threshold massed,
No neishbor came to wish him joy,
No child to speak Of hoped-for toy.
~ ~ **
Der hearth piled high against the cold,
Joe hovered close, for Joe was Old
And, strangely, on this Christmas night
His FIRE gave neither warmth nor light.
He coaxed the blaze as best he could.
With bellows stirred The seasoned wood,

SOLILOQUY

There haint no beer,
And there hain't no booze,
And the soles is thin
On me winter shoes,
And me dodgast batch
o. underwear,
Is thin as a strand
OF Apollo's hair,
And the price o. things
A soarin' high,
TIL it's cheaper to live
Than it is to die
The strikes and turmoil
Make me sick,
Till l feel, meself,
Like a Bolchevik-
Kinda suspicious,
Kinda skeert,
Kinda oncertaiE,
Kinda afreed-
But the sun has shone
Most every day,
Clean on from the
Very first O May,
And the burds have sung,
And the flowers have bloomed,
And the War has ceased,
And the cannon's doomed
The last it'll boom
Fer a while,
And I've got a smile,
BY Heck, a smile
And tomorrow I'll use Il
Fer Christmas cheer,
And I'll wear it till
Christmas again next yeaEs

MINING ALMOST
At STANDST|LL
N THIS REGION
Only 269 Cars at Mines on
the Monongah Divis-
ion.

Mining operations are crippled to-
day in the Falrmont region as there
are 110 mines idle because of car
shortage along the MonOngah division
Of the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. The
supply Of cars is almost exhausted
with but 344 cars and, what is still
worse, there was an early placement
OF only 269 cars. AS a result of the
car shortage very little work win be
done in the mines today and the
mineFs win come to the city to finish
their Christmas shopping,
Today's cars on the Baltimore &
Ohio railroad are classified as fol-
lows: Open, 3SS; coke, s. Cars lete
over from the previous day are 81.
