is a question often asked by Wis

Take Child Into Your Home Over
Christmas

A resident of nearby town has asked for the
presence of poor child in her home during the
Christmas holiday in order that its heart might
be filled with gladness and experience the cheer
and blessed comforts of the holiday.
This woman writes that she has children
in her home and would like to take of achild.
who otherwise would have no Christmas pres
ents, during the holidays.
This is fine spirit and one that proves that
the principle of love still burns brightly in the
hearts of many persons in our community. 1t is
a manifestation of love that might well be imi-
tated in hundreds of homes where there no
children to show their happiness over the atten-
tion and care which adults shower upon little
ones at Christmas time.
Scores of children in this community and
elsewhere, who have lost father or mother, and
whose enjoyment of the holiday will be impaired
by the loss, could be made happy by visit in
family anxious to communicate to unfortunate
ones share of the happiness which they them
selves experience year in and out
Not only will the child derive infinite pleas
ure from the visit, but the family itself will enjoy
a pardonable amount of satisfaction over the
good deed which it has performed Both the re-
cpent and the giver of this kind of Christmas
joy will long remember the visit of the unfortun-
ate child.
Inquiry at the Social Service Bureau elected
the information that the bureau will be able to
provide children for families that want to bestow
love and kindness upon little one.

Ripping Rhymes
BY WALT MASON
ANOTHER vow,

For long, long months we've run
amuck, with spend-thrifts we have
trotted. and eagerly blew in the buck.
and all sane counsels swatted. And
now approaches New Years Day,
wherein We make new pledges. and
call down murrains (what are they?)
or anyone who hedges. Until the
Christmas season drifts, amuck We'll
still be running, for We must blow our
selves for gifts, for doodads cute and
cunning. But when the New Years
Day arrives, this folly let's be ending,
let's renovate our wasted lives, and
cut out foolish spending It's time We
were in training now, for future self
denial, for framing up a solemn VOW
that we'll give thrift a trial. The old
year, shaken. bent and white. goes
out by easy stages: the New Years
coming-start it right, and pickle half
your wages. The vows we made in
other years would do for idle friskers;
we swore we'd cut our cards and
beers and cigarets and whiskers. But
We are facing sterner times; retrench-
ment is the motto: the watchword
now is, Salt the Dimes and you'll
agree we'd ought to- The old year,
in it's going, tells a tale of money
burning; the New Years coming,
wearing bells-then new leaves let's
be turning!

The acceptance of the post of secretary of the
Chamber of Commerce by w. A. Milne, of Mum
Gle, meets with the approval of those who have
been theoretically working for the organization
and of those who heard him speak here some
time ago.
He will give to the new organization the adj
vantages of his wide training and his more recent
experience in Muncie, where he rehabilitated a
commercial club, making it one Of the most active
In Indiana.
The thought was general in the city, after his
appearance recently, that Mr.. Milne would be an
ideal man for the position of secretary. This
opinion was heard on. all sides. The organizers
of the Chamber of Commerce Immediately began
conferences with Mr.. Milne for the purpose of
obtaining his services finally succeeding in
bringing him to Richmond.
The advent of Mr.. Milne by the first of the
new year will accelerate interest in the Chamber
of Commerce and convince number of skeptcs
that the organization is not of a mushroom vari-
ETY. but is hardy and robust addition to the city
of Richmond.
Under Mr.. Mines direction the Chamber Of
Commerce will begin to function quickly and to
accomplish the purposes for which it was called
into being. An able secretary to direct the work
