CHRISTMAS GIVING
CHANCES REMAIN
OPEN FOR PUBLIC
Associated Charities Re-
port Opportunities to
Help in District.

Contributions are still coming in
for the Christmas opportunities.
The amount received to date is re-
ported as 1856. Although the ap-
, peal officially closed on Christmas
morning, with SS,452 in hand, S1,264.
have since been received. OF the to-
tai sums asked for, S12,94S, all but
S3,332 is now assured. Six Of the
opportunities have been fully sub
scribed. These are Nos 1, 5, s, 9, 10
and a12 No. is practically closed
with S54 yet needed.
1t has heen the experience OF the
Opportunity Fund during the eleven
years since it was first started that
contributions continue to filter in
% during the winter months from those
who have not felt in a position to
give during the Christmas season,
but do not forget the continuing
needs of those families and are
anxious to see that their budgets are
fully met.
Families Not Hurt.
Fortunately the families con-
cerned are not parties to the pub
licity given in the appeal. Any un-
certainty produced by failure fully
complete the opportunities is not
shared with the families affected.
The sponsors Of the Opportunities
accept the responsibility for seeing
that the mothers and children are
not separated because of poverty.
In this connection the Associated
Charities states that it wishes again
to. thank publicly the hundreds of
contributors and they are literally
- h-f
Christmas and New Year cheer into
these fourteen homes.
Moreover the 0pOrtunity fund
helps to meet a complaint one some
times hears that in giving to organ
lied charity. one loses the person
FL touch because the nI,r rey given
goes into a general pool from
which it is distributed wj:hOu. any
special knowledge on the part Of
the g!ver as to how it - used The
opportunity fund seeks TO meet this
CCJSctiOn by placing .le C1n0r m
touch with the family to whom
. his money is given. This is done
: by means of reports from the So
Cial worker by whom the partiCu-
lar family in question is being
cared for.
Reports Complete.
While no names and addresses
are given in these reports a fairly
complete description of the work
ing out of plans for the family
and their results are transmitted.
and the chance is given to the dom
or to learn more details if ne so
desires. This. of course, is only
possible in cases where the contrib
utOrs have chosen to give their
names and addresses.
As previously announced the to-
tai budgets. of the Fourteen OppOr-
tunity families are considerably
larger this year than in any prev
iOus year Of the appeal. The num-
Der of contributors has however
correspOndingly increased, having
never been as large as during the
Christmas season just past

1t. Ferens. the former solicitor, first
came to him with list Of proposals.
which only repeated the demands made
by the agitators at Spithead.
you're new among u.s." said Fer
ems to Dyck. "You don't quite know
what we've been doing, l suppose.
Some of us have been in the navy for
two years, and some for ten. There
are men on this ship who could tell
you stories that would make your
blood run cold-take my word for IT..
There's lot Of things goin' on that
oughtn't to be goin' on. The time has
come for reform.
Things are movin', and we've got
to take our stand now when the time
Is ripe for it, or else lose 1t forever.
Over at Spithead they're gettin' their
own way. The government are goin'
to send the admiralty board down here,
because our admiral says to them that
1t won't be safe goin' unless they do"
"And what are we going to do here"
asked Dyck. whats the game Of the
fleet ut the Nore?"
Ferens replied in low voice:
'Our men are goin' to send out Pc
titions-to the admiralty and to the
house Of commons"
"Why don't you try Lord Hover?
Hes not in command Of fleet
now. Besides, petitions have been sent
him, and he's taken no notice"
Howe? No notice-the best admiral
we ever had! I don't believe it." de-
The St. Charles herald. [volume] (Hahnville, La.) 1873-1993, 1921-12-03

clared Dyck savagely. "Why, the whole
navy believes In Howe. They haven't
forgotten what he did in "a. He's as
near to the seaman as the seaman is
to his mother. He's a big enough
friend of the sailor to waste no time
before doing his turn"
Ferens shook his head morosely.
'"That may be-" he said, "but the pc
titiOns were sent weeks ago, and
there's no sign from Lord Howe. He
was at Bath for govt. My idea is he
referred them to the admiral COM
manding at Portsmouth, and was told
that behind the whole thing is conspir-
acy-French socialism and English
politics. I give you my word there's
no French agent In the fleet, and IL
there were. it wouldn't have any eff
feet. Our mems grievances are not
new. They're as old as Cromwell"
Suddenly light of suspicion flashed
into Ferens' face.
you're with us, aren't you? You see
the wrongs we've suffered, and how
bad it all is Yet you haven't been on
a voyage with US. You've only tasted
the life in harbor. Good God, this
life is heaven to what we have at sea
We don't mind the fightin'. We'd rath-
er fight than eat" An evil grin covered
his face for a minute. Eyes, we'd rath-
er fight than eat, for the stuff we get
to eat is hell's broil, God knows! Did
you ever think what the life Of the
sailor is, that swings at the top Of
mast with the frost freezin' his very
soul, and because he's slow, OWN to
the cold, gets twenty lashes for not be-
in quicker? Well, I've seen that, and
a bad sight. it is. Did you ever see a
man logged? It amt pretty sight.
First, the back takes the click of the
whip like id washboard, and you
see the ridges rise and go purple and
red, and the man has his breath
knocked clean out of him with every
blow. Nearly every stroke takes off
the skin and draws the blood, and
dozen will make the back ditch of
murder. Then the whipper stops, looks
at the lashes, feels them tender like,
and out and down 1t comes again.
When all the back Is ridged and
SCARED, the flesh, that looked clean
and beautiful, becomes bloody mass.
Some men get hundred lashes, and
that's torture and death.

Slowly Dyck folded up the letter,
when he had read 1t, and put it in his
pocket. Then he turned with pale
face and gaunt look to Michael Clones.
Michael" said he, shat letter is
from a lady. 1t comes from her new
home in Virginia"
Michael nodded.
AYE, aye, sir. understand you"
he said. "Then she doesn't know the
truth about her fatherT
Dyck sighed heavily.
mo, Michael. she doesn't know the
truth"
II don't believe it would make any
difference to her If she did KNOW
1T would make all the difference to
me, Michael. She says she wishes
to help me. She tells me that moneys

money to take me across the sea to
Virginia"
Michael's face clOuded.
Eyes, sir. To Virginia-and what
them"
Michael, we haven't a penny in
the world. you and I, but If took one
farthing Of that money I should hope
you would kill me. I'm hungry; we've
had nothing to eat since yesterday;
but If could put my hands upon that
money here and now wouldn't touch
1t. Michael, it looks as If we shall

Having said his say, with hand out
stretched, having thrilled the air with
the voice Of one who had the soul Of
q prophet, the old man turned. With
head bent forward, he shuf1ed away
with Michael Clones along the stony
street.
Dyck watched them go. his heart
beating hard. his spirit overwhelmed.
It was not for he walked, yet every
footstep had a history. Now and
again he met people who knew him.
Some bowed q little too profoundly,
some nodded; but not one stopped to

them were people he had known we'll

their hands against the bright fire.

England was in q state Of unrest.
She had, as yet, been none too sue
cessful in the war with France. From
the kings castle to the poorest Stun
IN Seven Dials there was a temper
bordering on despair. Ministries came
and went: statesmen rose and fell.
The army was indifferently recruited
and badly paid. England's battles
were fought by men of whom many
were only mercenaries, with no stake
IL England's rise or fall.
The admiralty pursued its course OF
Seixing men Of the mercantile marine,
taking them aboard ships. keeping
them away for months from the har-
bors Of the kingdom, and then, when
their ships returned, denying them the
right Of visiting their homes. The
press-gangs did not confne their &C
tivities to the men Of the mercantile
marine. From the streets after dusk
they caught and brought in. often af-
ter ill-treatment, torn from their wives
and sweethearts. knocked on the head
for resisting, tradesmen with bust
nesses, young men studying for pro-
LESSONS, idlers, debtors. out-of-work
men. The marvel is that the British
fleets fought as well as they did.

reavement were In every street,
