DESTITUTE YOUTH Two
DAYS WITHOUT FOOD
Unable to Find Employment Had
to Abandon Homo and Send
Mother to Relatives.

Some idea OF the conditions existing
In this city at the present time as a
result of the Industrial depression and
the lack of employment, WAS gained
this morning when a young man
walked into the office of Homer c.
simmons. clerk of City Council. and
asked where he could find work. He
said he had had nothing to eat since
Monday morning and that he had
spent last night sleeping in she street.
lie and his mother had been Keeping
house together but he lost his position
sometime ago and has been unable TO
find work anywhere. Finally their
condition became 80 desperate that
they had to break up their home, dis
pose of what they had and then his
mother went to the home of relatives
in Baltimore. He has been trying to
get there himself but could not get the
money for railroad fare.
The youth was known personally TO
Mr.. Simons who has no reason to doubt
his story. He was greatly affected by
the knowledge that friend should be
reduced TO such stringent circumstan-
ces and he gave the young man suf'i-
cient money with which to buy food
for today. He will endeavor to get
employment for him as quickly as
possible and hopes TO have job for
the youth tomorrow.
Another. case of destitution was re-
vealed when n young man complained
that his landlord had ordered him out
OF his house within twenty four hours
because he was four weeks back with
the rent. He said when the landlord
appeared to deliver his order, his wife
was very i'll and a physician was in
attendance and about to bring little
baby into the world. The doctor de-
clared the landlords action was inhu-
man and unjust but he was relentless
and refused to withdraw il. The ten
ant. however, declared he intended TO
remain at least until his wife and baby
were able to be moved without danger
TO either of them.

SEND N SLOGAN FOR
GLAZED KID week
Three Pairs OF Fine Shoes Are
Offered to Prize
Winners.

At meeting OF the executive COM
mittee OF the Glazed Kid Week Cam
paign, Il was decided to offer three
pairs of the finest glazed kid shoes as
prizes. for the three best campaign
slogans submitted by any man, woman
or child, regardless OF age.
The committee wants a slogan that
will I'm a short sentence. tell why peo-
pie should wear glazed kid shoes from
the standpoint of comfort, durability,
health and economy. Something like
'Fit feet make fit bodies" or Wear
Glazed Kid and Smile" or some phrase
that will convey the idea that IL Is most
important for the health and weli-be-
ing of the average person. that he be
comfortably shod. No business man
can work to his highest efficiency un-
less he has succeeded In avoiding foot
troubles.
Women especially are sufferers, par
ticularly those who by reason of their
occupation must stand. or walk n great
deal on pavements or hard floors. Al
most everyone has suffered at some
time or other from the discomfort oc-
casioned by improper shoes. The
average person dislikes to break in a
new pair of shoes because OF the tight
ness and discomfort usually expert
enced.
With glazed kid shoes this difficulty
Is eliminated and because the leather
liz so pliable and soft on the feet, the
discomfort of new shoes is avoided.
All suggestions for slogans must be
received by September Sd. More than
one slogan can be submitted by one
person. The sheets containing the
slogans should be signed with the name
and address OF the author and mailed
