BETTING CHEER
BUNDLES READY
FOR CHRISTMAS


Purchases Of gifts and goodies
Tor the poor children OF Rock Is
land to be made through The Argus
Santa Claus fund have all been
made The storeroom in The Argus
building has become the workshop
OF the Santa Claus committee. the
members OF which will be busy to-
morrow and Friday in wrapping
and addressing the cheer packages
Deliveries will be made Saturday.
Friends have come forward with
offers of use of automobiles to take
care of this part OF the IN
dertaktng.
Thus you might say that the
campaign in behalf OF the poor
kfddies is closed for this Christ
mas. And it Is, unless more names
are supplied the Santa Claus COM
mfttee. More than a thousand chill
dren are on the list to be visited
by The Argus Santa Claus Satur-
day. For each child there will be
toys, candles and nuts and some
needed article of wearing apparel
enough to make glad the heart of
any youngster. There is nothing
source of the gifts. The little folks
only know that they have appealed
TO Santa Claus for remembrances
and he has favored them the same
as the youngsters in the more pre-
tentious homes of the city.
The Santa Claus committee this
year, as in former years, has sought
to get in touch with every home in
the city where there is need of
some outside agency to enact the
role of Santa Claus. The commit
tee hopes that it has not over
looked a single child, for If one
little heart was left sad on Christ
mas morning the work of The
Argus Santa Claus would have
failed. 1t is for this reason that
the committee anxiously desires
that citizens who may know of a
case where there is likelihood OF
q child being neglected communi-
cate with the committee at The
Argus Office. The committee will
be at work all of Saturday and |
viii take care of any cases that |
are reported at any time during |
that day.

 "No Smoking" Signs Up
 It is because of this disregard of smoking nventions-because of the women, not the men--that the papnrs are full of letters from people pro testing against smoking out of place Tn trains, in the subways, and in hotel and club rooms. Indeed the whole thing has got to such an irri- tating pitch on the trains. that sev- eral railroad companies have put up non smoking" signs on few car- riages in every train Gnstead of a few "smoking'D and left the public to fight the thing out among them selves in all the rest

 Smoking at all in public is all ready being referred to by certain section of people as relic of un- couth times when expectorating WAS also polite.
