The Rotary Christmas tree held last

fruits for approximately 400 children
Of the city, and was one of the most
successful events of the kind ever held
in Brownsville.
BY 1880 o'clock, the time set for the
distribution of presents. the entire
area surrounding the tree was jammed.
and the boy scouts were pressed into
service to assist in keeping the young

those families whom the Rotarians con
sidcrcd most deserving of aid. With
the tickets firmly clasped in their hand
the youngsters waited in line until
their turn came TO mount TO the plat
form and receive their gift from Santa
Claus. There was much chatter and
laughter, and the occasion was enjoyed
almost as much by the large throng Of
spectators as by the children who re-
ccivcd the gifts.
1T was one OF the most successful
Christmas trees ever given by the
Rotarians, was the verdict of mem
ber Of the committee. 1--WE had been
careful in making proper distribution
OF the tickets to those whom we consid-
cred would most need them, and prac-
ticaiiy every child receiving a ticket
was at the tree to get his or her pres
ent.'
After all had received presents only
six sticks Of candy remained, showing
how generally had the recipients OF
tickets taken advantage OF the oppor-
tuni;y to secure gift at the Rotary
Christmas tree. Hundreds Of the chill
drens' little faces were wreathcd ia
smiles as the gifts were passed out by
John Starck in the role Of Santa Claus
aud his assistants, and the parents OF
the children who were present in large
numbers voiced their appreciation OF
the efforts OF the Rotarians to make
this in all respects a merry Christmas
