$4,000 IS RAISED
IN THE DEACONESS
HOSPITAL DRIVE
Workers Greatly Encour-
aged At Success Won
Three $1,000 Pledges In
List-More Are In Sight

Ten thousand dollars, with the
quest for the Deaconess Hospital
fund only fairly begun. sent enthus-
iasm and confident expectation of
ultimate SUCCESS into the ascendant
at the noon meeting on Friday at the
I. NJ. c. A, when the canvassers met
to report.
Other than the goodly sum of
money reported, there was also en-
couragement in the large number of
workers still sticking valiantly on the
job, and all confident that the un-
dertaking. begun amid so many SEEM
ingly discouraging circumstances,
would not be in vain.
1T this spirit of the workers-and
1t is, indeed. safe barometer of such
a ituation-continues, said L. o.
Jones, the organizer, who is here as
sisting in setting up the canvass,
there will not be room for the least
doubt as to ultimate success" There
were some occasions existing Friday
that had not existed on other days to
call workers away from the meeting
but in spite of this fact. the room
was Tiled, as on the first day.
"Not the Cream"

the easy cream first-the $4,000 we
have now pledged has come in the
regular course of the campaign. We
have not sought the easy money
first" explained one of the leaders
True, we have gathered three $1,000
pledges. but this means that there
are more of them to be had. Our
workers are evidencing the momen-
tum that they acquire with each
days effort, and from this time on,
we are going forward at constantly
accelerating pace, is my belief" he
further stated.
ITO an individual the $4,000 we
are asking may seem like a great
sum, but we must not allow our
selves to judge the matter on the
basis of individual experience" said
Mr.. Jones, addressing the workers
Judged on the comparative basis

sources. $4,000 is by no means a

ANOTHER CHANCE IS
OFFERED TOATTEND
SALMAGUND| SHOW

Hot dogs, right over this way"
Hit the niger baby. three shots
for a. nickel
These and all the other similar
phrases which haunted the circus
grounds when grandpa was a boy as
well as those which a person hears
in these days, were heard at the Sal
amagundi circus last night on the
First M. E. church grounds at 200
West Monroe street. The circus will
be repeated tonight. when another
record breaking crowd is expected to
be in attendance.
Among the main events is the per-
fectly shocking crazy house. OF
Christian society, but nevertheless
even they. are capable of doing things
which shock people. If you want to
wake up, just go there and it will
certainly put some life into you.
Then there's the ever popular "hit
the niger baby" attraction which
never fails to draw an interested
crowd when the gallant young hero
steps up to show the onlookers what
a wing" he's got and mercilessly
hurls the ball at the poor little un-
fortunate colored boy standing be-
hind the canvas.
The circus management wishes to
announce that 1t has this year Sc
cured the only red-haired monkey in
existence, and it is earnestly re-
quested that the spectators do not
tease the animals s they are human
too.
Beside all the peanuts, pop corn,
confetti, noisemakers, and clowns.
the merrymakers will find any NUM-
ber of sideshow attractions at their
disposal, which will amuse both
young and old. Perhaps one of the
main drawing cards OF the sideshows
is that of the Largest goose on
earth" This draws any number of
people and unlike most sideshows of
it's kind, the people don't come out of
it bubbling over with mirth and con-
veying to their friends it's contents,
those who have been in 1t maintain
sphinx like silence and nothing with
in human power can pry from them
the great secret which they keep
within their breasts. So If one is to
know the contents of this mysterious
tent. he must make the pilgrimage
himself.
