EMPTY STOCKING
FUND DISSTARTED
First Contribution Fer Dispensa'
ton Among Needy Families
During Xmas Season

The Empty Stocking Fund was
opened today with contribution of
81 from Mrs. E. S. Thurman.
F6f the past several years this
fund has been conducted by the
Times-Recorder for the pleasure Of
the kiddies in writing to Santa Claus,
registering in print their wants to
him, and for those little ones on
whom fortune has not smiled.
This year will be no exception.
As the remaining days are short
in which to raise this fund for the
poor of the community, it is urged
that the contributions come in rapid
ly in order that they may be for
warded to Santa Claus in his far
away Northern home, and no little
child overlooked on Christmas Eve
night.
The conduct of the campaign will
remain as heretofore. Subscribers
may designate to which organization
the funds are to be paid, the AssO-
ciated Charities or the Salvation
Army, and if this is not done it will
be equally divided at the expiration
Of the time limitation.
Just word to the kiddies. Santa
Claus letters will be received as
heretofore. But only those letters
containing 10 cents or more to go
to the Empty Stocking Fund will be
printed in the Santa Claus column.
Bear this in mind, and send your
dime along with the letter. If this
is not done, the letters will be sent
to Santa Claus through the mail, but
not printed in the letter column.
Now, get busy, kiddies, and let's
have lots of letters and lots Of
dimes.

That Ludendorff, far from being
a skilled stratgist, is bungler.
French finances are weak, true"
Dclbruck said, "but France besides
maintaining an army almost great
as before the war, building a vast
feet of submarines and casting guam
titles of cannon that could shoot
across the channel to London, also is
paying part of the bills of the Polish

many.
THE distress in which Germans
live today can be appreciated when
one realizes one dollar today buys
1000 marks instead of little more
than four marks, as in normal times.
'To get out of its industrial mis-
cry, Germany must have interna-
tional credit. French policy makes
credit impossible And the huge cost
of the French army of occupation

Hence all Germans blame France

His college was the cobbler shop

and a few really worthwhile
books.
1t was those books, wisely Sc
lected for him, and Systematically
read, that gave Lloyd George his
start.
Why not decide to-day to stop

their building power in other lives"
