good cheer and gift-giving. From
another viewpoint there is an encour-
aging growth of the spirit of the ut
terance Of Elizabeth Phillips.
Eighteen years ago Elizabeth Phil
lips had an Inspiration to make the
anniversary of Our Lords birth not
SO much an anniversary of happiness
for the few as an anniversary of hap
piness for the many. She had vision
of those who have giving to those
who have not. And from her humble
children have come the thousand and
one Christmas givings the country
over that are making the holiday year
by year one of happiness to increas
Ing numbers of the poor. the friend
less and the hopeless.
Elizabeth Phillips-she has been
dead these thirteen years-had her
inspiration In 1904 In Philadelphia.
She was a teacher In The public
schools. She lay Ill In a boarding
house She saw the cold rain of au-
tumn beating against her window.
She thought OF the Christmas that
was coming.
christmas will not mean very
much to me-" she thought 'But II
Will mean far less-maybe nothing at
ALTO many. If | could only make
1t a better Christmas for some #
those. I can; know I can. | will
try"
AS soon as she got well she began
to work out her plan. Through the
cooperation of President Roosevelt
she was enabled to secure hundreds
of letters to Santa Claus-every
Christmas season these letters come
In a flood to every big-city post office
Then she made 1t her business TO
visit her friends. to cali upon q host
of new ones. to solicit help from
everybody, everywhere. collecting two
cents in one place. five cents in an
other place, dollar somewhere else,
and by the time Christmas eve arrived
she had filed several hundred stock
ings.
The fame of Elizabeth Phillips
spread widely. And she had visions
Vi HutlbH-Nlut movement along tnt
line of her successful experiment.
"a Christmas stocking for every
child,' she said. THE Christmas
day is coming when Santa Claus shall
visit every child In the land and none
shall be forgotten.
at is my purpose to make Santa
Claus a reality, whose home VIII be

friend of children everywhere. The
most important thing is permanent
headquarters-the House of Santa
Claus. And over the door there will
be a statue of the old fellow with

children pass by they can say. There's
whore Santa Claus lives-he sees that
every boy and girl gets stocking
filled with Christmas things at Christ

There Santa's work will be carried
on-not only during the week before
Christmas but all through the year

sistants with a fleet of automobiles

Christmas giving. The movement

seemed small to her. And as the re-
suits became greater and the work
increased the goal seemed farther
away than ever to her. Her work
was halted by illness. and she was
forced to watch tire Christmas of 1909
draw nearer and nearer without being
able to keep on. Despair took hold
Of her and she ended her life.
But the spirit OF Christmas that
animated her did not die with her.
She had done her work too well.
