TOY MISSION GREAT
 SUCCESS

PITTSBURG, Feb. 4.-Among the several unusual institutions in this city is the Toy Mission. It was started twenty-five or thirty years ago and has flourished ever since.
 In the long ago citizen conceived the idea that each year there were thousands of toys cast aside by rich children after they had played with them for awhile. So this man pro- ceeded to round up these discarded toys. Another prominent, citizen fur nished a storeroom and here the toys were gathered. A handy crafts man put on a leg here and touch of paint there, and presto! the toys were as good as new.
 Then the aid of the newspaper was f enlisted to ask citizens to turn in the names of little boys and girls who were too poor to share in Yuletide joys and who would not likely re- ceive any toys.
 Was there any response? There was and by the hundreds and thou sands. 1t was surprising to know how many poor, toyless kdis there were in this city.
 The first year the stock of rejuve- hated toys was not particularly large, but the toys were taken Christ mas morning to a lot of little boys and girls about the city who other wise would have had nothing to play with on Christmas Day. The cheer these playthings brought to lonely kids cannot be estimated It was a wonderful idea.
 Came the next Christmas, and the newspapers gave up columns of space boosting the Toy Mission and ex- plaining it's needs and what it could do. Dollies of every size, color and description poured in. That was not all Steam engines, games and every gimcrack known to the toy world were donated. And everyone found sad but lonely and waiting kid.
 So the years passed. More and more influential citizens were enlist ed in this cause. Some bought lots of brand-new toys, others contrib uted generous sums of cash for pur- chase these playthings.
 The Toy Mission of Pittsburg has grown to great proportions. TWO weeks before Christmas each year may be seen hundreds of poor moth CTS, with from one to dozen kids picking out the treasures which they think their little opes will be pleased with. One, two or three toys are al- lotted to each child Some are taken home by these poor parents, others are delivered Christmas morning.
 Last Christmas, according to re- cent figures, 10000 down-and-out kids in Pittsburg were made happy by the work of the Toy Mission.
 Two weeks before Christmas so- ciety girls of aristocratic Grafton a suburb, came to the mission to con- duct a regular doll-dressing cam paign.
 It's not such bad old world. after all
