An aged gentleman aCG1tts a

or red handle.
A 1OomGn 1Uith q family of mine
Uishes to make sure her little
brood will not be sOithooSt toys,
candy and Christmas dinner.
Another aUOmaGn needs 500 TO get
her furniture out of storage so
she can rent house and sub
lease the rooms. She has fiVe
children all under t1OeIVe, to sup

There are typical cases that
GOOD FELLOWS of Washington
will attend to within the next IS
hours
Besides those, dozens and dozens
of others are in the hands of the
GOOD FELLOW editor for assign
ment to readers of this newspaper
who desire to spread a little Christ
mas happiness the while they are
securing their own happiness over
the gladstone season.
Case For Everybody
No matter what YOU are able to
do for the suffering humanity Of
| Washington, there is case on the
files OF the GOOD FELLOW edi-

to help.

and red and white broom that the
little girl wants. They don't have

girls of her type don't discriminate
that closely.
Somewhere in this city there
man who can't do much work but
who can watch somebody's place
OF business and perhaps keep the
furnace running all night.
While the GOOD FELLOW cam

money, the case of the woman
whose furniture is IN storage is a

enterprising young man or woman
should be able to collect half OF
the money needed to release that

this time Of year they'd listen to

| dinners-she will have been assured
OF that before you read these lines.
Her case was mentioned as typical

LOW campaign is embracing.
The poor want everything from
toys to trains and from coal TO
cabbage. And Washington is dump.
Ing it in on them in a manner
that has never equaled before.
All Cared For
At the close of business Satur.
day, every family which had asked
the GOOD FELLOW editor to be-
friend 1t, had been assigned to some
person in an altruistic mood.
This morning dozens of new
volunteers to do GOOD FELLOW
work were received, and by night

The TIMES Is not collecting
money, it is collecting names;
names Of the rich and the poor
alike, and then one is introduced
to the, other-that's all there is to
| the GOOD FELLOW movement
We find the cases and you take
care of them in your own, modes:
way. Do just as much for your
family as your resources permit
and If there's still something left
undone. write the GOOD FELLOW
editor and he'll get somebody else
to do the rest.
1t sounds easy, and it IS easy.
