shoes are knotted with broken-off
laces.
Brother and sister of man are

donors in The Times campaign.
Fourteen ushers and doormen of
the Indiana theater staff notified
the "Clothe-a-Child" editor that
they would band together to give
one boy a suit with pockets he can
stick his hands in pridefully, as
well as other clothing.

Gassaway, Leroy Mckenzie, Beryl
Ricketts,, Robert Wade, Don
Wright, H. McMullen, Robert
TAYLOR, R. Richly, o. Stoup, Gilt

The "Clothe-a-School-Child"
plan ATTEMPTS but one thing and
that is to give every child in the
city a decent chance to go to
school in clean, warm, comfort
able clothing.
THE Community Fund and its
relief agencies cannot hope to
concentrate their entire fund on
Christmas alone, for they operate
the entire twelve months. So The
Times seeks to aid, with the help
of Indianapolis citizens in this
time of stress.

a-SchooI- Child is to pledge that
you'll supplant his or her ragged
clothing with warm, clean outfit.
So call The Times Clothe a
Child Editor and he'll give you q

Christmas. for school after Christ
mas, and for just as many months
of the year as wool and other
clothes will last.
