Pittsburgh, Dec. 19. Pp-Nlore than 12,ooO Pittsburgh children will have toys this Christmas be- cause. Of an incident that happen cd 5l years ago.
 At Christmas time in 1893 two little girls, playing in an alley, told Major F. W. A >e'--mons they hadn't neure about santa Claus.
 Their story prompted him to talk witL his friend, George l.. Bond. The result was that 25 chil- dren received toys that Christmas - old toys the two men collected and repaired.
 The next year distribution was expanded -- to POO children. When Major Simmons left Pittsburgh in 1906 the number lad run into thou sands.
 Since then Bond has carried on simply because he likes the work and believes toys are necessary 10 proper development Of tue child"
 It is all volunteer work. Even Bonds Christmas mission quarters are reut-fFco. His helpers are wealthy business men, society Wo- men - and those children now adults, who received gifts from Bonds toy mission years ago.
 No toys are made, but they are collected throughout the yoar - principally rom the rich and near rich Tho work Of cleaning ani repairing rises to high tide near Christmas.

COSMIC RAY SAID

YienneSe Doctor Claims Celestial
 Origin for Discovery

New York, Dec. 19 lPl - Tn the first issue Of tIe American Journal Of Cancer it is denied that cosmic rays are a cause Of cancer.
 A summary of the contents or this journal was made public today It IS announced as the frst Ameyi- can publication having sufficient financial endowment to cover the cancer field completely for informa- ton Of physicians
 Aided by Foundation
 The Journal IS published with aid or The Chemical foundation ot which Francis P. Garvan ot New York is president.
 Professor John j0ly Of Trinity college, DubItu." says the Journal 'publishad last June a suggestion that cosmtc rays may have some thing 10 do with increase Iu can- Uar.
 "Th-sc cosmlc rays come 10 earth presumably from distant space and resemble N-rays and the gamma rays ol radjum in that tlsy can penetrate thick layers of mat Ter without losing much Of their emergency.
 Tn this regard they arc he most powerful rays tL.t We know gr.ar- ly exceeding The -.uma rays ot radiuln. for after passing through 200 feet Of water. two per cent re- main. Their actual quantity. how ever, is extraordinarily small
 Speculation Sensational
 Professor Joly lays before inc world a sensational speculation suz- gesting that tla present increase in cancer in its various forms may be explained as due 10 disappearance in recent time ot a controlling fac tor which acted lu rhe same mau- ner as N-rays or gamma rays upon animal tissg4s.

the central Plains states and ex-
IRENE southern Texas. Light rains
occurred within the last "a hours In
the Great Lakes region and along
the south Atlantic coast. Temporal

Northwest this morning. but still
un~seasonably high in the southern
states.
