Another Washington family today

liberal citizens to The Stars holiday
appeal for relief OF 20 sorely stricken
homes.
A crippled mother and her three

received definite assurance this morn
ing that all their wants will be provided
Tor during the coming year, as the goal
of 1920 for their aid was oversubScribed
with incoming gifts. An excess Of 1881
will be applied to the two remaining
cases, Opportunities Nos. and IA.
On the basis of latest calculations
approximately $2l2 is needed to close
Opportunity No. 3 and about sl33 to
close Opportunity No. IA and wipe the
slate clean. That makes total OF ap-
proximately $345 still required to reach
the grand goal of the appeal, sl0.7l7.20.
The Star earnestly hopes that this
end, so that the New Year Will bring
to each OF the 20 unfortunate homes a
message of real, tangible happiness and
hope.
touching contribution today came
from a group of eight children, who
Clipped in with their pennies and dimes
to raise one dollar toward the deficit
in the fund. The youngsters desired
that this money be placed to the credit
OF Opportunity No. 9. but since that
case is closed The Star is taking the
liberty of splitting the sum among the
two remaining opportunities.
