Only 4 Days
Left to Join
City's 400
TOUR shopping days remain in
Il Clothe-a-Child.


Only four days N which to take
a boy or girl from homes where
no holly and no mistletoe will
hang.
Only four days in which to pro-
vide clothing stockings, shoes,
coats - for those too young to
complain in stentorian tones and
too old in the worlds ways to be-
lieve that their plants would be
heard.
Only four days to go into homes
where stockings don't hang at
Christmas because they're worm
both meanings of the word.
Only four days to receive
child's name from the Clothe-a-
Child editor of The indianapolis
shops glittering with tinsel, with
Times and take that child into
counters laden with warm ap-
parel.
Only four days to watch his
smile as you let a clerk try on his
coat.
For promptly at p. m. Satur-
day, the 1888 Clothe -a-Child drive
will close. You have until as late
as you can shop on Saturday
night to get your boy or girl.
The list is divided evenly be-
tween boys and girls. If you don't
ask for too many young children,
the age you desire can be sup
piled.
CLUBS, groups in office build
~ ings and firms, fraternities
and sororities can band together
to join Clothe-a- Child.
Organize a shopping commit
tee, committee to visit your
childs home. See at first hand
the plight of a city's children and
give them your hand to lift them
out of that plight this Yuletide.
Each name on the Clothe-a-
Child list has been investigated
for worth and need by the social
service department of the public
schools and relief agencies of the
Community Fund.
The relief agencies can not pro-
vide your boy or girl with Christ
mas. They work the other days
of the year. You alone can be his
adopted Santa and bring warmth
in clothing that serves as gift
that is remembered every time a
coat is buttoned, a shoe is laced.
Call Riley 5551 for your child.
