Old Age Insurance

A safe program for old age insurance is
sound investment. Many people today can
assure themselves a safe old age by sound,
careful, cautious investment.
Some of the unfortunate old ladies and gentle
men today would have been saved from the
difficult straits in which they now find them
selves, if they had invested wisely rather
than following "Will-o-the-Wisp" fy-by-
night, get-rich-quick schemes.
The Better Business Bureau sells nothing

in the town charter of Takoma
Park are expected to be presented
to Mayor Frederick L. Lewton

Harry w. Nice, which would have
made sweeping changes in the
present charter, is expected to re-
new its fight for changes tonight

to the charter.
Chief among the alterations ad-
vocated before by the club is a
change in a ward system of vot-
ing, with the establishment of six
wards, with a member of the town
council elected from each ward,
instead of the present mode of one
polling place for the entire town

Last week New York left Bar

OF course, keeping tabs on
the well-dresSed man in the

an actress steps out with her
spouse it's hard to tell whether
ne has a different suit on every
night or she just has a diff

Then, again. there are two

Letters BY the Dozen

of Boys, Girls
By THE GOOD FELLOW EDITOR

BY THE GOOD FELLOW EDITOR
Dozens of letters and requests
asking for help are coming in
every day. They all tell the same
story-jobless fathers, deSpairing
mothers, anxious little boys and
girls.
But for the kindness Of
strangers, there will be many chill
dren's hearts filled with the Bit
tereSt of despair Christmas morn
ing when they find that Santa
has forgotten them. And it Is a
question who suffers the most on
empty Christmas mornings, the
the helpless little children or their
heartsick parents.
Be a Good Fellow. Make at
least one child or family happy
by joining The Washington Times
annual Christmas Good Fellow
Club campaign.
Names Available
The Good Fellow Editor will
furnish the names of as many
persons or families, adults or chill
dren, as the Good Fellow wishes.
If your sympathieS incline to-
ward families with children, we
will have many from which to
select your own Christmas fam
lily. Or if you prefer an aged
couple, we will have them. too. We
will have. we regret to say. almost
any type of family or person you
have in mind to help. The boun-
daries of poverty and despair are
limitleSS.
If you wish to be a Good Eel
low this year, notify the Good
Fellow Editor, as early as possible.
You can do so by mail, telephone,
or In person at The Washington
Times Building, between the hours
of 9 and 5.
Eight dollar a week for a
family of four, when six dollars
of it has to go toward rent each
week, doesn't leave anything for
Christmas presents or holiday
goodies. The remaining two
dollars scarcely keep the family
from hunger.
Wife Still Ill
The father of this family came
in to see the Good Fellow Editor.
Hating to ask for help, but not
knowing how else he could supply
his little family with a Christmas,
the man told his story. A wife
lust home from the hospital and
still sick, and with two small
children-a four-year-old boy and
a six-year-old girl-there abso-
lutely will be nothing for them
at Christmas unless some Good
Fellow helps.
A basket of simple food. a few
clothes and a toy or two for the
children, will make this. group
happy for the holiday.
! A 16-year-old girl writes asking
some Good Fellow to give her four
younger brothers and sisters a
happy Christmas.
Letter Tells Story
Her letter tells the story:
my father is out of work. He
told my smallest brother and sis
ter that Santa is dead. I don't
want anything for myself. If I
am sure that we will have some
thing to eat I would have very
happy Christmas. Daddy does not
know about this letter, but things
are so bad I had to do something,
because I am afraid it will not be
Christmas for the little ones, as
they say Daddy is only fooling. "
There is nothing we can add to
this plea. The girl has learned too
soon the lesson of poverty, and so
expects nothing. But she finds it
hard to accept the fact that her
younger brothers and sisters might
be similarly neglected.
The children in this family are
three boys, ages 6, II and 13; an
11-year-old girl and, of course, the
writer of the letter.
