Yes, You'llGet
Toys This Xmas

Editors note: Here is the story
of a youngster who this Christmas
will benefit from the Northwest
Times Jackson st. Community
Council used toy drive which ends
Tusday, Nov. r.
I'm six years old and just start
ing school. It's fun to do things at
school but at home we don't have
anything to play with. Mommy
says we get so dirty all the time
but playing outside in the dirt is
the only thing we can do. 1 have
three little sisters and one brother.
If we had trike or o wagon and
some dolls and balls we'd have
some fun and like 1t better stay
ing at home.
We all know it's been hard for
mommy and daddy to get us any
thing. Mommy is sick and daddy
has to stay at home to take care
of us because the doctor said she
would have to stay in bed all the
time now until her new baby is
born in January. We've got food
to eat now and a place to stay but
we wish that we had things like
other kids.
Wouldn't it be nice ii Santa
Claus came to our house this year?
He's always seemed to pass by
our house before.

November II

just 81 years ago today, the first
World War officially ended -'on the
18th hour of the 18th day of the 18th
month That conflict cost the world many
military casualties. Unreasonable human
suffering, and billions of dollars
Since then, the world has been en-
broiled in second World War which
ended hostilites on August, 1915.
When you hear the whistles blow
today. preserve moment of silence in
honor of these world war dead and
i'll hope that the peace treaties, the final
act to end war, will be signed soon to
conclude World War II.

the policy has inflicted upon Ameri-
can citizens.
All of the letters were signed by
Masaoka.
Masa Okla pointed out that. when
this situation first came to the at
tention of the JACB Ado. 1t urged
that the American army IN Japan
deny all its facilities to Australian
troops until and unless Australia
made It's army facilities available
to all American personnel, without
restriction based on color or ances-
try The American army however,
said this was inadViSable.

If had million would quietly search for those e- derly women, most of them mothers, who through no fault of their own obliged in their sunset years to go out to work washing scrubbng dusting the offices and homes of others.
 These heroic souls who must earn their way to the end of the trail whose gray hair the symbol of Amer icaS best WOmanhood desire only the peace and tentment of home and freedom from worry, work and fear
 Build, If you will, your great monuments and memo ras give your bonuses the return soldiers who are still able to work; but surely individual, city or State could do better than to provide generously for those who have given much to many and who ask in return so very little
