Five more names are to be added today, to the roll of honor, the list of those char- itable ones who have given to The Evening Star Santa Claus Club fund. There should be thirty instead of five. But the five that have given are just as welcome as though they were 50, The fund is steadl- ly growing, and it is to be expected that in the eleven days elapsing between now and Christmas there will be a good deal of money collected to be distributed through the agencies that have been selected to relieve the poor and distressed of Wash- ington. Maybe by Monday there will be #0 many contributors to this splendid ob- ject that it will no*longer ble to repeat from day to day the names of fore mer givers, but it will be necessary to head the list with that old friend: “Pre- viously acknowledged.” Word comes from the schools that t! wearers of the pretty badges that are sol for 10 cents each for the benefit of the fund are out hard at work in the mission field of charity, and have already collected a good deal of information about the worthy people whose needs are to be re- lieved. It is only to be feared that they, will have too much success in that direc- tion. There need be no alarm about the success of this end of the enterprise. The trouble comes with the collection of enough money to go around, not with the gather- ing of enough poor people's names. Orders for extra badges are still coming in from the schools, and today the Frank- lin sent for 400 more than were originally allotted to that building. That looks like a boom.
