A momentous occurance is about to be pulled off within our midst, which for down-right interest to you, me and every true-blue, law- abidin’ citizen of this grand old Dis- trict of Columbia has the Genoa con- ference, German reparations and troubles in China groggy on the ropes a-prayin’ for the gong! v Tomorrow afternoon, May 22, 1922, at 3:45 o'clock, in the presence of the Chief of our unbeatable nation, the Washington and Chicago Amer- ican League base ball clubs will cross bats in a regular, boney-fidy, sched- uled game for the benefit of the Children's Hospital of Washington, D. C., Capital of these United States of Ameriea, and the fairest city on God's green earth! The affair will be held under the auspices of the Lions Club of Washington, one of the most rip-snortin’, roarin’, on-the- trigger civic-betterment outfits to be found within the length and breddth of the great ten-mile-square! The Marine Band will do the fiddlin' and Count Nickola Stanislaus Altrocksky will preside as announcer in person! There's the whole story, folks, told in one paragraph! But for the bene- fit of them of you who ain’t familiar with the aims and activities of the noted institootion, how's it's run, and what a record-breakin’ attendance at tomorrow's game will mean to the thousands of little ones it keers for each year, I'm gonna scribble a few dee-tails concernin’ the big hap- penin’! Lifetime Furnsture Is More Than a Name Seventh Strect MAYER E"J’ CO. Eetwam D &E Hospital Needs Support. To start with, lemme say briefly that the Children’s Hospital depends for its support entirely upon the skimpy appropriations by Congress, the meager bank accounts of its private patients, the charity ball, a swell event held every year by the rich and grand of the city, and the voluntary sweetenin’s chipped in by| its patro I he only kid's hospital in this neck of the woods, and brats of every race, color, creed and clan are equally welcome the flowers in lp;l:‘l ] t In the big Instit: e equipment In the big Institoo- tlon, d the doctors end nurses who look after the ‘needs of the patients are second to none in the land, and don’t have to take dust from nothin’ in the runnin’! But like everything age, it tAkes a mess o' p- the doors open, and right now, try as its managers do, the great home for the sick is runnin’ / behind about $1.500 per month! But th doors shall never close! Tl Not long as one drop of blood re-m; in the arms and legs of sich sterlin’ citizens as Cuno H.
