A wuman reader has decided to do 80, and wrote to The Evening World suggesting that other readers @might find in this a good way to help to make this coming Christmas the greatest peace and good will festival in the world’s history. A letter to Santa Claus that had reached The Evening World office supplied this volunteer with a family to adopt. She writes “Lam only a wage-earner,” she writes, “but Iam sure I can de- pend on my friends to, co-operate with me in carrying out my plan. “I have decided to give no pres- ents to my friends. I shall, in- stead, visit my Christmas family, learn what gifts the children want Santa Claus to bring, satisfy their needs and give them a Christmas dinner.” The Evening World passes the sug- gestion along. The Salvation Army and other charitable organizations have lists of needy and deserving families, and those who desire to look after “a Christmas family” will have little difficulty in finding the family to adopt. From President F. H. La Guardia, of the Board of Aldermen, came & Aumber of suggestions for extending The Evening World's suggestions. Mr. La Guardia says he fears his: views are too practical and may not be very popular in some quarters, but he of- fers them as they arw: 1, Let the Christmas spirit of 1931 be more than lip service, but let us make it right from the oe Go u Commencing Dec. 16, to and including “Christmas “Day, wholesale grocers and food deaiers to give their retail trude, and the retail trade in turn to the custom- ers, 10 per cent. discount.

The flood stage, twenty-two feet at the Point Bridge, was reached before daybreak, and a few hours later the Ohio was rising three-tenths of a foot an hour, with predictions from the Weather’ Bureau that the crest would be_reached soon after noon. Scores of persons living in the low- lands of the North Side were taken from their homes in boats by the police, while rising water compelled the sus- pension of operations in a number of mills and factories. Repor:s trom points along the Menon- gahela River said the damage would be heavy, but no estimate could be made until the flood had receded. eee cab rece renns cere esser sees eres oss wececccoes Name oo Address ........-.2.- dd thelr mames to yours.
