Thristmas Bhopping:
: _‘_ i?‘. By Helen Welshimer _ :_;T«
A MERRY little trio clasping pennies in each hand,
X Made me stop and think this morning of another little band.
Their eyes were bright and eager as they reached the Christmas store,
While I watched them from across the street, as they came near the door.
For they brought me back a vision of three youngsters of their size,
Who used to roam the corner store a-searching for a prize.
\V'HEN our pocketbooks were slender and we had to practice thrift,
And the corner store provided every kind of Christmas gift.
A big red apple on a plate once took my childish eye,
I was glad that someone marked it with a price sc I could buy;
For ['ll never feel the raptures when I reach a fairer clime
Of the day I bought a present for my mother, with a dime.
ONCE more a chubby little hand is slipped within my own;
I forget that T am standing on a corner all alone.
Our heads are close together and our plans are running high;
There’s a gold ring on the counter, and we cannot pass it by.
Though our father thanked us for it, then, we could not understand
Why he hid the gift and never seemed to wear it on his hand.
IT is locked up with his treasures, and its gold has turned to brass,
And the years have brought more wisdom to a little lad and lass.
But no Christmas gifts were given in.all the mighty land,
More freighted with devotion than that little golden band;
And perhaps that is the reason that our money would buy more
When we used to do our shopping at the old-time corner store.
SO I hoped the other three would know the bargains we had found,
When we used to do our shopping, choose our gifts and look around.
That they might reap the aftermath of Christmas hope and joy,
And the olden love of shopping of a little girl and boy
Who'd like to take them by the hand, and slip through time's closed
door,
And do their Christmas shopping at some other corner store.

JUNIOR ASSEMBLY
HOSPITALIZES
NEGRO GIRL
Several days ago an Athens doc
tor informed the Junior Assembly
that a three weeks old negro girl
was in dire need of medical atten
tion and that it was imperative
to the child’s life that she be
placed in a hospital at once. With
one of the purposes of the assem
bly to save lives, the child wds
sent at once to General hospital
for medical attention and treat
ment,
~ The assembly placed the childin
:(}eneral hospital at their expense‘
’as the negro family was not able
‘to pay for medical attention nec
lossary to save her life. The child
has been ill for some time and
!even now there is not an over
|ahundance of hope for life due to
a very severe case of stomach
".rnuhlp. It is hoped however that
with the proper observation and
treatment the child will soon be
able to retain the proper nourish
ment that is given her. TUnless
the troubles are corrected at a
\very near date there is little hope
that the child will ever grow to
enjoy a stocking from “Santa’
Claus”. 9 ‘
’ This child is only cne of a very
large family and prospects for a
happy Christmas looks quite dim
for them.
This case is only one of the
many that the assembly placed in
| the hospital from time to time for
operations, medical attention and
observation. Assembly members a®
well as all Athenians are watching
| the progress that the child is
making with eager eyes in hopes
that life will be hers and feeling
lconfident that the wery best of
{ care is being given her by both
ithe hospital attaches and doctors
| of Athens.

The Salvation Army
The cause for which their
labor sets forth, deserves un
stinted and liberal co-opéra
tion. Rain, snow or sleet they
bravely work for those less
fortunate, and reach humanity
as probaply no other organi
zation can or ever will,
They are before us daily on
the street corners patiently
waiting for contributions dealt
out in small coins to make
some poor soul happy. They
know where warm clothing
and nourishing food is most
needed.
Not only are they embued
with the Christmas spirit, but
their energies never wane
throughout the entire year.
The opportunity is at hand to
make some donation, which
will carry a note of cheeriness
and real comfort.
One of the greatest services
in our power is before us, and
it is comforting and hearten
ing to see how unflagging they
carry on from early morning
until late at night. May the
ringing of their Dbells call
each and every one to do their
bit.
