Today the work that is to ho expected of the Good follows is outlined more In detail. The Goodfellows are to be Santa Clauses, Kris Krlngles, good St. Nicholases for the poor kiddles of Augusta. It Is amazing how many hearthstones will be bare th4s Christmas. It Is more than amazing to learn that In many Augusta homes there are no hearthstones. II Ih sad to see how many little stockings are so for lorn and woebegone that If apples are dropped Iri at the top they will run out through the holes in the toes and heels. In Augusta are a number of good charities. Their good deeds will not he lessened. Their fields will not be usurped. The Herald endeav ors only to assist those who need assistance. It will assist them through l he usual organizations. The Herald seeks to be a ’’Clearing House of Good Deeds."

Every Good fellow will be rewarded. Ills name will be printed In the column de voted to beneficence on this Christinas season. Look Into the sad faces. Wouldn’t It bp a charming idea to make them glad faces. The Associated Charities and the Salvation Army are both potent factors in lighting up the care scarred visages. You, read er, may have grown callous. Maybe you have forgotten the teachings of your sympathetic childhood days. Maybe the old mother who taught you to pray at her knee Is no longer here to guide you. Wouldn’t It be a rare tribute to her memory to do a "Good Deed” this (Jhristmnstlde? The first member of the Goodfellows’ Club Is yet to be enrolled. Who will be the first to send In Ids name? It doesn’t matter what you can give, the “Recording Angel” will not question you.

Write a letter do It. tonight—to the Secretary of the Goodfellows’ Club, care of The Herald, telling what you think of the Goodfellows’ club.
