It means some good cheer to those unfortunates in need. It means that many needy and hungry ones, old grandpa and grandma, mother and father, children from little tots up, both boys and girls, will be given something to eat on Christmas time. Little toys to make the little ones happy. Warm things to put on the cold and shivering ones, old and young. To fill the many baskets that the army gives out on Christmas eve day. Baskets that bring happy tears to the old eyes, when they think that God has put it in the hearts of those that have, to give even a little to help make the poor and needy hap py and not to go hungry on Christmas, that sweet and holy day. Now, boys and girls, ydung and old, won't you join in making the Pot Boil. Let's make it boll over, we can do it. Each one cut out one of those "dopes,” “chocolate milks,” and you older boys Just one of those "Belles,” etc., each day as long as the “Pot” is boiling, and put the price in the Pot and watch it bubble and sparkle as you think of some needy one having a loaf of bread or a bite of meat. Think what it means to them to know that for one day they will be able to go to their little bed, be it almost bare of warm clothes. You girls of the Tubman, your bright and happy faces pass by each day. You Academy boys also pass. You little tots of the Central. You young and old that have the “movie” habit. You staid man of bus A. SILVER iness, baker, merchant and all, won't you join in and make the “Pot” boil as never before. ( I am just a hard working man, one that each day's work means much, but I try to visit that Pot each day and drop in my mite, as I know, from my own knowledge of what that Pot means to many hundreds in this city of ours. There is not a day I do not see some one in need, plenty of them too re tired in their need to ask help hut who are actually in want. Little boys and girls shoeless and knowing want of a good meal. I am glad to say I am a personal friend of Adjutant Yates and his family and know of their noble work. I know how they search out the needy, and with kind and loving word, help those destitute ones that charity never fails. Every penny put in that Pot means much. So do not pass it by. Fill it up with pennies, nickels, dimes, from the kiddles and you older ones — those that can. you just drop them in by the handfull. You can do It, So come across every one and we will make hundreds of hearts happy. If you want to see happiness in those who have so little to give it to them visit the army hall on Christmas eve day, their Christmas tree, or any time, and you will sure he awarded by happiness in knowing you, with your mite, helped make the “Pot Boil." . “BRON.” THE IDEAL GIRL. To The Herald. In Saturday’s issue of The Herald “Sincerely” asks for someone to say which of the girls described by him would be the best “catch" for the good, sensible business man. From my point of view I don’t believe either would do. Business men learn from their every-day life not to go in for ex tremes. That is apparent'y what “Sin cerely” has done. Just made one girl the opposite of the other. Why not the girl like this?— One who dresses modestly but up to the moment, with the latest styles; will sip wine when the occasion de mands and enjoys the more refined dances. One who does use cosmetics if they will improve her looks any. 1 don't mean by the last sentence that 1 would like her to use all the latest "aids to beauty." Just a little powder, with like aids. Let her before she Is married carry on the great game of flirting; that is merely a pastime with die feminine sex. Didn't Cleopatra flirt with Marc Antony? But she must curb herself and never flirt with the men whom sh# passes on the boule vard. And last of all one who can take care of herself, to be relied on, who can fight her own battles if need be. But still makes her mother her confidant. And jus* a little advice to the girls who go into business life with the sworn intentions ol’ showing us men how much more intelligent (hey are than we. Don't do it, girts. You blast your matrimonial opportunities right there. Men generally like to be relied on, to be looked up to. So get wise. SIGNOR GENNARO PUNARO VIOLINIST.
