The Christmas season is drawing near, and the money needed to give the under-privileged children of the community the suMerry Christmas' which "Uncle" Nichols provided for in a trust fund is still to be obtained. The Journal and Courier is attempting to supplant this fund with one raised by popular subscription. from friends who remember "Uncle" Sammy, from those who desire to do something for the children this year, and from those who realize the worthiness of the cause. Contributions of any amount are acceptable.

One contribution of has been received. another one of $2, and several $1 contributions are already in the fund- more money is needed. Everyone is asked to contribute any amount of money possible. The Christmas spirit is beginning to manifest already, and there are hopes that the goal sought will be reached by the end of next week. Another list of contributors the fund will be published Sunday, along with the amount raised thus far.

If not wish your name mentioned, sign your donation "A Friend" and your donation will be recognized by that name. Chief of Police Frank Kiloran already has set up his organization to secure the items which will included in the packages which will be distributed to the under-privileged children, and to children who otherwise would not receive gifts on Christmas. His organization is entirely voluntary and of the money used will be spent for salaries or for distribution purposes. The city will donate the use of a truck in which the modern Santa Claus will ride. DR.

BRUNO IS SPEAKER AT I. C. FRIDAY MORNING Dr. Bruno, head of the department of social work, of Washington University, addressed Illinois College students Friday morning on the problems of the college trained youth. Dr.

Bruno delved into history of educational development speaking particularly of the present tendency to emphasize the physical sciences. dIe said that advancement must be recognized but the development has been disproportionate in relation with the development of knowledge of what to do with them. We have conquered largely the field of material sciences, have blundered to the situation in which machine has replaced the man. The solution this problem lies with the present generation who must put forth endless etfort and conscientiousstrive remedy the situation. We are do, not isolated group or nation, Dr.

Bruno said, and we cannot rise unless we lift wita us the whole generation. He prophesied the dawn of a new day in which the slave, the negro, the Slav, Chinese, the Hindu as well as the Nordic will find new level of accomplishment substantially the same for all. Dr. Bruno concluded challenging youth to gather best 'St past, add to it idealism and courage and go out to tackle the new problem. The rest of the morning Dr.

Bruno met students who wished to consult him vocations and vocational guidance. CLYDE MARTIN, ORGANIST, WILL PLAY AT CHURCH Doctor Myron L. Pontius has announced the personal appearance of Clyde G.

Martin, the Wausaw (Wis.) Record-Herald says: "The power of music is great and this appeal to the innermost feeling is direct when Clyde G. Martin is the organ. Mr. Martin has a most pleasing sympathetic touch and after all, what is there to music but expression?"

Annual Open Meeting. Sow Changes Color Twice; Was White, Is Now Red Again 8. O. Shuff has on his farm about six miles north of the city perhaps one of the most colorful animals in this part of the country. It 15 a sow which has twice completely changed color.

The sow is two years old. She is a cross between Spotted Poland China and Red Duroc, and as a growing pig was red in color. Last year the sow turned completely white. At that time mention was made in the press of this peculiar circ*mstance. The sow went completely albino.

But now she has regained her red hue regular red hog. No explanation is offered for this remarkability of the sow to alter her color every year. But Mr. Shuff is not the only farmer in that neighborhood who has a color phenomenon among farm animals, A neighbor, Henry Werries, ports that he owns three blue hogs. He purchased the porkers at a sale some time ago.

He does not know what breed they are but he does know that, both the hair and the skin of these hogs are blue. HELD FOR RIOTING Taylorville, Dec.

R. Eyre, agent for the Railway Express Agency in this city. "We know from our experience during previous "that depression matter periods." Mr. Eyre states, no bad the times may be. the holiday season always provides a timely stimulus to business.

Besides, the average family makes many sacrifices to give their children the joys and surprises of the goold old-fashioned Since increased domestic shipping has always been reflected in the express traffic during the holidays, the express company has prepared for a substantial movement of packages during the pre-Christmas period, instructing its 50.000 employees throughout the country to provide prompt and careful handling and to speed deliverles at destination during this season. Over a million and a half of special holiday package address labels, of a new design bearing the words "Do not open until Christmas" are being distributed to the public throughout the country and a supply Is obtainable at the local Railway Express office. As part of the railway system, the express service is now owned by the principal railroads of the country. operating 95 percent of the 225,000 miles of railway lines. Collection and delivery of shipments 15 carried on within the entire corporate limits of this city.

Special care in packing and early shipping of holiday gifts are as important as ever because much of the holiday traffic comes from infrequent shippers. Use plenty of good wrapping paper and twine and if the contents are fragile, so indicate on the package. Special "fragile" and "glass" labels are obtainable for shipments with contents of that nature. The complete and legible addressing of packages is of vital importance as illegible or incorrect "marks" often cause delays in transit. Owing to the growth of so many small towns which have become sizable cities, express people urge that the complete street and number of the receiver of a package be indicated in the address.

Care in writing the names especially when abbreviations are used, is also important. There are dozens of cities and towns of the same name located in different states. If the state is abbreviated in such a way as to suggest the wrong state location. packages may go astray, no matter what care is taken by the transportation people in handling them.
