WEDNESDAY EVENING, DECEMBER 15, 1926. CITY. UTAH Work for Men or Women Would Be Gift Liked By Good Fellows of Ogden ORK is desired MS a Christmas present by many parents of Ogden children who -will be without Christmas cheer excepting as they are provided for by the Good Fellows. The first reports on Good FBI- low Investigations have revealed that there are numerous Instances where there are seeking work but unable to fine! it To these parents a contribution of a job for a few days, a we ek or month will be a real Christmas present, for It will help them to help themselves. The Good Fellows will be glad to receive any word regarding prospective employers for either men or women.

One Ogden woman writes to the Good Fellows: -Tour cause is a worthy one and one to be commended. But wouldn't it be better if you could find employment for the parents of these children? (Those who have parents.) My husband and I have been unfortunate in get- tins employment and would greatly appreciate if you would help us find any good honest work for the next three months at least, please help us If you can." OTHER BETTERS. Dozens of letters are reaching the Good Fellows every day which little children arc appealing for Santa Claus to come and asking the Good Fellows to aid them In securing a visit of the children's patron saint. One of these letters follows: "Dear Good Fellows: I wish Santa Claus would come to our door this Christmas. Mamma says she can't buy anything for us.

I -wish Santa Claus would give me a bicycle and my sister wishes a tricycle. I am 10 years old and my sister Is five years. Mamma dont feel much good so I wish would remember her, too." letters of this nature are referred to business and professional men of Ogden, members of the Good Fellows' organization, for complete investigation and those things necessary to provide Christmas cheer in such homes are through Good Fellow funds. Another letter received. today by the Good Fellows follows: "Dear Good Fellows: I am writing to see if you will remember us on Christmas.

We have no father. He was killed with lightning and our baby Is too small for mamma to work. "I am 10 years old an we have six children. The baby is nine months old. We need some groceries.

The two little Txys need a pair of overalls each, ages and 5 years. Me a pair of slippers, size "We all need a pair of stockings sizes S. two pair 5. and 5. I have a little sister nine years old that wants a doll and one seven wants a doll buggy, the two boys a toy truck.

I would like a box of water colors, the baby rubber ball. S. If you can, mamma a pair of slippers, size 6. The ones she has has holes in and gets her damp." 14 YEARS' EFFORTS. While everything that is sought In letters sent to the Good Fellows can not be provided from the limited funds secured each year, it is possible through the Christmas-time co-operation of Ogden people to secure the most essential articles for such homes.

Keference of the more severe cases to organizations which can provide further them In the late winter is also practicable. The Good Fellows' organization is carried on each year by men, women and children of the city who desire to extend Christmas cheer into each home. For 14 years the work has been going Each year hundreds of people have enrolled in the Good Fellows, some through civic clubs and fraternal organizations that give contributions, others through individual subscriptions of from a few pennies to a few dollars. That the Good Fellows of Ojrden win respond once more through signing the coupon printed in The Ogden Standard-Examiner and sending their checks or cash contributions to the Good Fellows is course anticipated and plans for the Christmas distribution are being made with that expectation. oo COTJET DEFERS MOTOR CAR CASE Suit of J.
