May your joys each day grow brighter, As your duties you discharge, May our love for each grow tighter, And our usefulness enlarge. 'The above poem, written by the late William E, Russell, who died last January, is appearing on Christmas cheer cards this year. Mr. Russell wrote the poem last December and it was accepted by a publishing house, and is flow being distributed as holi day greetings. Mr. Russell was one of1 the most prominent members of the j FlTBt Methodist church. COLDER DAYS BRING OUT PLEA FOR COAL The cold weather of the past week has resulted in number of calls at the office of Township Trustee Edgertoa. During the past ten days, ten tons of coal has been distributed nmong the poor of the city. Compared , with the records of last year, only about one third the amount of relief is given this year than was given last year through this office. The fact that so few men are out of work is the reason assigned by Mr. Edgerton for this condition. There are only twenty families on the regular relief list at the trustee's office.
