NEtV CARSON DEAN
PRACTICAL WOMAN
ON WAY TO COMPLETION
Parents from nil purls of Philadelphia
i And vicinity today congratulated M. D.
" Grimih, head of tho Charities Bureau of the
Cliamber of Commerce, for hid crusade
against tho street-corner Santa the pseudo
St-' Nick with horsehair whiskers who
taken his place on the business thorough
tares during tho Christmas shopping season.
Convinced that he has tho backing of nil
.Intelligent parents of tho community. Mr,
Grfmth said today that ho would keep on
the trail of all organisations which havo
iot agreed to abandon tho fake Santa.
. ...,y 'Colonel Christopher C. Herron, head of
itho Philadelphia branch of tho Volunteers
,of America, has already agreed to co
operate with tho Charities Bureau and for-
, ever banish tho street-corner St. Kick, but
-an organization known as tho American
ss Ilescuo Workers, which establishes fnkc
Santas on tho streets every Yulctido, Is still
"holding out."
PUESEnVING SWRE-rtLCaEND
' One of Mr. GrUIUh's principal reasons
for banishing tho fnko Santa Is that tho
man with tho fale whiskers and cheap
cheesecloth suit destroys one of tho sweet
est legends of childhood. He said:
"Oho parent In congratulating tho Chari
ties Bureau for Its stand against tho fako
, Bdrtta told mo that for three or four years
ho had not taken lt(s children Into tho shop-
felnjr district during tho holiday season be
'cause he was afraid that tho sight of tho
,tnan with tho falso whiskers would destroy
- -the Santa Claus Illusion of his little ones,
'Bo, becauso of the fake Santa, tho chll
,dren of this man had to forgo tho pleasure
.'of visiting tho toy departments of the
.'tores.
"When we know of the Joy which the
Santa Claus legend brings to childhood, wo
should spare no effort In safeguarding that
'.legend. I believe that the splandld example
'set by Colonel Christopher C. Herron, of
the Volunteers of America, In co-operating
With tho bureau will causo other organiza
tions to get Into lino.
STItEET GIVING OP LITTLE USD
"I received a letter today from Colonel
Richard C. Holz, of tho Salvation Army, In
Which he stated that ho was also opposed
to the Santa Claus Idea. Ho pointed out
Kthat his street collectors during the Chrlst
'man shopping Beason were offlcers of tho
Salvation Army. He said that this system
,waB carried out In cities all over the coun
jtry, and that a great amount of money
(Was received In this mnnnor. Ho said this
jnoney was used to pay for tho Christmas
dinner and for" winter rellof work.
j" "But the Charities Itureau Is opposed to
street solicitation of any sort, and we shall
jSWork toward Its entire elimination. Wo
'.have Innumerable records to show that even
jwhen large sums are gathered in by street
solicitation only n relatively small propor
tion of tho sum contributed by tho public
.ever reaches tho real beneficiaries. Wo -do
, not mean to Imply by this that thero was
' any dishonesty In tho administration of tho
.funds, but the expenses of collecting were
Too great that thcit was very little left to
apply to tho pur for which It was In-
' tended.
"Tho Charities Bureau finds that both the
i Volunteers of America and the Salvation
Armyi nro doing splendid work In their ro--epcctlvo
fields. Thero Is no question that
iirj cases qf fallen men and women tho
'psychology of rel'g.on can bo employed
ftwlth remarkable results In restoring selfr
Srespectto bucH persons."
Ceatlnetit from Tsiro One
emphasized In many schools and are taught
In such a. way that does not fit Into tho
modes of living of today wo can moro rcad
ly account for this artificiality,
"A young child must not bo "bossed' too
much. It must be allowed to wash Its Imndi
In Its own way, to help fill tho radiator of
tho automobile, or to put the biscuits In
tho oven then It will develop Initiative and
oilglnallty. Severn! generations ngo tho
majority of children lived on farms or In
small towns nnd had opportunity to sec
tho blacksmith nt work or to help In rank
ing sausage, hut nowadays n child cannot
sco how things nro dono In tho modern
factory. If ho looks Into tho window, ho Is
drlveh nwny.

with a tendency to turn nut girls trained
merely to be domestic servants There nri

COMMUTERS' PLEA

of reduced rates, nnmely, tho rcstorntlon
of friendly feeling townrd their patrorw.
"comks a mttm: lati:"
Henry Wolfo Hlklc, nssltnnt general
counsel of tho Pennsylvania, said that
Messrs, Shcrtz and IPerson knew that tho
negotiations between tho carriers nnd com
muters wero In a process of nmlcablo set
tlement. 'They did not enter tho negotiations," ho
said, "nor did thoy nsk to bo tnken In them.
I know nothing of tho proposition thoy had
to oubmlt until today. Tha new proposi
tion comes a Utile late."
The problems bofore tha commission, he
said, narrowed themselves down to the
question of the rensonableness of the rail
road's proposnl to establish a minimum
ralo of ten cents a rldo for fifty-trip tickets
ort stations within Beven miles of Broad
Street Station.
IlAHilltlOlAID CLAIMS
In this connection he pointed out the
following:
Tho smnll advances sugested for the
Btatlons within tho sevcn-mllo limit
nffect only tho scml-occnslonal riders.
Tho commission has recognized the
reasonableness of establishing mini
mum fares. As nn Illustration of this
ho cited tho Fortieth Street Station
controversy.
There nro ccrtnln expenses which nro
fixed whether tho pnssengcr Is carried
ono mllo or a hundred. These ex
penses nro ns grcnt for a passenger
carried from Ilroad Street Station to
Ovorbrook ns ono carried from Broad
.street to Coatesvllle. '
Tho actual cost of '.londllng each pas
senger nt Broad street, Irrespective of
tho distance ho travels, Is eight cents.
Tho short-dlstnnco commutation
travel nilds Inrgely to Jho expense of
running trains
Short-dlstnnco riders ndd largely to
tho coHt of budding nnd maintaining a
terminal like Broad Street Stntlon.
Tho rlg:u of n rnllroad to a minimum
chnrgo was recognlicd last spring by
Congress.
Short distance commuters using
Broad Street Station rldo exclusively
over somo of tho most costly nnd vnl
imtiln stretches of rnllroad In the world.
These portions of tho road represent
Investment of millions of dollars per
mile.
No ono has yet nsserted that tho
minimum farces proposed nro unreason-
nblc.
