."Now do you blame me for being

Right now I need worsa than any

But even In distributing undercloth

underclothing to wear at any tint dur
ing the aro weather, tha Associated
Charities finds It must eserclse care.
For there ar mothers who throw out
the underclothing given them ff It Is
not just to their taste, or if It needs
wsshlng. 8omtlms tha organisation.
In .a hurry to help a ease, assumes thst
tha mother will 'wash tha old garments
ent for their children. In eotne cases,
of course, they aasuroa correctly. In
others, however, the mothers will throw
out or burn a garment that does not
just suit their testa. And tha Innocent
child suffers as much aa before.
Tares HajaJree) Tmmlkl Helped.
This month will be a record-breaker In
tha number of families helped by the
Associated Charities. Already too fami
lies have been helped, and there are three
mora days In tha month. December wss
a record-breaker thus far, but January
Is going to exceed It.
Unemployment, of course, Is still the
big problem. "I hop when tha welfare
board geta busy It will take up tha un
employment problem and do something,"
aid Mrs. Dome. "That la after all the
Mg problem. I think Mr. Jardlne Is on
the right track In putting city prisoners
to work on toe streets. After a while
when we find tha bead of a family who
Is able-bodied and wilt not work to sup
port his family wo can at least arrest
him for nonsupport sad put hlra to work
on the streets to give him a taste of
work."
Fiade Inelde Jeh.
The father of eight small children hss
been put to work at an Inside job at Mi
a month, after the Associated Charities
hss carried tha family practically for
two years. The Associated Charities got
him the Job, now that his tubercular
condition has been cured, and he Is
considered more nearly able-bodied than
he has been for some years. This man
tiled hard to supjiort this large family.
Repeatedly he sought out Jobs with the
help of the Associated Charities, and as
regularly failed to hold them on account
of his physical condition. Weak as ha
waa he stumbled out to the lea harvest
and tried to ho d a Job there. But It
takes a full-chested man, standing
squarely on his feet, to hold a job Ilka
that, and he had to give It up. It was
then thst the Associated Charities finally
located him the job at inside work at I14.
The eldest of the eight children la It
yeara old. Two cHlldrcn have been bora
in the family since they have been re
relvlng regular help from charity.
J New Emperor of
China Declines to
Stand on Ceremony
(Correspondetve of the Aseoclated Press.)
PEKINO, Jan. J. Much Confusion has
arisen since Tuan Shi Kal e acceptance
of the emperorship because of the uni
versal desire of Chlnesa officials to "save
their face" and not do anything which
will violate tradltlone and make them
ridiculous according to ancient practices
and Onnfurlan customs.
Many rrnlgnatlons have been submitted
by offlclala who erf here strictly to the
ancient belief thst the Tatars snd the

superior rank to another can never per

A deelre to prevent hie former super

the following Mandate, designed to spare
the dignity of Influential offlclala ha doea
not care to leave tha government service
and become hla opponent:
"In consideration of my mean virtue,
it ought to be Impoaelble for me to be

on account of the many difficulties of the
time which I have met with, I cannot
ahlft the burdens from my shoulders.
But at every moment I fee that my

upon thin Ice. Of lata I have received
many dispatches and telegram from
the provinces, tha Benders of which style

Dutch Socialists
Plan Campaign for
Peace in Europe
(Correspondence of tha Associated PreaaV
AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Jsn. .
Dutch socialists conceive It to be their
special task to bring together their com
rades of the belligerent nations for com
mon sction against the war. In this, they
have not succeeded, owing chiefly to the
refueal of the French and German so
cialists to co-operate to thla end. accord
ing to J. H. Schaner. the principal spokes
man of the social-democratic party at
Its conference Just held here.
Competition fomented by capitalism,
Mr. Schaper declared, was tha cauaa of
the European war, and it redounds to
the credit of the socialists of all nations
thst they have said everything against It.
"Eicept In (Jet-many." Interrupted a
heckler, whereupon, rVheper angrily re
torted that In Berlin two daya before tha
war, the streets resounded with anti-war
songs and orlee for peace. The speaker
denied that the war had shown the fal
libility of socialists principles, and af
formed that on the contrary they had
fully Justified themselves. The war, he
oontened. haa proved that socialism la not
an unattainable Ideal, and ho pointed
out that the stats regulation of food
supplies and the establishment ot maxi
mum prices on the necessaries ot life,
as adopted at the present time In most
European countries, was the first step
towarda the realisation of the socialistic
Idea, of distribution.
Whether war will be possible when
socialism Is adopted as a basis of govern
ment waa a question he said could not
be answered directly. He saw severe pres
sure upon the workers owing to the de
mands of all governments for rearma
ments after tha war; but socialism would.
at the same time, gain great Influence
Those who returned from the battle
field would reallie the misery wrought
by militarism, and join in the atrugaie
for democracy against secert diplomacy.

There Is a certain little fellow Intw

did not appear to be naturally present.
The son of a poor family of the aelsh-

"You krlow Tom. that poor boyT" ha

"Tou are mamma's own sweet little)
