Thirteen-Year-Old Boy
Leaves Brother on Step
MCKEESPORT, Pa., Jan. 28.—'Thir
teen year old Rill Smith of Cleveland
will be glad to learn today that the
10-month-old baby he left on the door
step of the home of Mrs. Joseph Kin
zel is being well taken care of.
Bill, according to a note he left,
said the baby was his brother, Clif
ford, and that owing to the fact that
he was unable to find work, he was
compelled to abandon it for a time,
but when he found a job he would
pay the baby's temporary keepers well
for their care.
Mrs. Kinzel found the baby on her
step, wrapped in a ragged blanket. In
it also was a can of condensed milk
and some extra clothing. The note
read:
Dear Frienus: l can’t keep
the baby, for I started out to get
work and could not get it. He
has no mama or papa. He is 10
months old. I am only 13 years
old and if you will keep him I will
be back in a few weeks for him.
We are the only ones alive in our
family. Please keep him and 1
will try and get a job and pay you
well. Please be good to him. His
name is Clifford Smith. I am his
brother Bill. We are from Cleve
land.
j Touched by the note Mrs. Kinzel
promises the best care and municipal
j authorities are talking of creating a
fund for the baby’s support. If broth
er Bill can be found he will also be
given a home.

NOT STEAM HEAT
FOR LONDONERS
LONDON, Jan. 28.—Despite the
rapid modernization of London, the
great metropolis is not to have the
advantage, most desirable in a cli
mate as uncertain as that of Lon
don, of central steam heating in
its new houses now being erested
by the London County Council for
middle-class tenants.
The Housing Committee of the
council recently reported that, in
view of the present legal restric
tions, the cost of such heating in
stallation would be prohibitive.
FOR SALE—Dried Silver Salmon for
dog feed at 10 cents a lb. See C.
