"The Kansas City Times" (Missouri) Thursday, December 21, 1911 POLICE STATION A TOY SHOP. The detention room at police headquarters in Kansas City, Kas., resembles a toy shop. Walter THOMAS, who has charge of the police department's Christmas tree, spent yesterday afternoon purchasing toys, which are to be distributed to the poor children in that city. Numerous offers of groceries and flour have been made by grocers and millers. ====================================================== (I have no connection with this family but I'd appreciate knowing if you found this posting helpful.) johnobrien@kc.rr.com ======================================================
