At THE Day NURSERY.
THERE WE'RE MANY PLEASANT
SURPRISES FOR THE CHILDREN
YESTERDAY AFTERNOON.
How Christmas Was Observed at h
Institutional Large Tree in the
Play Room-Toys and Luxuries for
Every One-yisitors Received Dur
ing the Afternoon

Christmas festivities were held yes
terday at the Kings Daughters Day
Nursery, and the hours of reception
were from three until five O'Clock. The
home was attraetively decorated and a
beautiful tree was placed in me play
room for the occasion. Many friends
sent in donations and there were candy,
fruit and toys for every one. Fourteen
children enjoyed the treat.
When the ladies in charge had COM
pleted the preparations the little folks
were brought into their favorite apart
ment. Some shouted merrily and 9TH
ers gazed in silent admiration. 1t was
a pleasure to the visitors and others in
terested in the work to see them choose
their toys and to hear the little signs of
contentment over the possession of
some coveted gift. Totally devoid of
the m~ercenary spirit so often mani
tested by older children they laid aside
many an expensive mechanical toy or
beautifully illustrated book to hug
tightly a little woolly dog or rag baby.
1t was indeed refreshing to the mind
to witness the genuine pleasure Of these
little ones. As one present remarked
they are not obliged to say that they
like a thing when they don't, and they
do not know the meaning of a polite
lie. They were certainly happy chill
dren when they closed their eyes in
sleep after their wonderful experiences
of the day.
Several cash donations were received
at the institution with keen apprecia-
ton during the day.
The children's stockings were hung
up as usual on Christmas eve and tur-
key dinner was served Christmas after
moor
Quite a number of visitors were pres
ent at the nursery yesterday afternoon
an enjoyed the hospitality Of the lady
managers.
