A, LITTLE MISSIONARY.

Ruth Davidson Of Wheaton and her
Sunbeam branch have proved little
missionaries, for the report of their
work in The Journ al has inspired
others and Sunshine has received sew:
eral letters from children asking for
the name of some poor child to whom
they may write letters and send little
gifts! to make them happier.
Lila Homsted Of Kensington, Mimi,
who is president Of circle of little
children, called the Golden Rod, has
written for the name Of some child
(these girls are willing to aid boy)
with whom they may share their Christ
mas. From Kensington also comes an
other letter from Harriet Olson, lit
tie girl IL years old who wishes the
address Of some poor little girl whom
she may make happy this Christmas
Harriet is evidently bright little girl
for she is in the seventh grade : at
school and. she writes an interesting let
ter.
Perhaps there are some little girls
who are sick and whom Sunshine does
not know who would be glad to hear
from these: other little girls who wish
to scatter the Hgood cheer. -

). The society hopes now to have the
tree in. Riverside chapel as last year.
and 1t also has expectations of the tree
being donated by friends, so lessening
the expense and leaving that much
more with which to purchase the Gifts.
Sunshine's Christmas celebration will
be held some time between Christmas
and New. Years, the date has not vet
been decided. 80. ~ -
Every year an entertainment has
been furnished for the children before
Santa Claus arrived to distribute the
gifts. This year, however, the children
who chiefly come from the Peabody
school wish to entertain the society. 40

pear on the program are feeling very
Important and mean to do their very
best; !,
The plan now is to give the older
girls hair ribbons, the suggestion COM
ing from one of the teachers. Sunshine
will welcome ribbons Of every color.
For the more substantial gifts Sunshine
hopes to give caps and mittens. The
boys will have knives, sleds and per-
haps skates for the older boys. Candy,
popcorn, nuts and oranges will complete
the array Of gifts. Several OF the moth
ers, too. will be remembered and some
thing given them to make the day
Il anyone has any contributions for
the Christmas tree, notify Sunshine
headquarters in the courthouse and
they will be sent for.

THANKS TO THE suNBEAMs,

The state officers appreciate greatly
the contributions from the little mem
bers of the Sunbeam branch who con-
tributed the dolls for the bazaar. The
dolls varied in size and were all charm
lngly dressed by the little Sunshiners
who were eager to help swell the fund
to make less fortunate children happy.
The dolls alone brought $685. into
the fund and the little aprons added
maternity to the good work.

their Sunshine work so quietly that
even the state officers did not fully
realize all they had accomplished.

the bags and they are expected at the

young women's club, chorus choir,
