MAKE It POSSIBLE
. TO HELP EVERYONE.
Community Christmas Giving Avoids
Duplication of Gifts and Leav-
ing Out Of Worthy
Folks.
PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING
Fifty Doll Dressmakers Got Busy
Early and Dolls Are Al Ready
For Their Little
Mistresses.

One object Of the Community
Christmas plan is to avoid half
dozen baskets being sent to one family
and another family receiving none.
If all organizations, churches and
individuals would cooperate to the
extent of sending to Miss Laura
Alton the names Of families to which
they expect to send baskets those
names would be checked off the COM
munity list and thus avoid duplicates
and at the same time make it pos
sible for the community committee to
add another worthy family to it's list.
Miss Alton with the aid of the visit
ing nurses and others, has made a
pretty complete list of deserving
people who should be remembered
because otherwise they will have very
meager if any Christmas in their
homes. II you think about it YOU
can see how duplicates might have
occurred in the past and how they
might occur again unless this CO.
operation of all Christmas givers is
followed. There never have been
duplicate baskets sent out from the
community headquarters. The money
subscribed will be devoted to pllr-
chase Of food for the baskets. Miss
Elsie Buck is the. trearurer of the
fund.
The following subscriptions have
been made:
