Christ Child Society Names Deem
Der 8 for Tag Day.

The Christ Child Society will hold
a drive and tag day Monday, Decem-

warm clothing and toys to hundreds
of little waits.
In addition the society provides
complete infant outfits to destitute
mothers clothing and shoes to chill
dren, summer outings for children at
the Christ Child Farm, a temporary
home for children during their moth
ers' illness, and for convalescent
children; it provides for the physical
and moral well-being of children; it
provides cheer to saddened homes at
Christmas, and it provides industrial
classes and clubs for boys and girls
