city called indianapolis, where
school girls and school boys made
hundreds of toys which with rugs,
quilts and mittens were sent to

of children who had supplied over
coats, cloaks and mittens to save
poor children in the city schools

to make Christmas cheer for
wounded heroes in army and navy

had contributed $1,000 to care for
ten youthful patients for one year
in a hospital school for crippled
children. At Newport, Tenn, |
had spied out a collection of toys
which busy youngsters were pre-
pairing to distribute among friends
in orphanages and hospitals.
Continuing my flight, | alighted
in q children's hospital at Louis

invalids joyous over bright colored
pictures pasted on strips OF cttl'd
board. They were gifts of school
boys and girls of LaGrange, Ky,
who had prepared them to replace
scrapbooks too heavy for tiny
hands to hold.
