SANTA WANTS
TOYS FOR THESE

Santa Claus has informed the
Children's Bureau. that in looking
over his stock OF toys and other
Christmas gifts for the tots, he finds
he still needs some more to fiji his
bag so that he may visit every little
child in Wilmington, particularly
the youngsters who do not have
father or mother to provide for
them.
There is ten-year-old Dorothy.
who has no toys. Until recently she
had the care and responsibility Of
three younger children OF the fam
| lily and did not have much time to
play. But now all OF these lliddies
are being cared for. But Dorothy
would love to have a new doll for
Christmas just like the kind her
mother used to dress for her. and
probably her list OF wants include
such things as candy. books drums.
balls, and warm clothing. not only
for herself, but her sister and broth
ers.
I Little John Is four years old. He
talks continually Of Santa's visit
last year and of all he left and is
looking forward TO Christmas morn
ing. His father has not worked for
many months and II is feared that
John may be disappointed, as he
wants just what all other little boys
would like, as trains. and cars, auto
books and soldier toys. But there
are surely many kind hearted folks
in Wilmington who will see that
John finds all that could wish.
The Children's Bureau has many
children to provide for this Christ
mas, and asks for any toys or cloth
ing suitable for botr poys and girls
from three TO fifteen years OF age,
Any persons. who would like 70
make donations may send or brinr
