Donations of '-..
Toys for Project

Frank Gress post, Amvets,
have turned their clubroom in
to a mass replica of a Santa
Claus workshop, according to
post officers, which means they
have started their Christmas
program which consists of ga
thering and collecting all the
old toys they can muster in
the community, then mending
them and making them into
practically new toys.
They will then be given to
children who would otherwise
be unhappy when December Is
arrives.
Amvets are beginning the
program early, officers said,
because it is a tremendous pro-
ject.. and they are issuing a
call to all citizens of the COM
munity to donate reparable
broken toys to the project.
Friday, May 16, has been set
as a day for pickup of toys,
and those having toys to con-
tribute to the project are asked
to place them on the curb that
day before 8 pm, when a
house-to-house campaign will
he conducted by the Amvets for
collection of the toys.
Those having toys may also
call No. 319, and arrangements
for collection will be made, Am
vets officers said.
