Close to 400 Huron County

for holiday help
To the editor:
At the September meeting of
the board of directors of the
Children's Aid Society of Huron
County, plans were laid for
providing some Christmas help
for families having a difficult
time this year.
Early in October our visitor
will call on these families to talk
over whatever is needed. Then
our volunteers will begin at once
to buy and select gifts, wrap
them and pack boxes for each
family. There are already over
sixty families on our list for this
year, and the number can
foreseeably double . by
December. It is imperative to
begin at once.
Our volunteers hope to finish
packing the boxes in November
so that our visitor can begin
delivering them early in
December. Our hope is to finish
by December 15.
It was suggested that people
wishing to share in this
wonderful work would like to
make it a Thanksgiving project.
In this way contributions would
come to the Children's Aid
Society office in October and
early November so that the
sorting, selecting and wrapping
can be easily accomplished in
good time.
What to send us? Money is
always acceptable because then
we can use it to buy •what is
Suitable for each particular child.
Woollen and leather mitts are
'always useful; diapers; gifts for
children, especially those over
12 years of age, and especially
boys; games for a family to
enjoy; baby blankets; pyjamas
for older children and so on.
Remember too, that these gifts
do not need to be Christmas
wrapped.
The Children's Aid Society is
most appreciative of the many
generous gifts contributed
during this and former years by
the people of Huron County. it
is what we share that spreads
happiness not only to the homes
where it is received but also in
Our own.
We wish you all much joy.
Miss Clare McGowan,
Local Director,
Children's Aid Society
of Huron County.

to become a resident at
Tweedsmuir Hall. The happy

Mr. Honsinger and he still takes
part in many of the activities
