Now lest we exhibit any tendency to rest on our .laurels, the story isn't actu- ally quite complete. Mr.. . Jeffrey notes that the hospit- al still desperately needs a fitted carpet for the play- room, to help create a warmer atmosphere, and to prevent serious falls, With such a wonderful start with the toys, perhaps some community organization would like to carry the project one step further, and aim for a lovely, brightly coloured, non allergenic playroom carpet. We must be on the right track; every youngster who has seen the pile of booty for the playroom so far,. can't wait to get sick:. ---yesterday, at the very latest!
