Easter Seed Campaign Now Under Way!
Brances on both legs won't stop this youngster from enjoying a swing with a coun-
sellor at one of the Ontario Society for Crippled Children's camps. Each year hundreds
of boys and girls who wear braces, or use wheelchairs or artificial limbs, spend two or
three weeks at one of the five Easter Seal camps. At camp they compete — not against
each other, but against their handicap. It is the highlight each year in many young lives.
Easter Seal contributions make such special vacations possible.
