SIntI'a Toy shop as gifts of all kinds arrived from Junior Red Cross Branches in the schools all over the Island to be distributed to over 100 crippled and handi- capped children throughout the

province who are beinl WING through the Red Cross. Many of these gifts. such as

stuffed animals of every kind and it iety of fret-saw toys were mtg by the Juniors themselves and would bring joy to any child. other gifts included all kinds of games. balls. books. crayons. paints and colouring books and made up interesting aekages for the different aged ch ldren. This is an annual event for the P. E. I. Junior Red Cross members and one that makes all who contribute towards .it happy in the know- ledge that they are bringing pleas- ure to other children less fortun- ate than themselves and in this way carrying out their motto. "I serve." The children who are pat- ients at the Ssnatorium were also among those remembered at Christmas.

The veterans in hoa- pitai. who are always the concern -if the Red Cross and who are vis- ited regularly all through the year. also had special Christmas pack- avzcs made up for them.
