Christmas Time at Dixon Several times in the past, drives for gifts and clothing for the children and adults of Dixon have been made. This year a group of private individuals are conducting a new drive. They hope that each member of the cottage will have a gift of their own. Many things that don't mean much to us will make these children happy. As it is Christmas time, new things are preferred. Things that you would give to your own child. One girl was so happy last Christmas time because she had received a Christmas card and this was her treasured possession. Can't you help to make her Christmas happier »this year with a real gift? It could be a new pair of bright mittens or a simple game or puzzle. Feminine things like a pretty hanky or a bar of soap or some cologne to delight the girlish heart. Pretty necklaces and bracelets or a sturdy comb or brush to have for her very own, these are the things that spell Christmas to a girl who is delighted with a Christmas card. The cottage that has been adopted this year shelters women and girls who would be so happy to receive just one gift of their very own. Won't you help? Everything must be picked up by Dec. so that each article can be wrapped and delivery made in time for the Lord's birthday. If you want to help, please call Jim and Mary Daurio at 385-3160, or Drumls at 385-3796, L^s and Nedra Ekhart at 385-1308 or Petie Oakford at 385-5334.
