With ail this care -and consideration, one would think that there was not much choice left. Weii, maybe. But Riononta chiidren were a lot happier and their Christmas was even More joyful. No child was ever hurt because of' a bad toy. And the toys children were receiving for Christmas had a special magic due to the love and care of the parents who bought them. They were enchanted toys. They ail had the magic of Safety builtito them., They weresimple toys, not very complicated, and every- one understood that one safe toy was better than ten dangerous ones. The children soon learned to discover the magic in them. A hobby horse, for example, wouid last for years and had marveilous properties. lb becaîne a friend, a rocket, a car, a motorcycle, an airpiane, a snowmobiie or anything the chiid wished. It was simple and uncomplicat- ed. lt aliowed the child to use the infinite magic of his own imagination. When Santa 'Claus heard about Adanac he was very pleased to see that safety minded parents has such consîderation for their child- ren. -Now why couldn't Ont- ario be like that?" he asked the Ontario Safety League. Why not, indeed! ... and best wishes fOr a New Year of happiness i in a world ofpeace.
