The packages were addressed to the children of inmates atthe Joliet-Stateville branch of the Illinois State Penitentiary and at the Illinois State Reformatory for Women at Dwight who went "shopping" in at special Salvation Army toy shop Oct. 23- 25. . • The Salvation Army acts as a nameless Santa Claus in the toy lift project. Fifty-one sample gifts, each with a key number, were displayed in the toy shop in the prisons. The inmates selected a gift for each of their children and wrote personal name tags to attach to each gift. The children never know the gift really comes from The Sal- , vation Army. There is no indication that the gift comes from anyone but the father or the mother. In the period between the "shopping" days and the mailing date, the Salvation Army bought the gifts wholesale and arranged for gift wrapping on a large. scale. On Dec. 4 and 5, approximately 80 women volunteers from the Telephone Pioneers of America and the Salvation Army Women's auxiliary wrappedthe 'packages in bright paper and ribbons. Two of the most popular gifts selected fay the inmates were a fashion model's case--ahatbox with beauty accessories for girls, and a large steel pickup truck for bbys. A tool chest,; woodmirning set, camping kit, dolls, vanity and dresser sets, roller skates, oil painting sets, blocks and cooking and tea sets were other popular choices. This is the third year the Army has sponsored the toy lift in Stateville and Joliet prisons. About 485 men participated. At the reformatory at Dwight where the project was held for the eleventh year, sixty women participated. Prison officials have found the project a great factor in bolstering the morale of the inmates and their families. As one inmate explained, "A gift from Dad, when he can't be home for Christmas, means a lot to my kids. I really appreciate the Salvation Army having this toy lift.
