Rich- sidered this year, owing to the fact that Ihere are so many demands upon the peojile, but upon investigating, it has been found that our poor families are more in n-eed than ever before. The high cost of rood makes it impos- sible for them to buy fuel and neces- sary clothing. The townspeople have for -the past four years, responded so generously to this call there is no doubt that they will be ready this year to co-operate with the C. A. R. in pro- viding warm, clothing for the children arid giving them a little Chrlstmats joy.
