"Everyone received a gift. Many of
them were given by students from
their own parties. The children were
given fragile toys before Christmas,
which would not last long, and then
on Christmas they received a nice toy
each, one which would last them
through the year. These had to be
strong enough not to break, when they
fell off their beds. Santa Clause
brought their gifts to them, already
in their stockings, and hung them on
their beds. He entertained them
meanwhile with stories.
'Even the adults received gifts.
The women received bed-jackets, and.
the men such' things as shaving lo-
tions. Every adult received a box of
candy, cookies, 'candied orange peel,.
and the like, which was made by the
wom a of the churches. Santa Claus
visited them, also, and they had a
great deal of fun joshing with him.
For many of them, it was the first
real Christmas they had had in years,
as they had given their Christmases
to their children. Six Santa Clauses
came in one room at once, and the
children were unable to understand
how that could be. They almost look-
ed cross-eyed trying to see them.
"Many permanent and expensive'
gifts were made to the wards, such as
a piano, and a victrola, which can be
used all year and for many years.
"Credit is due to every organiza-
tion and department on campus. Each
contributed essential details, without
which the effort to give all the pa-
tients in the hospitals a pleasant
Christmas could not be a success,"
Miss Ketcham concluded.
