Los Angeles St. Sunkist Kids Explore Joy of Gift Giving By DORIS LEE The joy of giving could never be better expressed than it has at Sunkist School where the students from kindergarten on up, have turned out in large numbers to donate Christmas gifts for the children at Juvenile Hall. All last week gifts poured in to be placed under the little white gauze Christmas tree in the school office, each one wrapped with tender care in colorful paper and ribbon and designated for a boy or girl at the Hall. The gifts were delivered Friday. Sponsored by diligent members of the Parent-Teacher's Association, this welfare project was first conceived and carried out last year and was so successful it has become an annual project, according to Mrs. Frank Nish, publicity chairman for the PTA. "Every PTA does welfare work," she said, in explaining how it all came about. "Usually it's confined to needy families of children in the school. Help is given in the way of food and clothing throughout the year; at Christmas time toys are donated. But our school is fortunate not having needy families we've had to look elsewhere extend our help." Once decided upon, the effect was named Juvenile Hall Giving Time. Perry McGeer rector of the Juvenile Hall, contacted and the way was led for the project. The child responded with enthusiasm and two station wagon loads of were delivered in time for Christmas. This year the response even greater. The little tree loaded. "What amazes us," commended Mrs. Wilbur White, PTA president, "is the care taken in caring the gifts. They're all pretty, and many are quite orate." The gifts included such items as crayons, books, games, projects and toilet articles boys and girls ranging in from infants to 18 years.

Holiday Party Held at Hospital An Anniversary-Christmas Party for more than 200 employees and their guests was among the various activities at Martin Luther Hospital for the Christmas holiday season. The party, held in the cafeteria, included entertainment, gifts for all employes, an anniversary cake and ceremony, as well as a buffet and refreshments. The first Martin Luther patient Dear Ann Landers: What can a person say to a proud father who buttonholes you on the street in the office, or at a social fair and pulls out a billfold loaded with pictures of his kids? Usually you get a 15 minute monologue along with the pictures. I'm a father, too, and my kid happen to be very attractive, but I wouldn't dream of imposing on people this way. Yesterday a former neighbor grabbed me in an elevator a man pulled me off at his floor to show me pictures of his children. They were the homeliest collection of toothless monsters I have ever laid eyes on. Of course I had to say "Aren't they cute?" I felt like a liar and a jerk. Is there an out? — SANTA BARBARA Dear Santa: Sorry, but you can't say, "This is the homeless collection of toothless monsters we have ever laid eyes on." Since you insist on being factual, I suggest Samuel Goldwyn's famous line when he was asked to view a competitor's movie. He smiled and said "You've really got a picture there!" Dear Ann Landers: My舅 Eva raised me after my mother died in a TB sanitarium. She was so brutal and heartless. Gifts for Juvenile Hall Gift Giving Time.

But our school is fortunate in having needy families, so we've had to look elsewhere to extend our help." Once decided upon, the project was named Juvenile Hall Gift Giving Time. Perry McGee, director of the Juvenile Hall, was contacted and the way was paved for the project. The children responded with enthusiasm and station wagon loads of gifts are delivered in time for Christmas. This year the response was even greater. The little tree was added. "What amazes us," comments Mrs. Wilbur White, PTA president, "is the care taken in wrapping the gifts. They're all so petty, and many are quite elaborate." The gifts included such items: crayons, books, games, hobby projects and toilet articles for girls and girls ranging in age from infants to 18 years. Chairmen this year were Mrs. M. B. Yamaski and Mrs. Roy Bennett. Brownie Troop 10, led by Mrs. White and Mrs. Don Wedeking, adde considerably to the collection with 16 pairs of bedroom slippers which they made themselves. "Although we're not asking the children to donate clothes," says Mrs. Nish, "there is a great need for both clothing and shoes. Side donations from parents wouldn't be turned down." The gifts are delivered at the back door of the Hall, and they are distributed Christmas Day by the workers at the Hall. No outsiders other than relatives are allowed to see the children. No names are given out and no photographs taken. "This is to protect them," says Mrs. Nish. "Many children at Juvenile Hall are there through no fault of their own. Often it's the parents who are in trouble and there is no where else for the children to go." "But we don't mind not seeing them," she adds, "Just knowing we've brought them a little happiness is enough for us."

Do you insist on being factu-suggest Samuel Goldwyn's line when he was asked by a competitor's movie. He did and said "You've really picture there!" Arn Landers: My aunt raised me after my mother in a TB sanitarium. We was so brutal and heartless that I quit school and left home the very day I was legally able to do so. I batted around plenty but God must have been watching over me because I met a wonderful guy and married at 18. We've been married seven years, have a lovely home and three fine little ones. Aunt Eva comes over almost every day, rain or shine, and makes my life unbearable. She threw out all my pots and pans because she says aluminum causes cancer. She also threw out my electric heating pad and sun lamp because she read that too much heat could cause diabetes. I think she's mentally ill and have suggested therapy. She says she's perfect — it's the doctors who are crazy. After seven years I'm a nervous wreck. My physician says I must put an end to her visits. How can I? — NYACK Dear Nyack: If tomatoes made you deathly ill you'd eliminate them from your diet, wouldn't you? Well, when people make you sick — do the same thing. You needn't subject yourself to Aunt Eva's punishment. Tell her she can visit you by invitation only (doctor's orders) and invite her when (or IF) you feel up to it. Dear Ann Landers: We are worried about our 14-year-old son. He is 5' 10", weighs 170 pounds and his voice hasn't begun to change yet. Several of the fellows he goes with speak in a semi-manly voice, but our son hasn't shown the slightest sign of a change. It's embarrassing to him because when he answers the phone he is mistaken for his younger sister. My husband says his voice did not change until he was 16, but I don't think he remembers, actually. Shall I take the boy to a doctor? — WORRIED Dear Worried: Yes. He will probably tell you to relax — that the boy's maturation is a little slow. But you'll all feel better when you get a physician's reassurance.
