As early as November, the JC Wives, many of whom have rather large families of little ones, began sewing a 15-change wardrobe for a doll to be given away at Christmas. When the doll was completed, they sold and also bought tickets on it, many making a house to house canvass. With the money from the doll project, they purchased outing flannel, approximately 300 yards, together with thread and some trimming, and cut and sewed 86 nightgowns for the patients at Sunset Manor. The 86 gowns were all gift-wrapped gift-wrapped and taken to the patients pa-tients along with cookies and punch which the girls had made. They also arranged a program and took Santa Claus along to cheer the elderly pa-. pa-. tients. This would seem quite enough, but in addition, the club sent a holiday greeting ; card to every patient. Appearing on the program of dance and music were: Trina : and Pataricia Carlson, LeAnn . Gustavson, Debra Bishop, Su-; Su-; san Biesinger, Jean Marie Bleggi, Kathleen Collett, De- Pamela Forshee, daughter of Sir. and Mrs. Ed Forslice, had to wait until after she got over the mumps to have her picture taken with the JC Wives doll she won for Christmas. The doll project raised funds to buy cloth to make gowns for the pa tients at Sunset Manor. Mrs. Bud Herbert, left, was chairman; Sirs. Glenn Robinson, center, co-chr.irman of the project. The dolls wardrobe contained 25 complete changes chan-ges all made by the JC wives club. |
