Recently the committee pur Chased new equipment and items that are more appropriate for patients. The toys and games may be checked out at the local library just like books on a loan card. All that Is asked of the parent is that they take reasonably good care and return them in as good a condition as possible so that another child may enjoy them. Before the parents have had to go to the library to get the games, but at present the B.P. W. club is attempting to obtain funds to build a cabinet that can be taken to the clinic. The carpenters union of Brigham City made bed trays for the project last year, and this year they have consented to build the cabinet. It is our hope that the parents in the county who have rheumatic fever patients,-whetheor not, entirely will call on the library for these toys and games, the committee said. They have been purchased for their benefit and they are most welcome to use them.
