Christmas House Opens, Plea
For Help Is Made To Many
By • Cal Carpenter
For the fourth year, the
Christmas House is open in
Brevard. Already many
church, civic and social or
ganizations are hard at. work
so that Transylvania’s needy
families may have a merrier
Christmas.
You are invited to join them.
Everyone, individually or in
groups, is earnestly asked to
help so this year may be a
happy Christmas for. the many
families who might otherwise
have little to be happy about on
the happiest day of the Chris
tian calendar.
Chairman for this year's
Christinas House is Dr. Glenn
Matheny. Volunteers for
work at the House are invited
to contact him, call the Jay
sees or visit the Christmas
House in the building on East
Main Street next door to
Austin's Art Shop—where
the Family Fun Center was
located. Committee chairmen
and organization leaders who
wish to volunteer their group
help are invited to contact
any Jaycee.
Spirit Of The Season
"Show the true spirit of the
season and search your closets
and attics for outgrown
Clothes—anything usable.” say
the Jaycees, who are coordi
nating the Christmas House.
"And give as generously as you
can—let's combine our many
and separate efforts to make
this a joyous Christmas for the
less fortunate in Transylvania
County.”
"The Christmas House is
working to insure that many
of the less fortunate families
in our community have a
more comfortable and happy
holiday. Many families on
welfare do not have a suffi
ciency of warm clothing for
winter, special food for a
Christmas dinner, nor gifts to
go under the Christmas tree
for the young ones,” say the
sponsoring civic groups.
‘‘Most of us have had much
good fortune to be thankful for
throughout the year. “We've
been fortunate to be in good
health, we’ve had enough of the
material things. Most of us will
be together with our families
this Christmas. These are things
for which we should be most
thankful. We should be thank
ful enough to share what we
have with those less fortunate,"
say the sponsoring church
groups.
Handled Through Welfare
Nominations for families
to participate will be handled
through the Transylvania
County Social Services De
partment, as in the three
years before. This way a uni
form distribution will be as
sured.
Many items are needed at the
Christmas House. Toys clothing,
household utensils, bedding and
non-perishable food. Money is,
of course, also needed. Items
may be purchased and donated
to the Christmas House; used
items in good condition are
equally welcome.
Civic and church women
are needed t.o do sewing on
garments that have been pur
chased and are already cut
out and ready to sew.
Transylvania school children
are bringing canned fruits;
other canned foods will be wel
come.
Meaningful Christinas
This year, 175 families of
approximately 800 people—
many of them children—will
be served.
All items will be given to
needy families at no cost.
Everything donated will go
to the needy families.
Everyone is asked to make
their own Christmas this year
more meaningful by helping
others.
After all, that's what
Christmas is about.

tions, think of VARNER’S. adv.
