“Today's children at Christmas-time take a cast-off toy to the Toy Service held in many churches, and it is a pretty sight to watch those tiny mites clutching their toys and parting from them. However, it has been said that they should take one which they really love, otherwise it is no sacrifice. What busy-bodies some of these grown-ups are! Do they send off their best clothes to the local jumble sale?”
