Life in such hospitals can be drab and meaningless to those living in half-shadows of reality, unless those of us blessed with good health, physical and mental, remember our friends and associates of the past. Nearly a hundred former county residents are ill in such institutions, and many never see a face of a friend or relatives, receive a friendly card, or present. These forgotten patients can be remembered by you, however, if you wish to do so. Why not wrap up a shirt, or a tee-shirt, washable slippers or scuffs, a new pipe, tobacco, hair cream, or shaving lotion for a man or a blouse, skirt, warm nightgown, shawl, scarf, cosmetics, powder, face cream, etc., tor a women, and donate it as a Christmas present for the mentally ill? You can take such a present to the county extension office, Farm Bureau office, or to the Gas company in Decatur. These are the collection depots. ' This drive ends next Monday. This isn’t much time, is it? Get busy today, and remember that Christmas to many will mean more than a dinner, and friends, and too much candy to some—it will mean that they were remembered by a world they have almost forgotten.
