THE DAILY COLLEGIAN
We, The Women—
Thoughts Of Others
Fitting At Christmas
It isn't too early to begin think
ing about how we may help oth
ers less fortunate than we at
Christmas.‘ One of the best ways
Penn State coeds can do this is to
contribute to WSGA's annual
Christmas drive which begins
Monday.
When you budget for gifts, why
not include 25 cents for the fund?
That's what WSGA has set as a
goal from each woman student
and that small amount will go a
long way toward making someone
happier at Christmas.
Starting Monday and continu
ing until December 16, members
of the House of Representatives,
Junior Service Board, and Fresh
man Council will contact_all coeds
for the drive.
Money collected will be distrib . -
uted equally among Mifflin Coun
ty Children's Aid Society, Ameri
can Women's Hospitals, and Mrs.
Hetzel's Ethergency Fund. By con
tributing to the drive, you help
all three of these representative
groups.
Remember not so long ago when
a doll and story-book or a little
extra spending money meant so
much to you? And how much
you enjoyed candy and nuts? Your
contributions will mean even
more to the children benefiting
from the Mifflin County Aid So
ciety who have only life's barest
necessities.
American Women's Hospitals
help relieve suffering among ci
vilians in war-torn areas. and at
home assist in disease prevention
and child health. Here on our
own campus, Mrs. Hetzel's Emer
gency Fund aids our classmates
who have sudden obligations to
meet.
Individually, our parts in aid
ing these needy ones is small, but
collectively, we can do much to
help others have merrier Christ
mases.
So, when a WSGA 'representa
tive approaches you, don't be
grudge deserving people a little
of your holiday fun. Let's sur
pass last year's $196.25 record!
