CMIHA. expects to collect about. 20.000 individual gifts distribut- ing them to 4.500 patients. ‘ Perhaps the most significant: recent development is the inau- guration of “shoppers fa t r s" which was started in Edmonton; These fairs provide an oppor-I tunity for the patients to select I and ‘purchase? with token mon-. ey. Christmas gifts for others.‘ Such a project has great value; as it gives the patient a dignity and a marked degree of inde-, pendence. Instead of just beingl happy recipients of gifts. pa- tients now take positive action and general joy of Christmas giving. These fairs are spreading to other areas and contribute much to the accep- tance of the patient as a contin- uing member of the community. his program involves many hundreds of volunteer workers,, all across the country for sever— f at weeks between now a n dl Christmas time. i In accepting the position, Mrs. Pearson sent the following‘ message: ‘ Christmas for most Canadians is a warm and joyful family ex-. perience. Its joys and meanings. are many. but the greatest of! these is the sense of b e l onging '
