Fortunate People In Area With the spirit of Christmas in the air thousands of generous citirens have been burrowing into pockets and purses for holiday giving not only for family ind friends but the noblest tradition of the season to less fortunate neigh bars in the communities Unfortunatel says The Canadian Welfare Coun this outpouring of mo ney may humiliate or harm the families who receive it For this reason the oldfashioned Christmas basket once deposited each Christmas morning on the doorste of poor families by well lnten oned neighbors is now almost obsolete Its goodrcontents it is realized were often oiled forthe fanrily it was supposed to eer bmause the family felt singled out as an object of charity Today many communities have spe clal organization which prevents dupliy cation of Christmas giving and is used by government and voluntary social ser ince agencies church civic and other groups interested in making special Christmas donations and by individuals In Barrie these groups of givers are coordinated by the Salvation Army Social welfare agencies are in aposb gt tion to understand the effeds of outside giving good or otherwise through their close contact with families in all income brackets throughout the year Outof their experience members of the Cana dian Welfare Council offer some guides to wiée Christmas giving as follows When you give consider the effect of your gift on the recipient as well as your own pleasure in giving Will your gift be one which creates embarrass ment or sense of being set apart from other people in the community This kind of gift is often typified in the Christmas party for underprivileged children which conveys to unlucky boys or girls present that in the eyes of the community their families are looked on as failures When you va to person try to visualize the not on other family members as well To give to one favored child in family and overlook the others could make your source of bitter ness rather than oy In the same way when children are presented with gifts which their own parents are unable to provide tha effect may he to make par ents feel inadequate and weaken family solidarity The better way isto give through an agency which will transmit gifts or money to parean so that they can fill their natural role as the family providers Make your gift provide the greatest and most lasting good Your contribu tion toward big dinner at childrens institution may help make Christmas merry but contribution to pay for bra ces for crippled child might be of more permanent and satisfying value Give in ample time for your gift to be well used toy manufacturer sent his truck around to social agency door the day before Christmas with load of unsold toys and asked that the toys be distributed to homes in the community in time for home celebrations on Christ mas Day more practical request still in keeping with the season would have been to ask that the toys be distributed for use in day nurseries in the communv ity through the rest of the year as the need for them arose Give through the best central com munity source IIowever laudable aim individual giving often leads to du plicationand confusion Christians bur eaus eliminate overlappldg and waste in Christmas giving Through such means tangible gifts can bethanneled to the homes and institutions in the community where they are most needed and indiv iduals uncertain as to how many gifts can be used most beneficially are put ln touch with agencies and institutions for which the funds will perpetuate the Christmas spirit in year round commun

on the side of prices rather than wages After all the new body while It will be independent of government will have tolive with government and govern obsessed with political impor lance of labor
