Elks Abandon Toy Drive For Cash Aid to Needy
The Grafton B B C Elks lodge will not hold its annual Christmas toy drive this year. Instead, cash donations will be given to the Girl's Charity Club the Salvation Army and the community aid in Flemington to aid distressed families. A survey by a lodge committee found food and clothing for children and adults more beneficial than toys. The Elks will still host their Christmas dance with the Florida Night Hawks at the lodge ballroom on Christmas night.
