Photograph of a little four year old patient at the Children's Hospital, in Vancouver, is shown above "dressing up" in some of this Christmas decorations that went up last week in the wards of the hospital. Many plans go into the preparation of the Christmas festivities at Children's Hospital and each of these must be elastic enough to include and unexpected small face who suddenly appears at a party or joins the festive board. So it never can be definitely said "there will be forty boys and twenty girls" but rather "the admission department says three more and maybe six will be in before Santa leaves- better have their presents on hand plus a few extra for goodluck.
