Scope and content
Lincoln High School students were Santa's helpers in 1922 when they reached out to make Christmas a merrier time for many local children. Students had donated used toys which were refurbished and made "new" by the sewing, art, and manual training classes on campus. The newspaper staff of the Lincoln High School News started the drive by traveling to various homes to pick up donations. They are believed to be pictured above along with the numerous dolls, balls, books and other toys they collected. G21.1-172 ( See Boland B7041 for additional article and photographs of the enterprising students)
