She is shown talking with Mrs. Henry Mapston, unit charman, following the program. Gifts to State Hospital Welcomed by Patients Applegate Valley "Even a comic book makes them happy. A room is brightened with Valentines pinned on the wall or a yarn doll tied to a crib." This was the way Mrs. Rob ert Minear, South Stage road, described the eagerness with which gift articles are re ceived at the Oregon State hospital, Salem and at Fair- view home, when she spoke to women of upper Applegate Home Extension unit meeting recently at the home of Mrs. Ray Lampkm.- 'Sometimes a shoe store will send 200 pairs of surplus high heel shoes, and the girls have a real party wearing them. They also enjoy the dis carded jewelry sent occasion ally by a jewelry store," Mrs. Minear related. Gifts Throughout Year Local unit women expressed desire to send gift items throughout the year instead of waiting until Christmas. Mrs. Minear said, that all kinds of articles are usable throughout the year. "Someone is always having birthday, and even maga zines and bean bags are much enjoyed," the speaker said, adding that even old Christ mas cards can bemused by the children for play purposes any time. Special celebrations are arranged for Fourth of July and Christmas. Discarded nylon hose is acceptable for occupational therapy in weav ing rugs, and clothing, with the exception of wools and shoes, is acceptable. Those wishing to send articles to the home may leave them any time with Mrs. Harry Watson at Bear Creek motel. Mrs. Minear is one of eight members from throughout the state on the committee of visit ors for the Fairview home for mentally retarded children. She was invited to speak at the unit meeting by Mrs. Lynn Valentine, who believed a follow-up talk on Christmas gift items would be of interest in view of the fact that the local unit and many others in the county send large quanti ties of gifts at Christmas time.

The packages were wrapped and sorted to suit the types of patients at a control depot maintained by the Salem Mental Health asso ciation.

Mrs. Minear briefly de scribed Fairview, saying there are 2,820 patients there; 118 from Jackson county. Two hundred of them work in shops and industries about the institution. The oldest patient is 85, the youngest, infants of six months. Many are there for their lifetime. Their schooling is formal, much as the public schools, and many patients are trained in some line of work. Boys learn to handle hammer and saw and do general work as farmer's helpers. Others work in poul try, dairy, and bakery depart ments at the school. Some are in orchard work. Girls are limited to household and laun dry duties. Supervised by School Mrs. Minear said that 25 per cent of the youngsters are trained to make their own liv ing, but are under supervision of the school even after enter ing community life. They still may not know how to manage money and other phases of normal living. There are some who marry and establish their own families. Parents visit their children once a month, the speaker related. She added that several state legislators had also visited the home this month. The Institution includes 630 acres of land. Mrs. Minear described the setting as rural, with many knolls and trees and an expanse of farm land The local extension women had as their afternoon pro gram a project on landscaping given by Mrs. Clifton Childers and Mrs. John Byrne, who ad vised on size of shrubs to use near a house and listed many varieties for general planting.
