With wide eyes, a whispering voice and pleasant manners, 3-year-old Cervante slowly paged through a catalog sitting on the table next to where his mother was signing up for The Salvation Army's Christmas Assistance program.

Perhaps one of the toys in those dazzling images will be provided by a benevolent community member this holiday season through the Angel Tree program.
