CHRISTMAS BASKETS!

This year when prosperity!
seems to be with all of us, jobs
plentiful—too plentiful—it is dif
ficult for us to understand why
there should be any needy fami
lies. It is most gratifying to
note that these families have de
creased remarkably in number
since last year. However, there
are a lew families in the county
who are hadicapped by age and
various infirmities who cannot
miake their own way. This year
l especially our hearts should be
attuned to the needs and suffer
ing of our fellow man, and cause
us to be more anxious to share
with those less fortunate than
I ourselves.
I Due to gas rationing a house
|to-house canvass will not be made
as in previous years. Toys,food,
and clothing will be collected at
the school house, and broken
toys will be repaired and recon
ditioned by L. C. Walker and his
Vocational classes.
Any contributions of clothing,
food, canned goods, toys or mon
ey will be gratefully received.
Those who have anything to of
fer please call Mrs. W. E. Beck
ham, telephone 26, and someone
will call and get it to be packag
ed for distribution.
