FILL THIS COMMUNITY CIIKST THIS morning a group of public .spirited and cncrgtic citizens under the direction of Noble Ooellel began the campaign to fill the Itoseburg Community Chest for lD.'iO. 'The amount required is $(0U0. That is a small quota for a city of the size of Roseburg and if each of us gives to the 'Chest as much as we should, a much larger amount will be raised. It is squarely up to everyone to do his or her part !in filling the Roseburg Community Chest. Some have the impression that the money raised for the Community chest is for charity. That is not strictly the case, The Community Chest idea was adopted as a means !to prevent the constant recurrence of drives for funds on the part of deserving organizations. Such organizations charitable or otherwise must have money with which to carry on their work and before the advent of the Com munity Chest idea, drives for funds were in progress al Jnost continuously, or so it seemed. Several years ago the problem of too many drives was solved by the establish ment of the Community Chest. Representatives of each of the public service and charily organizations gathered to '. gether around a table and determined that if one huge drive ! were pirt on it would be more satisfactory and no doubt more successful. That this method is more successful is proven by the fact that the institution of the Community ' Chest still exists and this method of combining aii drives ; for funds into one great drive has been found to bo highly j satisfactory. There is this fact about the community chest ' drive that is now in pi ogress, if it fails to rai.se the quota : set, if wo do not all do our parts to support these organi ; zations that depend upon the Community Chest for funds, i we will acknowledge the failure of the chest plan and will I of necessity return to the days of numerous drives. Jt is a ! challenge to all of us and we must do our share. ; The Community Chest is well and carefully adminis : tered. Organizations which participate in the receipts from ' tho chest drive are worthy and are each of .them doing a I work that is worth to our community many times what il ': costs us in money. Can we measure in terms of cash, for in- ; stance, tho value of the Roy Scout work? Can we evaluate ' the Roseburg Municipal Hand, perhaps the best small city band in the state, in terms of money? These and the other chest beneficiaries are worth more to each of us than money, i No proof of this statement is necessary at all. The insti tutions supported by the chest are worthy and valuable, their years of successful service has demonstrated that. Let's all get behind this chest drive and show appreciation of the efforts of those public spirited folks who are giving their time to putting it over.
