Wounded Saved
By Blood Donors
Thousands of American fight
ing men will be decorated with
the purple heart award this
year as a result of the continu
ed support of the people of Sa
lem and nearby communities
at the blood donor center, where
otherwise would come reports
of "lost in action," according
to Milton L. Meyers, chairman
of the Red Cross blood donor
committee.
"Washington's birthday is a
day well suited to remind the
public of its life-saving obliga
tion to the men in service," he
stated. "Not only was the pur
ple heart originated by George
Washington in 1782, but the
purple heart award now given
the men wounded in action
carries the image of the first
president, and first general of
our armies.
"From Salem and nearby
communities alone, there must
be dozens of soldiers and sailors
now wearing the purple heart
who are alive today only be
cause someone gave to the Red
Cross a pint of blood from which
life-saving blood plasma was
processed.
"The 1944 goal set by the
national chapter is nearly 11,
000,000 pints of blood, approxi-
did not close in rural schools
until Friday night and the to
tal for Swegle was $2,922.60,
and Auburn, $1,760, or the pur
chase price of 27 parachutes.

Relief At Last
For Your Cough
Chronic bronchitis may develop if
your cough, chest cold, or acute bron
chitis is not treated and you cannot
afford to take a chance with any medi
cine less potent than Creomulsion
which goes right to the seat of the
trouble to help loosen and expel germ
laden phlegm and aid nature to
soothe and heal raw, tender, inflamed
bronchial mucous membranes.
Creomulsion blends beech wood
creosote byspecial process with other
time tested medicines for coughs.
It contains no narcotics. .
No matter how many medicine
vou have tried, tell your druggist to
sell you a bottle of Creomulsion with
the understanding you must like the
way it quickly allays the cough, per
mitting rest and sleep, or you are to
have your money back. (Adv.)
