duled to onen the firF of Mah
has been placed at $2100. This
startling bit of information was
imparted to Hetpnr Lions club
Monday noon by Miss Carvl Hol

the American Red Cross society,
who was in town for the purpose
of conferring with leaders relative

expansion of the national budget,

emergency. Of the amount to be
raised here, $400 will remain in
the county to meet local emer
gencies. Miss Hollingsworth was intro

ing with several numbers on his
accordion.

GEORGE COOK, Prop.
The Editor Proved the Value of
RJ
The editor turned out the midnight light
over his littered desk and wended his weary
way homward. He took a short cut through
an alley to his back yard and noticed a prom
inent business man slipping out of the back
door of the residence of a lady whose husband
happened to be out of town that week. In the
next issue of his paper the editor told of the
occurrence without mentioning names, and
suggested that inasmuch as the man was not
already a subscriber it was hoped that he
would send in his subscription to the paper
so as to keep posted on local happenings.
The next day the editor received 52 new sub
scriptions from business men of the town.
