light switches, paint, garden
and house plant supplies.
I Ivlc League members and
kindergarten mothers will sort
ru m m a g e articles tonight
(Thursday! and Friday even
ing and continue each after
noon and evening of next week
at the sale location.
Contributors of used goods
may bring them to the sorting
sessions, leave them at the
doorway of the Gilliam and

rummage at Del's Market and
lone people may leave it at the
post office.
Kindergarten mothers will
staff the rummage sale from 9

Money from the sale will go
toward paying the kindergart
en teacher's salary and buying
kindergarten supplies. Tuition
fees do not provide sufficient
revenue to keep the kindergart
en going and profits from twice
yearly rummage sales make up
the difference so that tuition
can be kept at the present low
rate.
