Shrine President Urges Klamath Public To Help In Crippled Child Care By GLEN B. INMAN, President Klamath FalU Shilna Club The Shrine club of Klamath county Is sponsoring its annual dance to raise funds for the Shrine Hospital for Crippled Children at Portland. The public Is asked to cooper ate in this drive by direct con tribution or by buying tickets to the Shrine dance to be held in the Klamath Falls armory June 1, 1946. Today it is philanthropy (a large word, but meaning simply "love of mankind"). What a warm and kindly feeling one receives after contributing to such a worthy cause as helping crippled children to receive the best of medical care that they may grow strong and well, and take their rightful place in so ciety! Down through the years come kindly figures who have aevot cd their lives and money, mart ing milestones in the progress of the age-old worK or neiping others and working toward the ideal of a world of healthy and happy children, that they may live more hopefully and joy ously. Yes, and face life more courageously ana neipiuny. The meaning of "an equal chance in life" becomes a glori ous reality to the underpriv ileged boy or girl when leaving a Shrine hospital. No longer do the children have a restricted outlook on life. Theirs is a new heritage of opportunity. Do your "golden deed" today by sending your contribution to Sanford Selby, 850 Eldorado, Klamath Falls.
