The Nyssa Senior Citizens
are opening their rummage sale
in the Junior Chamber of Com
merce building Friday at 10
a.m. and will continue doing so
every Friday and Saturday
throughout the summer. Our
organization is a member of
the National Senior Citizens
and as such is a participant in
all their programs to better the
living conditions for the elderly.
This should be of interest to
our middleaged who stand to
benefit by it through our con
centrated effoits. Nor have we
neglected to serve the needs of
the worthy folks when found
here
and we shall continue
doing so.
The only means we employ
to reimburse our treasury is
through our rummage sales. W e
do solicit any articles we can
use in our sales. A phone call
to 372-3106 or 372-2946 will
bring a pickup truck to your
door.
