CAMPAIGN LAGGING I
The seal-sales drive for the Tu-
berculosis League is progressing
satisfactorily, but the receipts are
lagging behind those of last year,
reported Mrs. Vern Davidson, exe-
cutive secretary for the Mason
County chapter.
Mrs. Davidson commended the
junior and senior high school stu-
dents for the contributions during
the sale of Bangle pins. "The stu-
dents gave quite a bit."
"This one campaign for funds
is the only source of income for
the war against tuberculosis," said
Mrs. Davidson. "We need the
money to extend the case finding
and education program another
year."
The first 20 days of the drive
this year resulted in $2,112.85,
compared to *the first 20 days of
the campaign in 1948- -$2,476.
:I am the way, the truth, and
the life: no man cometh unto the
Father, but by me. ---Christ Jesus
An era in human history is the
life of Jesus, and its immense in-
fluence for good leaves all the
perversion and supersitition that
has accrued almost harmless.

lowed to be overlooked in the first
annual Christmas fund drive, so
we are calling it to his attention.
Mrs Isaac Prichard, so hlsy
with imr multiferous Christmas
chores, has prolmbly overlooked
the purpose of this campaign
and we are confident tlmt she
wonld not knowingly let such
an opportunity lmSS without do-
ing Iwr good deed.
We have as yet had no word
I from the Junior Chamber of
Commerce or the Active club, fa-
mous throughout years past for
their good deeds, and it would not
be amiss for Super Ru(tie Oltman
to gel, out his little note book and
pass around the hat; among his
associates.
Another true manifestation of
the Christmas spirit i evidenc-
ed by the primary Cllildren of
the Methodist Sunday school
with their presentation of three
boxes of food for the 40 and 8-
Journal Christmas Fund distri-
bution. The gift Is gratefully rc-
ceived and thanks ar(, extenedcd
to these kindly chihlren on be-
half nf the needy folks who
sllall he benefitted.
,
Heading this cohmm is a long
list of cash donations which makes
)oa,sible the purchase of a lot of
things such as clothing, sustaining

huge suecess. However, the kind-
neas of Shelton and Mason county
people has not only been manifest-
ed by the fullness of their cash
contributions. Included in the gift
boxes that will be distributed by
40 and 8 Santa Claus helpers on
Saturday will be toys which have
been rebuilt and redecorated by
Shelton firemen and policemen,
presents for the youngsters from
the Hoodsport Commercial chlb,
food and presents from Girl Scout
Troop No. 1, over 400 packages of
food from the Paramotmt theatre
matinees and a lot of other do-
nations that have been received
by the committee.
Melmbers of the Shelton KI-
wanis club, always in the thick
of good deeds, abandoned their
usual practice of giving gifts to
each ofher at their Christmas
party on Tuesday. Instead each
member brought along gift of
food and placed it with ut!lers
under the Christmas tree at
Memorial hall. The whole collec-
tion has been turned owr to the
40 and 8 committee and will be
aied to help swell Santn's pack
/for needy people of the corn'
mimity. *
:.. It can well be fe]t at this junc-
ture of the game that the first
annual community Christmas cam-
paign Will be a full success and
that many people will receive a
bit; of cheer that would otherwise
be. lacking. :It is the purpose of
this department to acknowledge
with thanks the privilege that has
been given to The Journal in shar,
ing the effort and in turn we
would like to direct a big word of
,thanks to all who have had a part.
