Donations from the community will still be needed to provide running expenses until that time, as well as for the extra expense of finishing the fire hall, as tax revenue will not take care of extras. The firemen, of course, will al- ways be making a donation of time. The district will bring enough financial relief tlmt it will he longer be necessary to provide for upkeep and current expenses by fund-raising drives, and this is generally regarded as an improve- ment.

Letter To Santa By Yernabelle Botts Dear Santa---You may think high-school aged children are a little too mature to still believe in the folklore about your annual visit on Christmas Eve. In a way we are metering in mind and body so that our childhood times are beginning to feel cherished in our memories. However, we are also thinking of the future-both ours, our children and theh.s to come. We are wondering, if not in a direct way, whether our children will be- lieve in Santa Claus. Will they be free, happy, carefree children like we have been, and in many ways still are, or will they be hungry, unhealthy, wanting of bread and milk more than wanting toys or sweets ? We are wondering, Santa, and hoping with all our hearts that God will protect us and keep all evil from rich or poor, be we yel- low, black or white. May God justify the unjust, free the burdened and enslaved, feed the hungry, heal the sick and No. 2 can 29= 2 qts 29 = 8-oz. ti. 29 e IIIQUIRT, LEMON SOUR, LIME RICKEY CAMMARANO MIXERS ......
