In the photo above, Scott Dirom and Karen Keeter display one of several posters around town that tell the facts about CF. A door-to-door doughnut sale will be included in the campaign and scheduled to take place Friday afternoon. CF Drive Pushes SI,OOO Goal A two-part fund raising campaign for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation will get underway this afternoon (Thursday) with local student and adult volunteers manning stations at grocery stores seeking contributions from the public. Their work will continue through Saturday. In addition, student volunteers will undertake a door-to-doordoughnutsaleon Friday with a dozen Krispy Kremes being sold for $1.50 and all proceeds to be donated to the CFF, reported Mrs. Norma Dirom, local CF publicity chairman. This year’s campaign, which will seek to fill a SI,OOO quota, will be publicized through local radio stations in an effort to drum up additional support for the fight against this lung damaging disease, and CF chairman Mrs. April Lane urges the local citizenry to respond generously. As it now stands more than 600,000 American children suffer with chronic lung-damaging diseases including cystic fibrosis, the most serious of them all. Cystic fibrosis is an hereditary affliction and is incurable. One person in 20 or 10-million Americans are carriers of the gene which can cause the disease. There is currently no accurate test for identifying carriers of the CF gene. The Cystic Fibrosis Foundation sponsors research, education, teaching and patient care at more than 100 CF Centers in the U.S. Duke University is one of those centers. Despite increased costs and rising inflation, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation spends less today for fund raising and administration than it did five years ago. Fund-raising and ad ministrative costs account for only 8.5 per cent each. This stewardship of public funds places the CF Foundation among the top five of all U.S. Health agencies for its fiscal responsibility. Games To Be Aired WCDJ will carry N.C.

King St, Edenton (Bit) 482-8284, 482-3382 Fund Raiser A uniquely beautiful custom using thousands of glowing Christmas lights will come to Edenton this holiday season. To support the Building Fund the United Methodist Women are raising funds by selling kits to make softly gleaming lights, called Luminarias. A centuries-old tradition in the Southwest, the lighting of Luminaria candles on Christmas Eve, came with the early Spanish settlers from Mexico. Today this lovely decorative idea is sweeping across America. Originally in Spain and Mexico the lights were tiny bonfires of wood. Modern Luminarias are made with special long-burning can dles and paper bags sup plied in kits by United Methodist Women. These paper lanterns are placed outdoors to line walks, driveways and streets along blocks or neighborhoods. The result is so spectacular that people always exclaim they’ve never seen anything so beautiful. One of the happiest things that comes out of decorating with these glowing lights is the spirit of working together in blocks and neighborhoods to create a beautiful sight at Christ mas. Members of the United Methodist Women will begin taking orders for these Christmas lights on Sep tember 19. They cost $1 for 5. For more information call Mrs. W.H. Hollowed, Mrs. C.B. Smith or Mrs. Nathan Owens.
