Much fun was had at the e? pense of several L'lons who con tributed to the Clubs treasury by being fined for not wearing their Lions Button, or not having their wives present, or by failing to address a fellow Lion by his first name.

"Ralph Edwards" Hedden as sisted by Dick. Eagles conducted a Truth or Consequences program in which seven Lions paid the penalty for not being able to tell the truth.

Griffin of Gold Mine Township called his com mittee together last week and made a house to house canvas in his township, selling more than enough bonds to meet the quota for that township. Chairman Griffin announces that before the campaign is over he expects every home In Gold Mine township to have bought at least one bond. This leaves Dunn No. 2 as the township furtherest behind in Its sales. However, Chairman Perry is putting on a special effort this week, and U Is expected that Dunn No. 2 will be over the top before the time has expired. San dy Creek and Youngsville are al most over the top and wilj be long before the 15th. It now appears that every town ship in Franklin County will Sell its quota but even this may not meet the quota of "E" bonds set for Franklin County, which is $190,000.00. The county as a whole will meet the over-all quo ta of $260,000.00, but the -biggest portion of this is made up of sales to corporations rather than indi viduals. The standing of townships for this week is as follows: Township Quota Sold Dunn No. 1 $13,000 $9,700 Dunn No. 2 14,000 1,600 youngsville 21,000 17,800 Harris. 21,000 7,525 Franklinton 56,000 87,921 HayesVille 16,000 23,325 Sandy Creek 17,000 16,075 Gold Mine . 13.000 13,875 Cedar Rock 23,000 10,250 Cypress Creek 10,500 5,175 Louisburg 59.000 111,875 Jury List The following is a list of jurors drawn by the Board of County Commissioners for the regular March term of Franklin Superior Court for the trial of Civil cases, the two weeks term to begin on March 6th, 1944: First Week Dunn ?
