Highlands Aids Bundles For Britain With Scrap Metal The Bundles for Britain move ment here has developed a new angle in addition to sweater " knit ting, and that is th,e collecting of scrap-iron, ' copper and aluminum by the children of Highlands school to be sold to the government for use in the defense program, the proceeds from the sales to be used in turn to .supply Bundles for Britain. Incidentally the school children have just practiced a self denial week, giving pennies, nickles and dimes usually spent for candy to aid in Bundles for Britain, with the result that the school was able to give the sum of $9.42 to th,e organization chairman last week for the purchase of sweater; yarns. , ' ' One very enthusiastic, citizen advises that by cleaning up a bit around his own home, he was, able to realize a little more than five dollars from "scraps" sold in Asheville. Visualizing that carload shipments would bring in several hundred dollars for the fund, he has started a scrap-iron pile on Main Street next door to the pool hall, which he hopes to sec grow bv leaps and bounds when citizens in this community bring in their odd bits of iron. He' cautions that what is brought must be either steel or iron and not tin. No matter how old or rusty the iron may be, or how large or small the piece, bring it along and when there is enough to fill a freight car, it is planned to haul it to Franklin for shipment to Pitts burgh where '.-it will be sold to government factories. f The thr.ec-fold . result' of this phase of Bundles for Britain- is that we will not only he helping our country in its defense program, but in part at least, the suffering of the British people, and at the same time cleaning up our own premises. The Mairi Street "junk heap" when viewed in its relation to Bundles for Britain, will be. a thing of beauty and not an eye sore. Show your patriotism, and let's see how fast the heap can be made to grow.
