HAYESV1LLE - The March
of Dimes Campaign now
underway in Clay County is
offering donors a chance to get
into the fight against crippling
disease - especially birth de
fects or arthritis.
JOIN THE MARCH OF
DIMES, is the appeal of Clay
County Campaign Director,
Mrs. Barbara Jane Jones.
Mrs. Jones said this week,
"How many of you are aware
of the important things that
happen to the coins you may
place in a container in a local
store, or die bills you enclose
In the March gf Dimes enve
lope and mail back to your
local Campaign Director?"
"The March of Dimes which
gave us the Salk and Sabln
vaccines against polio, has
some good answers. Do you
think birth defects and arth
ritis, to which the March of
Dimes is now devoting its
major attention, important?
