"We respectfully, sincerely and earnestly appeal to each of you to please help us search out these forgotten men in every part of North Carolina, starting today and continuing to concentrate on this great effort for the next ninety days, to the end that all such disabled veterans shall re ceive the benefit of the kind of expert service, advice and help thay so urgently need in filing claims of this kind. When you suc ceed in getting a Part III claim favorably acted upon, that means you have rendered a truly re markable service to that indivi dual disabled veteran from that time on as long aa he lives, and it will also be a great Bervlce to his family and community. There are literally hundreds of such worthy disabled veterans in North Caro lina — some in every county. "This special drive and really organized effort in behalf of all such disabled men in North Can>-| tina can be the real success such I Jisabled veterans have a right v. < - ipreekj Under the sponsorship of the Key Club Committee of the Kiw anls Club, the Millers Creek High School Key Clnb was organised on Monday.
