POLK COUNTY GIVES
$967.40 TO RED‘CROSS
#The Polk County Chapter of the
American Red Cross has once more
Urpassed itself! The annual Roll
Call, which ended on November
30th, resulted in total contributions
of $967.40. Last year, the total
was $920.00, and the year before
that, which broke. all previous
records, was $498.30. This is a
wonderful record, considering that
in the spring, residents of the
County, contributed for War Relief
more than SIBOO. The total for
this year was made up of two
rontributions of $50.00, six of $lO,
28 of $5, 560 of $1 and contribu
tes of less than one dollar in
the amount of $107.40. Special
mention should be made of the
fact that memberships from cor
dons of the County outside of Try
on were larger than ever before,
including $36 from Saluda, $39.85
from Columbus, Mill Spring and
Gap, S2O from Green
The thanks of the Chapter
due to all who helped to’ make
this the banner year.,
EAZAAR A SUCCESS !
The St. Agnes Guild Christmas
Bazaar was the best yet from the
standpoint of attendance and sales
receipts. All the reports have not
been made and a more detailed ac
count will be given later. The tea
served on the stage, the sales
booths, the decorations and the
friendliness of the hostesses all
added charm to the Christmas
spirit. The proceeds will be used
for the Guild’s regular charity
work and a part for the British
War Relief.
