ENTERED AS SECOND-CLASS MATTER AUGUST 20, 1928, AT THE POSTOFFICE AT TRYON, N. C. UNDER THE ACT OF CONGRESS, MARCH 3, 1879 THE TRYON DAILY BULLETIN 5c COPY (The World’s Smallest Daily Newspaper) s vtbth M. Vining. Editor Vol. 14. Eajb. 1-31-28 CURB REPORTER A note on my typewriter from Major Sharp says: “Please run a small ad to the effect that there ought to be more old magazines and books’lying around that might be placed in schools, etc., in the county. Also suggest delivering to your office.” So there is the ad. If readers cf books and magazines are willing to save them when they are through with them and bring them to The Bulle tin office for distribution to read ing hungry people who can’t afford to buy them; and if Major Sharp is willing to see that the maga zines and bocks are distributed to these people, the Bulletin is glad to run a free notice about it and to furnish a place to keep them until the Major calls fcr them .... Robert T. Burnett of Atlanta was in Monday and renewed his subscription to the Bulletin. S'ays it helps to keep him in touch with Tryon friends. He has been visiting his parents, Rev. and Mrs. C. P. Burnett. Dur ing the weekend he attended the Fordham-Carolina football game at Chapel Hill .....

Tryon high school football team __ Continued on Back Pane . $1.50 Year in the Carolinaa TRYON, N C., TUESDAY, OCT. 14, 1941 COMMUNICATIONS (From Clifton Fadiman) To the Editor: As the Christmas season nears, we shall hear again over the air and in the air all the sweet carols which have come to us from Brit ain; we will listen to the story of Bob Cratchitt and Tiny Tim, and the re-generation cf Mr. Ebenezer Scrooge. All the British customs which we have adopted here in celebration of Christmas the Yule Log, the boar’s head, peace ful hearths and happy laughter— all of these fine old British tradi tions will make us think even more unhappily of Christmas in Britain this year. Os the thousands of little British boys and girls, bomb ed out of their homes, living among strangers in emergency billets, with no prospect of any thing like a Merry Christmas. We in America, if we act at once, can give these homeless British youngsters the happy Christmas which they do not now expect. The British War Relief Society, 730 Fifth Avenue, New York, is appealing for gifts to send packages of American toys and sweets on a ship leaving New York harbor before November Ist. A contribution of $1 will buy a Christmas parcel for one British child. This is a magnificent op portunity for lovers of children to be generous in the immemorial spirit of Christmas, a real chance to send your personal greeting to Tiny Tim in his bleak little billet. Donations may be left at the Tryon office of the British War Relief Society. 5c COPY
