Need For Blood Continues
Many are asking: “Why is
there such an emergency need for
blood? The war’s over!” The
answer is: “There’s always urgent
need for blood.” Medical research
is constantly finding new and im
portant uses for blood derivatives.
Daily, lives which only a short
time ago would have been lost are
being saved—by the use of human
blood and its derivatives.
The Asheville Blood Center last
week reported its reserve supply
of blood at a dangerously low
ebb. The blood supply, upon which
we of Polk County depend ii\ our
emergencies, can be built up only
by voluntary contributions here
and in the other communities
served by the Asheville Center. If
even one life should be lost be
cause blood was not available,
how deeply we would regret it
if we’d been “too busy” to go to
Blood Bank!
So plan to come on Friday,
Sept. 11, between 12:30 and 6, to
donate your pint either at the
Parish House in Tryon or at
Stearns School in Columbus. Baby
sitters will be on duty at both
places. For transportation call
Tryon 53 or Columbus 2245 or
2162.—Red Cross Reporter.
