Brevard Club Donates $10 To The Infantile Pa ralysis Fund The Brevard Kiwanis club do nated $10 to the Infantile Paralysis fund drive at their meeting Friday night at the Bryant House. Dr. E. J. Coltrane, chairman of the Kiwanis Education program, was speaker of the evening, and spoke on objectives for 1944, prin cipal one of which is support of the war effort, he explained. Dr. Coltrane said that it was doubly fitting that objectives of Kiwanis could be discussed inas much as 29 years ago on Jan. 21 the first Kiwanis club was organi zed in Detroit. When World War I was carried to America there were 89 clubs with a membership of 4,000. Today, he pointed out, there are 2,200 clubs in the United States and Canada with a member ship of 122,986. Of this total, 11, 000 members are in the armed forces of the country, and 55 mem bers have offered up the supreme sacrifice. Slogan Adopted Dr. Coltrane said that the initial Kiwanis club 29 years ago adopted as a slogan “We Build,” and in his opinion building is still the main objective of Kiwanis. Com paratively, there are hardly more than 10 per cent of the Kiwanis membership in the armed forces, therefore, the speaker said, it is with the other 90 per cent that support of the war effort, building the finances of the country through bond buying, and keeping up the morale of those whom the mem bership comes in contact with is left. Should Combat Lies “Building is the needed work of Kiwanians, not only in the financial and material type of structures,” the speaker said, “but in building good will here at home for our allies, and seeing to it that such lies as that started last week by Hitler and Tojo in regard to the ‘separate peace’ movement is nipped in the bud,” Dr. Coltrane emphasized. Dr. Coltrane said that the Bryant House furnished better meals than any meeting place of more than 25 clubs he had visited during the past year, and while he stated that good food is essential, the fellow ship of members, the moves that are started by such a group of 37 men getting together, and the building that naturally ensues, is the laudable item of Kiwanians. Father Of Brevard i Lady Died On Mon. Charles L. Garner, 73, father of Mrs. T. W. Phillips, of Brevard, died at his home in Franklin on Jan. 17, following a stroke of pa ralysis suffered a few minutes previously.

Third biggest epidemic of this thing in recorded history in the USA. This was back on YOUR front in 1943. It was a great break for the kids—you kids and mine—that there was the NATIONAL FOUNDATION FOR INFANTILE PARAL YSIS to fight the Crippler. But fighting costs money.
