Red Cross Quota Not Yet Reached As you recall the quota for F#rm rille was $2904.00 much higher than in previous years due to the increased iemands on the Red Cross. Regard less of this; the workers set out with great enthusiasm that the goal could tie reached, would be reached, and must be reached. For the most part they were re vived with a warm welcome and con- , ributions were cheerfully given. The nain obstacle that many encountered vas a misunderstanding that Red Dross was included in the Community Dhest Drive last Fall. This was in ieed unfortunate, for even when re- 1 ninded that it wasn’t, many citizens i 'ailed to make a contribution. Let’s tot let this happen ' in 1952! The .1 jreat work qt the Bed Cross has to go 1 in day after day and we must not 3 'ail it. In many instances it is our inly rheans of doing for our servioe nen, our veterans, filling our blood 1 leeds, assisting in disasters, and help ng our neighbors at home and far iway. Let’s keep it ready to answer mr call! If you haven’t done your bit to help farmville meet its quota it is not too ate! Mail your check immediately j ;o your chairman. Since it will be impossible for me :o thank each person who made a con ribution and each worker who gave if his time I wish to express my sin cere appreciation to everyone who had iny part in the 1952 American Red Dross Drive. — V.
