PAGE TWO — T* — 7 ' * THE YANCEY RECORD I ESTABLISHED JULY, 1936 Editor Mrs. C. R. Hamrick Managing Ed 7 ...... Lee E. Edwards Published Every Thursday By YANCEY PUBLISHING CO, A Partnership Entered M second—class matter November 11th, 1936, at the Boat Office, at Burnsville, North Carolina, under the Act of March S, 1879. TO THE PEOPLE OF YANCEY COUNTY I know you are familiar with the unselfish and in valuable work done by the committee for the celebra tion of the President’s birthday in the past, and there is very little news that I might be able to give you on the subject. How ever there are a few things which might be of interest to you. In the first place, if the $210.00 is raised in Yancey county, $105.00 will stay in the county for needy cases here. This is not a political campaign. It is not a hit or miss campaign, but it is a campaign - which sho u 1 d concern every person re gardless of race, color, creed, or politics. It is a campaign in which you and I should do everything in our power to see that it proves a success. Infantile paralysis is a disease over which we have very little control. Your children might be well and happy one day and the next day they might be striken with this disease. If such a thing should happen we want to be prepared to help take care of the. child in the best way we know how. Money raised through this campaign has been put to many uses. Scrawling, little children of the slums, who were strangers to the sun with their lungs aching from lack of fresh air, have been taken to summer camps. Hospital wings have been built, bandages bought, and food baskets filled. Iron lungs have been purchased to breathe back life into pain-racked little bodies: Precious serums have been bought to pour life into shriveling limbs. Determined, self-less scien tists have been financed to carry on the research into the dreadful and mystify ing ways and wherefores of this terrible disease.
