Deur Teachers: The Junior Red Cross is a voluntary organization thru which children and yoting people find opportunity for self-expression. The motive which it brings into any class room appeals to the imagination and will of children in such away as to transmute knowledge into action. The Junior Red Cross' seeks, “To promote health, to de-1 velop the altruistic tendencies in . children, to give practice in good ! citizenship and to promote international friendliness among the children of the world." It is not to divert the children from their own work, but *o strenthen them in it. It brings to the school, not an instrument which may be used byteachers to facilitate their own proper work because it gives new incentives and new social outlets

It’s a SWEET Thins To Do—Use I f SPARKLING I 111 CRYSTAL WHITE I SUGAR | To The WOMEN OF DECATUR and VICINITY: Ik We are making this public appeal to the women of Decatur who || buy the food which goes upon the family table. Ask for SPARKLING || CRYSTAL WHITE SUGAR, when you buy sugar from your grocer and ■ insist upon having it. || It is made right here at home by local labor in Indiana's onh beet | sugar plant and its the finest granulated sugar made. Every time you buy | a pound of sugar made in Decatur you help to reduce unemployment in j this community. i Dale McMillen has come here, invested his money, opened up nur sugar factory, given employment to more than 350 people and we feel that we owe him our cooperation and support. Don't you feel the same way « about it, Mrs. Housewife? Then ask for SPARKLING CRYSTAL M HITE |! SUGAR, made in Decatur when vou buy sugar at your local grocery. It 1 is good sugar, the very best that is made. It has no equal for table use. S for cooking and preserving. || The beet growers of this vicinity will receive approximately H $500,000.00 for this year's crop from the sale of sugar, pulp and mo- m , lasses. Does it mean anvthing to you that this large sum of money » J released into the channels of trade in this communitv? Whether your || particular breadwinner is employed at the sugar factory or not. you wr.l || be helped bv prosperous conditions here. So. if you love your community. || if vou want to help bring back good times, if you want to help the other || fellow who has been out of work so long, buy Sparkling Crystal hue || Sugar when you buy your groceries. It may not seem to you that buying || a few pounds of sugar on your part, will help very much, but we a ssu^ e Ij ’ vou it will. If everv woman in Decatur and vicinity will buy only Spark- || ling Crystal White Sugar, we will have done our part. There is very little unemployment in Decatur right now — thats || something to tell the world about. Will vou not help to keep up prosper- || ous conditions in Decatur? Then Buy Sparkling Crystal White Sugar and use no other. i| ' ' ■ / ■ ' ‘ ’ || (Published in the interest of local industry h and as a little reminder that we are better p off here than in most places.) r ( » Decatur Chamber of Commerce
