MAYOR W. D. JAMES ISSUES STATEMENT

Mayor W. D. James issued today | from his office the following statement, endorsing the 1940 Christmas Seal Sale of the Putnam County Tuberculosis Association, which will open here on Monday, Nov. 25: “With a sense of fulfilling official duty as Mayor and with Wholehearted commendation as a private citizen, 1 hereby endorse the purchase of Christmas Seals as a method of raising funds for the great national fight against tuberculosis. “The approach of the holiday season once again has brought to th»citizens of Greencastle the simple, direct appeal of the campaign. Each tiny seal is a contribution toward a cause of the utmost worthiness. To protect homes -all our homes—from the tragedies caused by the ravages of tuberculosis is the unwavering objective of the annual Christmas Seal campaign. We pride ourselves that ours is a community of homes. Shall we not join. then, in this unequali-

firdly deserving cause?

"I hope that all our citizens will buy as many seals as possible this year. Let every greeting card and gift package that goes forth from Greencastle carry these small decorations, attesting that our community is a\ive to its responsibilities and is

ioing its part in a great

drive."

IN MEMORY Bee In loving memory of our mother, Linnie Jane Bee who passed away Nov. 23, 1938. One by one they go before us, They are fading like the dew, But we know they are watching o’er us, They, the good, the fair, the true. They are waiting for us only, Where no pain can ever mar, Dear ones who left us lonely, Watch us through the gates ajar. There a mother, there a father, Gone within those gates ajar. Sadly missed by children and grandchildren.
