RED CROSS ANGLES A most welcome unsolicited contiihuticn to the Putnam county 1944 Red Cross War Fund has come from the recently di;banded Fillmore Band. Realizing $219.17 from the sale of instruments, it was voted to donate the entire s um to Red Cross. The musical organization had been under the direction of Frank Martin. Officers wen- Roscoe Eastman, president; Mrs. Lula Clift, secretary; Mrs. Worth Arnold, treasurer. In addition to the instruments, tnere were additional band properties that were owned by Jake Hoffman. 1 be sale irom these brought $26 70. Mr, Hoffman asked that this sum be donated to Red Cross, also. This amount is to be credited to Floyd township's quota md the money from t ie sale of the instruments is to be divided between Floyd and Marion townships. A V-mail letter has come, to Sam Hanna, chairman of the Itid Cross U ar 9 und for Putnam county, from Capt. Marshall L> Abrams, formerly judge of Putnam County Circuit Court, and now on duty in England. The letter is as follows. "Since T arrived in England the newspapers have not caught up with me, so I am not sure of what is going on at home, but T seem to remember that this month you were to have the Red Cross War Fund Drive. It may be of interest to you to know that just before I came on board ship to leave the good old T£ S. A. the Red Cross was there with doughnuts and coffee, and when we landed here the first thing we saw when we stepped on land again was the Red Cross with more doughnuts and coffee. I hiv,; pot traveled much here, but one Sunday I visited quite a large city neahby, and the only place a soldier could get a decent meal was at the American Red Cross It was a genuine pleasure, after the rigers of barracks life, to sit down in front of a fireplace and toast my shins and just be plain downright comfortable once again. • This does not sound like a big service, but when you've been exposed to everything nature can put out, it's wonderful to get a touch of home and comfort for a few hours. I am also impressed with the type of personnel in charge of the Red Cross over here. They have been carefully selected and know their business." “May I wish you the best of luck, Sam. I’m quite sure that Putnam
county will oversubscribe, as she at
enlisted | ways has. I, for one, can say that the
r •i s squad recently defeating the
‘VUat Officers, 32-30. A picture of the 1 asm ions and a write-up on the garie appeared in the March 17 Issu’
of the paper at the Base,
money is being well spent.”
Capt. Abrams will be proud of his home county when he learns she has over-subscribed to the tune of more than seven thousand dollars, to date.
The second annual Firemen's Ball, given in the Bowman gymnasium on Saturday evening, was a splenO 1 success, it was reported Monday. Many attended the dance and enjoyed the music of Fred Cizek’s orchotra from Terre Haute. The city firemen worked hard to make the event most entertainin, and they expressed their approciation today for the response of Greencastle, Putnam county, and university people.
