I Lydia Camp fire March Goes Ahead "Making Lydia a better place for all of us to live in is the job Camp Fire Girls and their leaders are doing every day", said Mrs. Wallace in the send-off message for the ten week period of the Lydia Membership March. "The outstanding thing about Camp Fire is the way it helps look after our youngsters all rlurinn school voars from the time they're seven till they've finished high school. No one is left out for any reason at all. Nevertheless sometimes children are left out of the good times and skills Camp Fire offers them. And do you know why? Because volunteers have been shy about offering to take over new groups. "This community has more than enough mothers and older sisters to take care of all the children who want to join Camp Fire this year. And this is the time to line up and sign up and "Light the Way?With Camp Fire." concluded Mrs. Wallace. Happy birthday to Cora Mae Price, Sept. 23; Charles Fallow, Sept. 22; Steve O'Donald.

The same will be true this year, so make your donation as generous as possible because you will not be called upon again until the next drive in October of 1954. Following are the agencies receiving funds from the Drive and the amounts: Salvation Army, $700; Crippled Children, $1200; Red Cross. $2750; Cancer, $2,000; American Heart Foundation, $750; Campfire, Bluebirds and Horizon. $2,169; Boy Scout Council. $1400; Boy Scouts at both Mills, $800; Boy Scouts in town. $500; USO. $750; Emergency Fund, $1181; Administrative Expense for the Greater Clinton Chest, $800. A word of explanation might be made about the USO. Although there is no USO here, this money goes into the national fund and our boys in service receive benefits at USO installations where they are stationed. The Emergency Fund is an important reason why no further solicitations were necessary in the mills. Quite a number of families in both villages were helped in emergencies last year from this fund.
