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.

Community Chest . .
(Cont'd, from Page 1)
throughout the year in the
mills. 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.
