Kiwanian J. LeGrande Mayer, pastor of St John’s Lutheran church, became a member of the Clinton Kiwanis club in June 1939. Since that time he has proved that he is a true Kiwanian through his support of the program of the Clin ton club and of” Kiwanis Interna tional. For the past two years he has served most effectively as the club’s secretary and treasurer. His work in this capacity has received commen dation and high praise from the dis trict lieutenant governor and secre tary. He has given of his time and efforts unceasingly to make sure that the work of his office was weQ done. “We deeply regret that LeGrande and his family have been called from our community. We have learned to love them, and their going will leave an empty place in our circle of friends. We cannot refrain from say ing that we envy Charleston the privilege of hMdnf the Mayers as Its citizens. — “We kntwTCt LeGrande—and we like that nSme—is a good man, a good Kiwanian, and a good secretary- treasurer. We also know that Mrs. Mayer is largely responsible for his being what he is. We would like for them to come forward together and receive this token of our esteem and friendship, and we hope that it will help them to keep a warm spot in their hearts for Clinton, especially the Clinton Kiwanis club.” — t Kappa Sigma Alumni BIRTHDAYS AND ANNIVERSARIES NOTED tends Greettncs rsKvs. Standard Oil Company Buys Building Here It was reported in the city yester day that the Purol building and bus station on East Carolina avenue, owned by Mrs. J.
