Yet this has been accomplished by Sidney Hollaender, president of the Ever Ready Label corporation. In plaque form, his Credo now is on display in thousands of school classrooms and school pupils throughout the country have miniature reproductions of it pasted on their textbooks. He has distributed millions of • copies of his Credo at his own ex pense. The Credo reads: “There’s No Way Like the Amer ican Way . . . Because “I can go to any church please— “I read, see and hear what I choose— “I can express my opinions •openly— “My mail reaches me as sent . . . uncensored— “My telephone is untapped— “I can join any political party I 'Wish— “I can vote for what and whom J please— “I have a constitutional right to trial by jury— “I am protected against search and seizure— “Neither my life nor my property can be forfeited without due pro cess of law.” TXT Christmas Seal * Sale Report 1 , The final returns from the 34th annual Christmas Seal Sale of the South Carolina Tuberculosis Asso ciation and the affiliated . county associations amount to $89,586.52 according to a report distributed to the newspapers of the state yesterday by Associate Justice E. X. Fishburne, . State Chairman. Expressing his thanks and con gratulations to county and com munity Christmas Seal chairmen and to the many organizations and individuals who assisted in the campaign thru the selling or purchasing of Christmas Seals, and Bonds, Judge Fishburne said that the results of the sale far exceeded those of any previous year, and should be a source of satisfaction to the volunteers who served in the campaign and to the tuberculosis associations that liad received such generous sup port for their work. Of the total amount raised in the 1940 Christmas Seal Sale 5% will be spent on the program •directed by the National Tuber culosis Association; 21% on the activities of the state association and 74% on local programs of Xealth education, case-finding an^ treatment.

She has found time outside work ing hours to write short stories, and has just had her first light fiction novel, “Twin Trouble,” ac cepted by a publisher! Marjorie Barge, 18, pretty daugh ter of a Boston army officer, has been chosen official mascot of the tfiers in the U. S. 101st Observa tion squadron. Shown here vvl'h her sponsors, her job is to b~ " them good weather for their SQUADS WRITE! THE NATION’S NEWEST MILI TARY UNIT is composed entirely of pretty girls! They call it “Squads Write,” and their sole objective is to give boys in army camps the thrill of personal let ters, without any attempt to turn such correspondence to any sel fish or material end. Miss Addie Capital of Chicago, who heads the “patriotic” movement, refuses to say whether any romance that may blossom out of the corre spondence can be termed a “sel fish or material end.” DING DONG MISS EDITH L. METCALF is a school marm, but in a class all by herself! Five days a week oh the steps of a “little red schoolhouse” in Franklin, Mass., she rings an old-fashioned call bell which brings her 37 pupils into a 120- year-old brick building, now one of the few “little red schoolhouses” in use. Miss Metcalf attended the school herself as a little girl. GROWING UP YOUNG WOMEN (and men, too) are taller and heavier than they used to be, a University of Ken tucky survey indicates.

Tryon, Char lotte, No. Carolina, tried Williams Formula and in his own words tells of his experience. “I was troubled with gassy stomach pains, and as a result sometimes didn’t even feel like eating the meal before me. Cer tain foods brought about sour in digestion and made me feel miserable. “Often I was up several times during the night and distressed with acid-urinary pains, but now I am experiencing fine relief with Williams Formula. I enjoy eating many more foods, too, and Wil liams Formula has relieved the gassy pains and the uncomfortable feeling after eating. I’m glad to tell others about Williams Formu la.” And when such praise is volun tarily given—when one of your own neighbors has found Williams Formula so satisfactory, don’t you think it would be wise to try this fine medicine yourself?
