He was wearing a dark blue suit with tiny white stripes in it, light blue shirt, red fie and tan shoes. He has brown eyes and dark hair. His place of business is on Main street.

November 11th is the offi cial opening day. It is the most ur gent call yet. Our national authori ties are predicting a n unprecedented influenza epidemic 'this winter because of world-wide mass movements of the race (an<i war conditions which al ways greatly increase the work of mercy agencies. The Good Samari tan has work to do today. He dares not ‘pass by on the other side’. Our local quota is almost doubled ($2,- 225.00). We are faced with the campaign cry, ‘This year—MORE THAN EVER BEFORE!’ The city and county of Newberry has always measured up 100 per cent in every emergency challenge. Every indica tion to date is that we will carry through again. But we must have more gifts a n d greater gifts. We do not have a Community Chest cam paign to support, nor a Salvation CHAIRMAN ROLL CALL DRIVE REV. C.*A. CALCOTE Army Post, hut we do have our mercy agency in the Red Cross, which has always commanded the full respect and support of every loyal citizen and organization. You have a corps of hard-working, self-sacrificing, loyal men and women doing their very best in this campaign. With your usual, whole-hearted, ready response, we’ll meet the challenge. To date such or ganization as the Masons, Lions, P. T. A., Kiwanis, etc. are pledging full support. (All have not been contact ed yet.) “Every single non-eleemosynary (not supported by charity) organiza tions, both white and colored, big enough to have a treasury, will want to be loyal enough to arrange, as soon as possible, to forward a creditably proportionate gift to the Roll Gall chairman or office treasurer. It may be impossible to personally contact each one in the county, but that will not be necessary. “We are thinking such organiza tions as civic clubs, soc.al clubs, Par ent Teachers’ Associations, Granges, Lodges, Kiwanis, Rotary, Exchange, lion, Chambers of Commerce, County Demonstration Clubs, corporations, business or political, etc., will not want to ‘Pass us by on the other side’, even though most of their treasuries may be low or dry. The Good Samaritan will find a way and be blessed thereby. “Mercy is no respecter of organi zations nor persons. God’s creatures can much better afford to suffer and perish wSthout our proffered' gifts than we can afford 1 to live without sharing our utmost farthering with them. “ ‘He that showeth mercy shall ob tain mercy.’ Let us have merev! “Beloved, ‘Inasmuch as ye did it un to one of the least of these . . ” REV.
