THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1956 THE NEWBERRY SUN Christmas Seal Sale To Begin The 50th Annual Christmas Seal Sale will begin on November 14, when the seals will be mailed to residents of this county. Tuberculosis is one of the ma jor health problems confronting the American people. While im portant advances have been made toward the control of the disease, there remains much to be done and necessary funds are needed to carry on this work. Newberry County is short of the amount needed to successful ly carry on the yearly operations of the association, which include the maintenance and operation of all the tuberculosis control and health education projects in the county. Almost 90 percent of the money collected here is applied to local use. The fact that new cases in the county showed a marked in crease in 1955 is convincing evi dence that the fight against this enemy must be carried on as re lentlessly as ever. The Tuberculosis association does not belong to any fund-rais ing campaign and depends en tirely upon the sale of our penny seal to fight tuberculosis. Newberrians are urged to re turn the envelope with their do nations of a penny a seal or more to the Newberry County Tubercu losis Association.

Announcement of his appoint ment as an NADA Area Chair man was made jointly this week by officials of both organisations. “Area Chairmen are key figures in all dealer programs sponsored by the national and state associa tions,” said Carl E. Fribley, NA DA president and one of the of ficials who appointed Mr. Kem per. “He serves his association in two ways. First, he is an of ficial spokesman for NADA at the local level. We will depend on Mr. Kemper to keep all dealers in Newberry County informed on the activities of his national and state associations. Second, he is responsible for keeping our mem berships strong numerically.” J. W.

James Hunter, State Di rector of Selective Service for South Carolina, disclosed that there are yet some young men age 18 and over who have not registered with selective service. The Universal Military Training and Service Act provides that ev ery male person shall register on attaining 18 years of age, or within 5 days thereafter. A per son failing to register at the pro per time may be considered de linquent, and as a delinquent is subject to penalties provided by law. The law further imposes a continuing duty on every young man, once he has reached the age of eighteen. Membership in the Reserves or National Guard does not relieve a young man of his duty with selective services to register. Lt. Col. Hunter urges every man of draft age to be sure to register in the event he has not already- done so. Registration may be accomplished at any Se lective Service local board.
