Teach Your Children Thrift
with jJ^GREEN STAMPS
Many families use S&H Green Stamps to help
their children learn the all-important habit of saving.
They use them as awards for doing chores around the
home. For instance . . .
So many S&H Green Stamps each week to daugh
ter for drying the dishes or helping clean house ... so
many to sonny for mowing the lawn or for other odd
jobs. Many housewives tell us it’s a wonderful way
to accomplish the twofold purpose of rewarding youngs :
ters for tasks well done and showing them how thrift
pays.
Youngsters of every age from tots to teens love
S&H Green Stamps because they can redeem them for
a wide variety of quality items that are dear to chil
dren’s hearts. Try this plan in your
home. You’ll be truly amazed to find
how well it works.

Questions About
Blood Program
Are Answered
The Red Cross Bloodmobile will
visit Newberry on Monday, Sep
tember 26, between the hours of
2 and 7 p.m. The location will be
the Fellowship Hall of the First
Baptist Church.
This is the second of six visits
that are scheduled for Newberry
County. The quota for this visit
is 100 pints. On the last visit to
Newberry the Bloodmobile collect
ed 93 pints of blood and probably
would have collected considerably
more if it had not been for the
bad weatner.
Below is a list of questions and
answers in helping you decide to
give blood.
1. Who can give blood?
Any person age 21 through 59
who’s in good health and weighs
110 pounds or more. Those 18-20
years of age may also give blood,
provided they have parental con
sent. But persons 18 through 20
who are in the Armed Forces or
are married do not need parental
consent.
2. How often may one give
blood?
Donations may be made once
every 8 weeks, but not more than
five times in any 12 months.
3. Can pregnant women donate
blood?
No, mothers may donate 12
months after delivery.
4. Should a donor avoid certain
foods before giving blood?
Yes, during a four hour period
before his donation, a donor
should avoid heavy, fatty foods.
Included are: eggs, meat, cream,
salad dressings, butter, fried
foods, and the like.
5. Should a donor avoid any
foods following donations?
No, he is entirely free to return
to his normal healthful diet.
6. How much blood is in the
body?
In the average, healthy adult,
12 to 13 pints.
ters, among whom are Mrs. J. O.
Johnson and Mrs. Temple S. Car
penter, both of Chappells; and
one brother.
Graveside services were con
ducted in Soule Chapel Methodist
Church Cemetery near Chappells
Tuesday at 2 p.m. by the Rev. H.
M. Fulmer.
7. Does a donor experience any
noticeable effects from giving
blood?
A healthy person should feel
none whatever.
8. Does giving blood lower resis-
tence to illness.
No. Donating a pint of blood is
comparable to an afternoon’s ex
ercise. The Medical Doctor, nurses,
and volunteer workers take every
precaution for the patient’s safe
ty.
9. Does the Red Cross charge
for blood collected through its
centers? ^ ^
Never. Blood collected through
the Red Cross is provided as a
public service^ Tinder no circum
stance does the Red Cross ask for
or receive payment for blood.
10. Then what charges are re
lated to a blood transfusion?
Blood collected by the Red
Cross is provided to physicians
and hospitals for care of their
patients. Before blood can be ad
ministered to a patient, a sample
of the patient’s blood must be tak
en and typed; then it is cross-
matched with the Red Cross btood
to be sure that it will not cause
a reaction. This, of course, must
be done for the patient’s safety,
as a severe reaction could cause
instant death. The cost of this
laboratory service and the cost of
the set through which the blood
is given are charged to the pa
tient. The American Red Cross
does not provide this service. The
cost to the patient for this labora
tory service and administrative
materials at the Newberry Coun
ty Memorial Hospital is $10.50 for
the first transfusion. Each addi
tional transfusion is only $7.50 as
the blood typing procedure is not
repeated. There is no charge made
for American Red Cross Blood.
“The Red Cross Blood program
plays a vital role in the health
and welfare of Newberry County;
so if at all possible please give a
pint of your blood,” said Law
rence Richardson, chairman of the
County Red Cross Chapter.

(Editor's Note: Mary Sirovs, young
Laurtfville, Ohio, mother, tells in her
own words the Iragk story of what
happens in a- family when a child is
born with a serious birth defect.)
By MARY STROUS
Cur baby Laura was born on
- Mother’s Day seven years ago.
W? lost Laura seven weeks
later on Father’s Day.
She gave a soft little sigh as
she died in my arms. My hus
band and I buried her with the
rattle to which she had clung
tightly during her brief life.
But Laura, who died of the
terrible birth defects known as
open spine and too much fluid
on the brain, still lives in the
hearts of her father Don and
myself. When asked by stran
gers, we always say we have
three daughters (instead of
really only two), and I want
to explain why.
We feel that each of us, in
cluding our tiny Laura, is
brought into the world to serve
a purpose, even if our stay on
earth is as tragically short as
49 days.
For years we were numbed
by our baby’s passing. But to
day we recognize that in being
asked by The National Foun
dation to renew our memories
of those despairing seven
weeks, my husband and I are
somehow fulfilling the purpose
of Laura’s fleeting visit with us.
That purpose is to repeat as
forcefully as we can the les
sons we have learned:
1. Scientists insist that par
ents should not be ashamed
over the birth of an infant with
a congenital malformation; in
stead, face the situation bravely
and seek professional advice.
Feelings ot guilt aren’t justi
fied.
2. There is no medical evi
dence that birth defects are
always hereditary; and
3. There is no evidence that
because a couple have had one
defective baby, they are likely
to have another. Doctors at
Columbus, Ohio, near our farm
at Laurelville, said our chances
of having another malformed
baby were something like one
in 40,000. (Donna Marguerite,
Mary: Sfrousr of Ohio, and daughters Julia Ann, 4wo, and

thing / was >r > wrong with us
physically, or, that a shameful
defect had been inherited from
our forebears (later proved
untrue), and that we were
thus responsible tor this cruelty
to an innocent baby.
Never: wiU we forget the
frantic drive, while our baby
was dying,' to ©Ur church so
hat she might be baptised be
fore she left us. In some way
our congregation had learned
of the reason for our headlong
visit, and the tears of those
sorrowing folks flowed with
ours.
Our Laura was one of 250,000
babies born each year in our
country with significant birth
detects; that tragic total is
growing with our increasing
population. Our baby was one
of 34,000 who in addition die
from titetse congeni
tal malformations; and that
awful figure is also mounting.
At last, something construc
tive is being done about birth
defects. With March of Dimes
contributions. The National
Foundation is directing a broad
study of this devastating puz
zle, just as it fought polio and
in time found the Salk vaccine
to prevent it
With a donation in January
from each of us, in time there
will be many fewer Lauras in
our land.
