The. goal is thus only s694.e0 away.

 One of the amusing incidents of the campaign that came to light Wednes- day had to do with Tax Collector Thomas A. Robinson and the contribu- ton that he obligingly furnished to the fund The jealous worker to whom his name was assigned sought him out at his office in the town hall, but not finding him there was told that he could probably be found at his home on Main street near the post office as he had shortly before started home for dinner.
 Off to the Robinson home straight way speeded the solicitor and with such dispatch that she reached the house before MT. Robinson had ar rived.
 Yes. certainly, AIr Robinson would soon be home and was probably eben then on the way along Main street. ? was the helpful response at the Rob- 1nson door. It was suggested that the collector might meet him on the way.
 Another helpful suggestion from a member of the family comes to the rescue of the eager worker There is a picture of MT. Robinson upstairs. You can look at that and then you will know when you meet him."
 The plan worked like a charm, for hardly had the collector left the house ft7s1r, e-t11 -ax.4f f1,x& nized him at once and of course se- cured his name on her subscription list To her credit it can be said that she failed not to secure a contribu- ant who laid the trap for the genial public official.
 In the contributions of Wednesday there were six of $25. Two of these were given anonymously and one was In Memoriam.
