BOndurant and King are still in the

now drawing near a close. Owens is
next, with Bell close third with

been in getting workers, not in getting
responses The people have responded
splendidly-even beyond expectation I:
not in large sums, to be sure, but the
feeling is that they5are doing the best
they can under the circumstances. The
members of the committee of manage
ment who know of the situation, are
greatly pleased with the response the
people have made And if only the
workers were sufficient i'm number, and
showed the proper activity, the $1,000
which is needed for the budget of the
year would he easily raised.

while not largely attended, was, very
