grateful acknowledgment to all our
friends who are subscribing to the |
Firemen's Fund. All contributions,
small as we'll as large, will be thank
fully received. Remember, "every
little bit, added to a little bit, makes
just little bit more" Therefore,
please be sure to get your name en-
rolled on the honor list when the So
lcitors call on you. If you haven't
the cash handy, subscribe anyhow, as
this is not 'pay as you enter" prop
osition. The collectors will call later
for the money, and they will call to
suit your convenience. Their names
will be announced in due time, so you
may know they are the properly au-
/ thorized persons to receive the money
and are not takers. In case you own
bank account, a good plan will be
to pay by check drawn in favor of
Citizens Hose Company. This re-
minds us of that noble bunch of
Smyrna boys and girls living away
from home now, but who have gener
ously responded to the appeals of our
Firemen, which shows they still have
an interest in the cold home town"
Thus far their contributions make up
one fourth of the total received from
all sources. Talk about your 1000
Americans, they're GIT" Their names
along with our progressive citizens
who are supporting this movement

generations will know who to thank

to-date building. Anybody who thinks
