BOOK CAMPAIGN
ENDS SATURDAY
Roland w. Bell, Local Chair
man, Asks for More Con-
tributiOns of Books
FOR MEN IN SERVICE

The Victory Book Campaign,
which collects volumes donated to
the soldiers, sailors and marines
will close this Saturday, Mr.. Ro-
land w. Bell, local chairman has
announced. There are still num-
ber of books in Smyrna not yet giv-
en- that should be included in this
towns contributions, said Mr..
Bell. While no definite quota was
set for. Smyrna, this town has sent
to the Dover headquarters a total
of 482 books. In Mr.. Bells opin-
ion, this number should be consider
ably increased. There are many
people here, he said, who have not
taken the trouble to look over their
books and weed out" those vol
umes that could be spared. A
phone call to 1851 will bring a
prompt response to collect any
books, Mr.. Bell stated.
Many Types Needed
Many types of books are accept
able, including books of travel, ad-
venture, history, biography, mys-
terry and fiction. Text books, es-
pecially mathematic, physics and
history, are needed, Mr.. Bell said,
for the service men who are study
ing for their commissions. These
books, collected during the cam
paign, are placed in Libraries at
training camps, on board ships, and
in USO Centers throughout the
country and at foreign bases. "As
Chairman of the Victory Book
Campaign here, wish to thank all
those persons who have already
books" said Mr.. Bell.
