This month marks the third ami
versary of Russell Mizell's practice
of giving a dollar bill to each in
ductee of Montgomery County Selec-
tive Service Board No. 2, Silver
Spring, as he leaves for active serv-
ice. Today, he gave a dollar to his
third son entering the service. To
other youths he has given away
about $500 and he plans to con-
tinue for the duration
A Kensington lumberman with
seven children, Mr.. Mizell ordinarily
doesn't present the bills in person
because, he says. the good -bys are
too pathetic. Today, however, he
was persuaded to because his son,
Fred B. Mizell, was among the group
to leave.
Three years ago when Howard. 25.
his first son to join, left July 18 for
the induction center Mr. Mizell was
present. He heard one youth ask his
mother for quarter. After much
searching in her pocketbook she
finally handed the boy the money.
Inquiring from Stephen James,
chairman of the board, If many of
the inductees went away with empty
pockets he was told that they did
Since then. as every group of
selectees left the board headquarters
in the early morning hours to begin
life in the armed forces, each one
has been presented a dollar III an
envelope bearing the words Best
wishes from Russell Mizell."
Mr.. Mizell disclaims any praise for
his gifts. The letters of thanks I've
gotten are worth far more than all
the money I've given" he said, add
ing that practically all his children
are through college and Il couldn t
find better use for my money"
The hundreds of letters Mr.. Mizell
has received are evidence of this.
Most of the servicemen say they
will keep the money as a good luck
token, others return it to their wives
to have the bill autographed by Mr..
Mizell and kept as war souvenir,
many others use it in an emergency,
while some give it to the Red Cross.
