Citizens Provide
School Lunches for
Needy Children

The citizens of Moss Point
through contributions to their
church organizations, civic and
social clubs and as individuals
have undertaken the task of pro-
viding lunches for the needy
children in the Charlotte Hyatt
elementary school.
Too small to assist in the cafe
terra, or to work for their lunches
and without lunch money small
children were going hungry un-
til the room mothers of the school
under the general craftsmanship
of Mrs. Lundy Heidelberg under
took a program to finance the
necessary lunches.
The cost of lunches for the
remainder of the school year is
$40 per child and this sum was
contributed by the citizens of
the town upon being told of the
need of the small children.
Each child who is recommend
ed for assistance is investigated
by the Jackson County Welfare
department workers and upon
its approval placed on the list
for free lunches.
In the Central high school
students are given an opportun-
ity of working in the cafeteria
in return for their lunches and
the Ed Mayo PTA is providing
for the needy children in the Ed
Mayo school. Funds were raised
at a gumbo supper this past
weekend.
Due to the fact that the num-
Der of children in need of as
sistance does not remain station
airy, the exact figures are I'M
available, but a report can be
made at the end of the school
year, authorities said. However,
it was stated all of the present
cases of needy children are being
provided for.

Gifts Of $325 And Shoes Received BY
March To School; so Children Helped

Approximately 1925 in cash,
offers to purchase four pair of
new shoes and bundles of out
grown clothing poured into the
March To School Golfers this
week as organizations and indivi-
duals in Jackson County rallied
to the call for help in clothing
needy children.
A dance sponsored by the Lions
Club for the benefit of the fund
yielded $500 which was turned
over to the Young Women's
Business Club, which is backing
the drive, and the Paseagoula
Kiwanis Club voted at a meeting
Tuesday to donate 500. The
Jackson and George Counties
Nurses Association decided at
a meeting Monday night to adopt
a child and underworld its de-
cision with. a gift of $23. The
nurses asked that they be notified
of the age of the child on whom
the money is spent so that they
may send things for the boy or
girl from time to time during
the winter.
The Business and Professional
Women are buying two pair of
shoes for needy children, the
Odd Fellows voted to buy two
pair of shoes and offered further
help in the future, and E. D.
Wright gave a number of articles
of clothing that had remained
unclaimed in his cleaning estab-
lishment for a year.
Students in the Home Eco
Monies department and members
of the Future Homemakers of
America club at the Pascagoula
High school have volunteered to
remake adult clothing into ar
ticles for children, Virgil Gill,
principal of the school announced
this week. In a talk before the
Kiwanis club, Mr.. Gill pointed
out that many men and women
may not have children of school
age whose outgrown clothing can
be passed on to some other child
but there are few persons who
do not have some clothing which
they can no longer use. The
girls will recut and refashion
this clothing into something suit
able for a boy or girl to wear to
school, he said. Clothing which
the donor thinks needs remodel
ing may be brought to the high
school and when it is finished it
will be turned over to the We'll
fare department.

Six children have been outfit

EUROPEAN RECOVERY
PROGRAM

Importance is stressed in Wash
ingtOn because Senators Taft and
Vandenberg, the two most impor-
tant Republican leaders of the Eu-
ropean Recovery Program legisla-
tion have let it be known that they
will stand together in determining
the amounts of appropriations for
the next fiscal year-and keep it
within the spending ceiling. The
two statesmen are on record as fav-
oring a spending ceiling that is
112-billiOn dollars lower than Pres
ident Truman's budget. The bulk
OF the savings are to come from
domestic rather than foreign spen-
ding.
There is a trend towards a gen.
eral understanding between the
Administration and Congress that
the amount Of the appropriation at
this time will be enough to carry
the Aid Plan through until the new
Congress meets in 1949.
