REACT|VATED USO
ASKING FOR $3.50
Hugh Sweeney's Committee
SOlicits Laurel OrganiZa-
tiOnS For Quota

Because many army and other
service bases have been reopened,
at which numerous young men
are now away from home for the
first time of any great length,
the United Services Organization
has also been reactivated and
needs money to carry on its work.
Hugh Sweeney was recently APP
pointed Laurel chairman by Ar
thur r. Meyer, county chairman,
to raise Laurel's quota of $3.50 for
its work.
Sweeney said this week that he
and his committee will ask local
organizations to contribute the
money, a sum small as compared
to the wartime quotas, instead of
conducting a canvass among bust
ness oncern He thought the en-
tire amount should be raised with
in the next two weeks. Letters of
request are now being written to
the many organizations in Laurel,
with remittances to be made to
his office. Although the first ap-
peal is to the various civic bodies,
individuals may also contribute by
addessing Sweeney by mail or by
calling at his office, 7 First ave-

OF entertaining the service men,

tinuing its policy of providing the

.YULE DECORATION
IN BUSINESS AREA
IS AGAIN PLANNED
Commercial Club To Make
CanvaSS-StOreS Start
ing Yule Displays

Funds for the annual outdoor
Christmas decoration of streets in
Laurel business districts will be
solicited and collected this year
by the Commercial club, Oliver
Void, chairman of a committee ap-
pointed for that purpose, said this
week. As in other years the cost.
per concern will be on a footage
basis.
The decorations, consisting of
green and red lights in strings,
with evergreen trees in tubs at
frequent intervals, will be along
the curb edge of the sidewalks
to bespeak the festive Christmas
spirit. The practice was begun
here several years ago and has
continued each recurring year ex-
cept during the war years.
1t is expected that the installa-
tons will be made near Thanks
They will continue in
place until soon after New Years
day. Many homes in the residen-
tial districts are also decorated
each Christmas, some rather elab-
Orately.
Some Laurel stores are already
lnpacking toys, gift goods and
)ther merchandise appropriate for
Christmas trade, and initial
displays are to be seen. Early holi-
lay buying is also noted. The earl
est ever known here was a few
years ago when Christmas parcels
service men and women over
;eas had to be mailed in October.
Although the buying was extraor-
linaryily early, it did not relieve
he great shopping pressure i'm
nediately before Christmas.
Although buyers are urged every
year to shop early, it invariably
happens that some items that were
plentiful at the beginning are ex-
before Christmas arrives
Christmas this year is only
bout six weeks away. 1t will be
with the following Mon
a holiday also.
