Many Reasons Exist Why You
Should be Blood Donor Wednesday

, for it ahead of time. You can give
that blood NOW. And after you've
done your part, the Red Cross
does its part.
How Blood is Handled
The blood you've given is TAX
en- to Columbus, where, in eX-
pensive processes, it is tested,
typed, cross-checked, and the
ACD preservative solution added.
Then it is Immediately made
available to doctors and hospit-
ais for the anxious emergency
calls that come in daily. You may
rest assured that when your life
or the lives of your loved ones
hang in balance for the need of
blood or its products, that blood
will be available, at no charge.
Blood freely given by you is free
ly given again.
Why be a blood donor? Blood
is almost the only known com
modify that can neither be manu-
factured nor duplicated. So, be-
fore its mysterious healing pow
ers can be put to use in sick and
ailing bodies, it first must be
collected. In April, the Red Cross
collected l01 pints of blood from
volunteer donors in Marysville,
and since that time, MORE than
10l pints have been given to I'm
ion CountianS in various sur
rounding hospitals. The supply
must constantly be repleniShed,
and it can only be done by your
gift of blood and mine. Because
there is only one source of blood,
and that is the human vein.
so More Needed
Anyone who is between the
ages of 18 and go and in good
health may donate, and it only
takes about an hour to do it. Fifty
more donors are needed for to-
morrow's visit of the Bloodmo-
bile.
Why be blood donor? You are
facing that future emergency,
preparing for it ahead of time,
saving life as surely as if you
rescued a drowning person.
Appointments will be sched-
uled for Wednesday, July 9Th,
from 10 to 4. You may call 259l
or 3941, or you may register at
Galloway's, Otte's, Sawyer'S or
the Light Company. This is just
about the ONLY way you can
MAKE AN APPOINTMENT TO
SAVE A LIFE!
Up to four hours before your
appointment you may eat a reg
ular meal. From four hours be-
fore on, fats and eggs should be
avoided. AS usual, satisfying
axray of sandwiches and hot or
cold drinks will be readied by the
Lutheran women for your con-
sumption Immediately after do
mating.

Federal School Aid Would Cost
County More Than 1t Would Receive

yields the S15,629,OOO as the por-
tion to be paid by Ohio taxpayers.
The amount to be returned to
the state of Ohio under provisions
of the bill is determined by the
formula incorporated therein.
In determining the share of the
cost to be borne by each county,
the proportion of the total federal
taxes paid by each of the eighty
eight Ohio counties to the total
for the state was applied.
The amount to be returned to
each county is based on the per-
centage of the population of Ohio,
and as it is broken down in each
county as of Jan. l, l949.

Union County would pay S25,-
006 toward federal subsidy for
education, yet schools in this
county would receive only S19,-
984 back from the program, under
terms of the proposed Federal
Education Finance Act of 1949"
now before Congress. The figures
were released recently by the
Ohio Chamber of Commerce.
Ohio taxpayers, the Chamber
declared, would pay in twice as
much as they got back for Ohio
schools if congress approves a
proposed $300,000,0OO school aid
program.

The Chamber claimed Ohio
would send Sl5,629,O0O to Wash
ington and receive $7,320,OOO.
Herschel c. Atkinson, Ohio
Chamber vice president, said,
SOnce this unwise principle of
federal funds for local education
is established, the subsidy will be
increased under pressure into bill
lions by future congresses"
The S15,629,000 payment, the
Chamber declares, is based on the
average of the total federal taxes
paid by Ohio taxpayers-approxi-
mately 5.85 per cent of the total.

Legion S July 4th
Celebration Here
Proves Success
Heat Cuts Attendance
In Afternoon. But
Night Crowd Sets Record

American Legion's Fourth of
July celebration at the Fair
grounds Monday was a financial
success according to Herb Ball
lett, co-chairman of the general
committee. Although the after
noon program was almost COM
lplete failure the tremendous
crowd on the grounds in the eve
ming more than made up for it.
The unusually hot weather in
the afternoon cut down the vol
umn of the crowd considerably,
Willie Fischer and his Log jam
mers performed before a very
small audience although those in
attendance were well pleased
with the show.
Mr.. Balliett estimates that the
number of cars on the fairgrounds
Monday night was equal to the
largest amount there at any time
in the past. The grandstand and
midway were jammed all eve
ming and an estimated 1900 per-
sons witnessed the eight amateur
boxing matches and the fire
works.
Several of the fights were of
very high quality and equal to
those seen in Springfield, Dayton,
or any larger city. In the first
fight Henderson, from Spring
field, won over Jones by knock
out in the first round. In the
second scrap Dick James, of Mar
ion, won over Reed, of Spring
field, in the 1875 pound class by
TKO in the third round.
The third fight saw Moss de-
Pision Red Curren, of Marion, in
the lat pound class. In the fourth
fight Caudill took three round
decision over crider in one of the
better fights of the evening. These
boys were from Springfield and
Dayton.
The Moore Daniel fight match,
ed two boys who had gone to
Chicago to the national finals
last Spring, Moore took a close
decision in very good fight
A middleweight tussle brought
together two Springfield boys,
Mackard and Richardson. They
put on perhaps the best show of
the evening as the veterans
Mackard had to stand Richardson
off in the last round to take a de-
cision.
Bob Patterson, of Marysville,
lost a first round TKO to Dick
Sekinger, of Marion, when the
long armed Marion boy tagged
him hard midway in the first
round and had him on the ropes
the rest of the way. John Cotton,
a heavy weight and Marysville's
other representative lost a sec
ond round TKO to George Baker,
Jr. of Springfield.
Baker lost the first round on a
foul but was too ringwise for the
.Marysville boy and the referee
stopped the action in the second
frame. Loren Grimes, of Marys-
vile, holds a decision over Baker
in the Golden Gloves tournament
at Springfield.

Windstorm Hits
Southern Section
Root Blown from Call
. Store in Milford

Strong winds caused consider
able damage in Milford Center
and vicinity Thursday afternoon
as they tore branches from trees
and ripped more than half of the
roof off Calls Hardware. Phone
and electric service was also
temporarily disrupted in that
area.
Most of the streets, including
Route SO passing through the
town were Uttered with debris
and branches and many large
limbs were broken from trees.
The metal roof on the Call
Hardware building was ripped
off allowing water TO pour freely
into the store.
1T rained as much inside as it
did out in the open" Charles Call,
owner of the hardware, comment
ed after it was all over The store
is divided into two sections and
one section was completely
drenched.
Damage $1,000
Almost all the metal products
in the room were ruSted and
everything else that could be
damaged by water was soaked.
Damage was estimated at $1,000
by Paul j. Shea, Milford insur-
ance agent.
The amount of rain that fell in
to the building was indicated by
the fact that all the dishes and
glassware on display were brim
full of water.
The United Telephone Co. re-
ports that approximately 20 poles
were broken off by the wind and
about rs phones were out of op-
Grafton for a short time. Almost
all of this damage was scattered
throughout the Milford area and
was not concentrated in any one
locality.
Dayton Power g. Light Co. ser
vice was slightly disrupted in the
southern part of the county due
to limbs falling on wires. Within
an hour all service was restored
by the company linemen.
Many Electric Lines Out
Between 400 and 500 farms
relying on service from the Union
Rural Electric Coop were with
out service for about four hours
Thursday as wind, branches, and
lightning played havoc with the
lines in the southern part of the
county. Iron cross bars and in
sulators were damaged by light
ming and on the main line several
lines were downed by the wind.
Local insurance men reported
13 claims resulting from wind and
storm damage, with the majority
OF them being very small.

THE OLD FIREPLACE"

Seventy three years ago today, on
the seventeenth day of May,
To the world a new life was given, by
a mother who is now in Heaven.
The mother folded the babe to her breast
while surrounded by all the rest,
There sat the father so full of grace,
uttering thanks, at the old fireplace.
The child was kept in perfect ease, while
held upon its mothers knees,
Glad tidings and love abound, while
other children played around.
Kindness and cheer, and love to spare,
while the child was kept in mothers care
And the father with a smiling face,
kept the fire burning in the old fireplace.
But time passed on, another day,
father and mother have passed away,
And this child says she's getting old,
with silver threads among the gold,
Is shining upon her brow today,
as life is fading fast away.
Yet, she wears a smiling face,
as she sits at home, by the old fireplace.
Trials and troubles she tries not to heed,
at her hands she has lots to read.
But there's one thing best of all,
mothers picture upon the wall.
It grieves her not with hair SO gray,
she's longing to meet mother some sweet day -
She enjoys life, so full of grace
sitting around the old fireplace.
Oh, what a great pleasure, these odds and ends,
of great treasures, given by many friends.
This child is Nellie Boyd, with a smiling face,
still sitting around the old fireplace.
Written by her cousin, John H. Beard, Ruston, Louisiana, thi

BEAUTY HINTS
BY NINA TEMPLE
BEAUTY OF FIGURE


Most women of thirty have lost
the give and play and spring at
the waistline. They seem to be
solid there. The bones seem ossi-
fed, merged together in one solid
piece, To remedy this, try exer-
cises. Simple at first. just stretch
ing like cat, and swinging
around and bending. Do this
gently, and then less gently, until
you have eased the bones from
their static state. Soon you will
notice that youth has returned to
YOUR figure and you will have re-
established the lovely swing of
your youthful form. Selah!
A GLASS OF WATER
It is said that by drinking a
glass Of water every day we can
live hundreds. Also, that one
glass of water daily will make the
skin clear and beautiful. will
make the eyesight better, as the

In short, glass of water each
day is not emily a beauty treat
ment but bodily neeessity-a

only that which is good, and do
likewise, always trying to be re-
