And Where Were You On Sunday, November 2Oth.?

"The time and trouble involv- ed are nothing," the physician stated. Tt doesn't take longer than five minutes time to run through the line, the way we have it set up. We take just sample of blood-we're not ask ing for. donors. And it doesn't hurt anyone.
 Too, aperson should remem- Der that even if he isn't interest ed in anyone else's life this pro- gram may be the means of sav- ing his own life some day. An emergency may come up where his life will depend on our hav- ing this information in a matter of minutes. Sometimes just a few minutes of time makes the difference between life and death, when blood is needed"
 In order to make Valley-wide participation possible in this pro- ject, Dr. Bailey plans to send equipment and personnel to Wa silla on. Sunday. Between the hours of and p. m. on Nov. 27, residents of that area may have their blood typed at Com munity Hall.
 Remember" Dr. Bailey con- cluded his appeal, 'This program is for your protection, in case you are hurt or need a transfus- ion. These tests will be used to help you, when you need that help"

'49 Chest Drive Is Sabotaged By ListIess Canvass

A poor job of canvassing on the part of some Community Chest solicitors has begged down the 1949 campaign, according to Lee Ray, secretary of the Chest Board. With the 1949 drive scheduled to end on Nov. 20, MT. Ray said that 10 solicitors still were unreported on Nov. P.
 Since'the full report is lacking, secretary Ray said it would be necessary to extend drive dates to Nov. 30. He said he was posi- tive the added week would give solicitors the time they need to complete canvassing in assigned districts.
 To date, only $1,6OO has been collected in the current cam paign, yet in many instances in- dividual contributions were markedly higher than in past years.
 The announcement was re- peated that either MT. Ray or Mrs. Dorothy Saxton would ac- cept drive contributions from anyone desiring to give, who has not been reached by g solicitor.

There were 300 Valley resi- dents who missed an opportunity to help save a life last Sunday. They were the 300 persons who failed to report at the Gymnas- ium for the bloodtyping pro- gram being conducted by Dr. C. C. Bailey under the sponsorship of the Kiwanis Club.
 However the 300 absentees are to get another chance this Sun day-an opportunity that doesn't usually repeat itself when lives are involved.
 Dr. Bailey originally had scheduled the blood-typing pro- gram through appointments in alphabetical order. Next Sun day, Nov. 27, and the last day of the typing program, he's an- nounced he's throwing the alpha bet out and running a test on all corners. It means that instead of the planned 500 tests for Sunday, Dr. Bailey and his helpers must run 700, if the program is to be completed on schedule.
 Everyone between the ages of Is and 55 is urged to make every effort to report at the Gymnas- ium next Sunday, sometime be- tween the hours of g a. m. and noon, or 1 to p. m. The 1000 samples are absolutely necessary for cross-indexing needed for successful file.

farmer and cooperator with the
jackson County soil conservation
program, gave an interesting re-

his soil and water and produce
better grazing and more income

After putting a farm plan into
effect whereby he has eight acres

Dutch Glover, five acres of bahia

S4O0 on his dairy herd, according
to the report.
