.Raymond's Visit
Recalls Memories

Visiting Mr.. John Williams of
Julia Street over the weekend after
an absence of many years is Mr..
Michael Thomas Raymond, fami-
liarly known as DR.. Raymond.
Mr.. Raymond, the father of Ma
garet Raymond of Tampa, Florida,
and the late Alfred Raymond, may
not be remembered by the younger
set, but to the children on their
way to Douglass School about fif-
teen years ago, he was quite a
character. You may recall hat he
operated a printing press on Ange-
la Street near Whitehead and often
functioned as dentist.
Children found quite bit of
pleasure in peeping in through the
open door much to the annoyance
of DR.. Raymond.
! know that many of you viii be
quite surprised to see him and that
you have often wondered whether
or not he was still among the
living. Wen, he is very much alive
and as amusing as ever.

History OF yFw;
American Legion

Walter R. Mickens Post No.
6021, v. F. w. obtained its charter
on March 3, 1916 with the first
commander being Alphonso Dean.
The Post was named after Walter
r. Mickens, who was killed in
action in World War II.
William Weech Post No. 1863,
America Legion, obtained its char
ter on June q, 1916 with the first
commander being Earl McGee.
The Post was named after William
Weech who was Veteran of World
War l.
Later on in 1916, the two Posts
together secured a five year lease
on the Dixie Hall building on White
head Street, which had been pre-
viously used as a USO for Colored
servicemen in Key West. The two
Posts then proceeded to operate
clubhouse in this building for
members and their guests.
The two organizations like any
other organization did not succeed
without a struggle. There were
times when less determined young
men would have been discouraged.
But, under capable leadership, they
carried on.
In 1851, the Posts acquired a
tract of land situated on Emma
Street next to the Lincoln Thea
ter, for the purpose of erecting
a future Post Home. On August
2, 1851, the ground was broken
and construction of the building
started. Most of the work was done
by the membership. Carpenters,
bricklayers, plumbers. electricians
men of all occupations pitched in
to do their part.
However, all of this could not
have been accomplished by the
ship alone. If it were not for con-
tributions by non-members, the
patronage of the public in our
business and other worthwhile help
along the way, we could not have
had this magnificent building.

Christmas
Message

Even though this message is a
little late, you may save it as a
guide for all your Christmas Civ
ing in the future.
At this time of the year, most
of US are baffled and bewildered.
We are wondering just what we
may give, to whom must we give,
and will we received a gift of
equal value in return.
My, dear friends, have you ever
stopped to consider that such an
attitude destroys the real spirit of
Christmas?
Give as Jesus gave. Give your
self; you viii find much joy in it.
Think of the thousands of un-
fortunate people who have no
material things to give, who are
destitute, living under most ad-
verse conditions, deprived of shell
ter, food, and clothing. Can we not
give to these? Can we not give
them a "Care'' package?
To whom can we give? Think of
the stricken, thousands of polio,
tuberculosis, heart, and many
other victims. Can we not contri-
butte to these funds so that others
may find a little hope, a little
happiness?
While we are thinking Of giving
gifts in order to receive a return,
let us think of the thousands of
boys and girls who are wondering
whether or not Santa will come to
Shanty town. It would be nice,
Don't you think?) to send him
through our gifts.
Yes, Christmas is a time for
giving. But let us give gift that
viii do the greatest good, a gift
from the heart.
