Jeanne P. (MrS. Tom) Bost-

will never walk again as the re-
suit of injuries sustained in an
automobile accident early Sun
day morning on Rt. A South OF
Chardon.
She was told the extent of her
injuries Tuesday and took the
news very well, according to
Mrs. Henry Knapp, 156 Center
St, Mrs. Bostwick'S sister.
Lakeside Hospital, Cleveland,
reported her in fair" condition
wednesday morning. The hospit-
al gave the same report Mon
day morning.
Sheriff Louis RObuSky, who
found her lying in the snow at
$3.50 am. Sunday, said the car
she was driving had evidently
gone out of control on the Slip
perry highway.
The sheriff said the car had
gone OIL the west Slue OL IIle
road between Coe and Bass
Lake Roads. He said she was
thrown so feet from the car.
Robusky had gone to Bestone
Aviation airport, south of the
scene of Mrs. BostWick's acci-
dent, to investigate reports of a
drunken person in that area,
Failing to find the subject, he
began the trip back to Chardon.
Fearing the reported drunk
may have fallen into the ditch
and would freeze to death, the
sheriff said he drove very slow
ly, shining his spotlight along
the side of the road on the way
back.
When he rounded the bend in
Rt. A at the intersection oi

Need for Blood Donors

and forever dinging away for
blood and more blood? Simply
because there is no substitute
for blood and the only blood
that is working is that which is
in an artery or a vein.
I'VE have one of the small
lest hospitals in the State of
Ohio, and yet we use Red
Cross blood every week. Every
patients that comes into the hos
pital is typed-just in case. One
woman had four babies with
out any complications. A coup
lie of weeks ago when she had
her fifth, she had to have
blood and quickly. Fortunately
the Red Cross truck had just
restocked our blood bank, and
we had plenty of her type, and
she got it promptly.
Another woman had two
babies, she had a sudden pain,
and ten minutes later she was
in shock. A ruptured ectopic
pregnancy, and not only did she
get the blood that we had on
hand, she got four more pints.
The Red Cross center brought it
as far as Eastgate, the sheriff's
car eScourted our messenger,
and the woman was out of bed
two days later. There had to be
blood, human blood available at
the center. Someape had given
each one of those pints. 1t took
time, some inconvenience, but it
saved a life!
you don't have to be rich
to give blood, you don't have to
to poor to get it. Blood is blood,
black or white, young or old,
rich or poor, Protestant or Cath
olic, Jew or Buddhist. The Red
Cross makes no distinction. This
is one service that every COM
munity can support in good
times or bad, and there are
hundreds of people in Geauga
County today, because the Red
Cross was able to give them
blood-your blood-when nothing
else in the world would have
been of any USE"

Christmas Book Buyers Co For The Best Sellers


 But books that do not violate the spirit of this particular holiday sell, too. 4 year ago Kathryn HuIme's '"The Nuns Story'' topped the non-fiction selections, and other numbers in- demand were Bruce Cation and ''Profiles in This Hallowed Ground" by Courage" by John F. Kennedy.
 Over the years the same pattern has been followed: Popular at one season, popular at all
 The most popular book in the 20th century, according to Alice Payiie Hackett's Sixty Years of Best Sellers x would have made a suitable number at any Christmas: Charles Monroe Sheldon's AIn His Steps" Published just 50 years ago, it has sold perhaps eight mill- ion copies.

 The books that sell the best at Christmas time sell the best at all other times, too
 Of course, there are the peren- nial exceptions: Dickens Christ mas Carol" and the Holy Bible, which are especially popular right now.
 But if you watch best-seller lists you'll find they don't change much with the calendar. More books sell in December, but they are more 0f the same; by and large the general buyer makes his choice rather on popularity than on timeliness.
 Out of Tune
 That may mean for instance that some un-Christmassy works sell specially well at Christmas. All last December. for instance, fiction best-seller lists were head ed by Grace Metalious' "Peyton

Old Buck can't point with too much certainty to his ancestory, either.
 Danish legend boasts similar character --- bull who hides most of the year but appears at g holi- day time.
 Old Buck in Replica
 The modern day celebration of Old Christmas here features big oyster roast, a square dance and entertainment at the community house. A canvas and barrel slave replica of Old Buck the bull ap- pears during the evening. Adults distribute gifts for the children and the children vie for a chance to ride Old Buck.
 As misty as the origin of the celebration is the origin of habita- ton on Hatteras island itself. It is believed that it's first inhabitants were crews of 18th Century sailing vessels lost in the Graveyard of the Atlantlc,' as this treacherous. coastline is known. The islands written records date from the middle of the 17O0s.

Mrs. Charles E. Wilson'S
public defense of her husband
last week made a hit with every
husband and politician in the
country, and won her i'm
mortality in the city of Wash
ington.
When the wife of the Secre-
tary of Defense got fed up and
dared to express her indignance
with the President for failing
to support Charlie on the Ma
tional Guard issue, she not
only pleased Charlie, but made
such a hit with the President
himself that he promptly held
out the olive branch with a
grin and invited the wilson's
to share his private plane.
She will go down in the an
nails of Capital history as one
OF the rare, outspoken wives.
Yet not a single politicians
wife will comment on her out
burst. Even the most out
spoken Of them are privately
convinced that similar state
ments on their part would have
brought their husbands wrath
down upon them.
Said one Senator's wife,
after listening to her husband
sing Mrs. Wilson'S praises:
you think it's wonderful for
her to have said it, but if I
had said something like that
you would have wanted me to
keep my mouth shut"

sues and not personalities. We

ing in an important time and
we should speak up where is
sues are involved" stated the
quiet but articulate wife of the
Democratic senator from
Illinois.
Enough on those who talk
how about their quieter sisters?
MRS. WILLIAM KNOW
LAND. handsome wife of the
minority leader of the Sem
ate, thinks there are so many
other factors besides political
articulacy that determine the
helpfulneSs OF a politicians
wife-"Such things as home
making. disposition. tempera-
ment, general interest. She
never makes speeches. but. say
senatorial wives, Helen Know
land is exceptionally smart and
has a lot of influence on Bill.
MRS. STUART SYMING-
TON doesn't talk politics to
the press and never to the pub
lie. IF you don't have the
knack." she said. "it's better
to remain in the background
and not be vocal" But she
reads all of Stu's speeches and
works over them a lot" He
wants her to.
Somewhat surprisingly from
her background perch, the So
cially prominent Eve Wads-
worth Symington says: ITS
vital for the wife to under
stand her husbands work and
keep up with what he is doing,
bills being discussed. etc. Not
only what he is personally
responsible for or interested in
but the whole Government.
It's far more helpful to him II
he has somebody to talk to-"
It's practically impossible
for her to make a speech. Once
she had to explain Stuart's
absence when he was due at
two places at the same time.
Luckily, a thunderstorm burst
at that moment so / don't
think anyone heard me-" she
chuckled.
MRS. GEORGE HUM
PHREY thinks. If you are in
an elective Office. it's one thing;
if it's an appointive Office. it's
another" Since her husband
holds an appointive post. she
obviously thinks this limits her
in expressing her own opinion.
