are a trio who have one thing il,
ccmmon-all were former gospel
singers before they started coming
the big money in the pop and rock

Sharing the same spotlight as
stars of Irving FIELDS touring show

singing some religious tunes back
stage and it sounded so good that
If they can get permission from
their respective record firms, they
want to turn out an album of their
favorite gospel songs as a trio.

year with "You Send Me" after
leaving the Soul Stirrers gospel
group was highly regarded and
was $500 weekly paycheck earn
er, a top figure for the church cir
cult. Within six months he's earn
ed 100000 and by the end of the

"And not so long ago I'm
thinking about Democratic 1851,
during my last year in the Senate
- before the Republicans took
over and started meddling with the
Cost of Living. Today, every house
wife knows that food, clothing,
even medical care, are highest in
history.
Right there is the basic differ
ence between the two parties: to
Democrats, the family'S welfare
comes first. When the housewife is
able to manage within her budget,
times are good and we wont slump
into "receSSionS" like the one we're

HOSPITAL SEEKS CITY TAX SUPPORT

Palmer's hospital owed $19,616 at the end of 1857, according to financial report approved by the Hospital Association board of directors at their regular meeting last Friday evening. This is an improvement of some $6,000 over 1856 when $25,587 was owed at the years end.
 The hospital operated through out 1857 only because of the con- tinued generosity of Palmer's businesses and Outside suppliers who advanced credit at times ex- ceeding S30,000, board members pointed out.
 Reduction in the hospitals in- debtedness was chiefly due to the donation of $5,00o by the Matan- uska Valley Farmers Cooperat- Ing Association, together with other community donations of $8,518.
 A $3,000 grant from the Board of National Missions of the Pres byterian Church in the U.S.A. was largely expended, as in fea- mer years, on insurance of the National Missions mortgage in- terest in the building. Although
