Dear Sir, $50 tt...f
wonder if you could print my
letter. -..... .....-.... -..-..
Right now I am very put out,
mad you might say. I've been try
ing to get people to come to our
blood bank on Monday the 17th.
Some sof the excuses are down
right maddening. f
realize there is a lot of flu and
colds going around. People have
had operations and babies born.
They can not give. A lot of people
can't because of Doctors orders. -
A lot of you are against it be-
cause the Red Cross handles it.
Well some one has to do the job.
A lot of people give you the an
swer a friend, or Aunt Mary or
Uncle John had to buy blood.
Why? Because not enough people
will come into the Bank.
There would be no shortage or
selling of blood if people would
give an hour of their time.
You get the answer, if some one
in the family was sick or in a
wreck they would give for that.
Those people are about ten years
behind times. A lot Of people could
and have died waiting for blood.
Maybe after having three or four
people come in only one type mat
ched. A person can die in a short
time waiting on some one with
their type blood.
The fifth commandment says:
Thou shalt not kill" That pint of
blood you give may save a life.
Maybe your own later because you
made blood free to some one else.
You get a free physical before
giving blood. A trip to the Doctor
would cost you three to five dol
lars for the same.
II you are unable to give blood,
you are told.
Well I've written it down and
got If off my chest but nothing can
be done unless you the public do 1t.
Hoping to see some of you at the
Blood Bank.

The Editorial Viewpoint
ARE WE TALKING BUSINESS TO DEATH7

The present business recession the talked
economic problem this country has had in 20 We wonder
if business isn't being talked to death.
The Republicans have been branded bunch OF
erdowel and the Democrats have been called Of
dishonest opPortun and looks though Washington
in the mood TO lower in the face OF rising prices Our
knowledge the subject reveals that this has
happened before. Al the time IL looks like and
bigger strikes lay ahead and for the usual higher pay
Frankly we're ittle confused
But do feel that if both sides would just leave things
alone maybe we'd out Of this thing pretty quickly Oddly
enough he cries being heard contradictory the kne Of
doom being heard above the shouts Of imminent upsne
Both opinions contribute greatly TO general disbelief and feel
ing of anxiety
While recognize that faIoff of business is real
also think that the bsaee of conflicting publicity has done
TO plant doubt in mems minds than is probably

Specialist Says
Now Is Time For
Spring Lawn Care

The Madison County Extension
Office reports that now is the time
to start your spring work for the
development of a good lawn.
According to Robert NJ. Salter
of the Ohio Agriculture Expert
ment Station at Wooster, Ohio,
this is perhaps the best time of
the year to work on your yard to
get a good grass stand. Although
the weather is still somewhat
harsh, 1t is good time to get your
lawn lined, fertilized, or started
in case you are seeding a new
lawn. For a new lawn, it is ad-
visable to use 2 or 3 pounds of
seed per 1000 square foot area,
this may seem to be very heavy,
but when seeded think, it will help
to smother out the weeds which
will be coming into the lawn.
To get a good even stand, re-
quires great care. The work is
best done on quiet day, prefer
ably in the morning, when there
is little or. no wind. The seed can
be sown either by hand or by a
special seeder. It is advisable to
sow one-half of the seed in one di-
rection and the other one-half at
right angles to get proper spac-
ing. The seeds should be covered
to a depth of one eighth to one
fourth inch and the ground rolled
lightly in order to pack the soil
firmly. A piece of cloth tackled to
a smoothing board will do the Job
of covering the seed.
To keep lawn in good condi-
ton, requires continued care and
attention. To keep the grass grow
ing vigorously, it should be regu-
larly and Systematically fertilized,
using a high grade mixed fertiliz-

Burglars Making
Taxpayers Load
Heavier In Ohio

COLUMBUS Especially - Burg
larry victims are not the only ones
that take it on the chin every time
those lowly looting night crawlers
go on their invasions.
The taxpayers in general pay a
toll every time one of those alleg-
ed artists is brought to justice ac--
cording to State Auditor James A.
Rhodes.
There's an old maxim that crime
doesn't pay. But try to convince
members of the burglary profes-
sion. They just keep on preying on
the public until they eventually
wind up behind bars. 81
Auditor Rhodes shelled out $685.
893.16 in state funds this past
month to reimburse 81 of the 8e
counties for criminal court costs
plus transportation expenses in
volved in delivering convicts to the
Ohio State Penitentiary.
The portion of this sum that was
spent to convict burglars amounted
to S9288. SO, more than one third of
the total payment. This money in
volved dol cases against 366 per-
sons who were convicted of various
crimes. Burglary led the procession
with 200 being convicted.
Fraud was the second most pop
ular crime-at least as far as get
ting caught and convicted was con-
cerned. Sixty perpetrators of fraud
were sentenced to the pen at cost
to the state of $27O0.55 according
to Rhodes.
For the six months prior to last
month the state auditors office
paid out state funds in the sum OF
S126, ,714.33 in criminal court costs
on 1892 cases. Burglary was way
out in front with 947 at cost of
8,445.47.

Dear Reader:
AS one who is always in
terested in finding ways and
means to advance the cause
of local business, 1t has oc-
CURED to me that many busi-
ness people are not using the
simplest and most expedient
way to make sales name
ly, by ASKING people to
buy things!
Whether by personal con-
tact or through advertising,
the art Of salesnanship is
based on asking someone to
buy something. If this were
not true, we wouldn't need
statesmen or sales people,
would we? And isn't it per-
fectly true that a newspaper
ad places the product before
the buying public and asks,
How about buying this?"
Of course, when / say that
people should be asked to
buy, / don't mean people
who can't afford it but peo-
pie who may need it and
want it if they know where
to buy it. In my mind this
simple question is actually
what advertising is really
made of - except that it is
done in a dignified and eye
catching manner. BY this ]
don't mean a "gimrnick" or a
"come-on" people are pref
