Caldwell Lions
Club To Sponsor
Light Bulb Sales

William D. Semple, serving as
general chairman of the light
bulb" campaign sponsored by the
Caldwell Lions club, wishes to
remind the citizens of the area
that members of the local club
will solicit every home on Mon
day and Tuesday nights, March
% and 20.
The house-to-house drive will
begin at 600 p. m. continuing
until all sections have been
covered in the two nights.
Those of you that need light
bulbs should wait until one of
the above mentioned evenings to
purchase them from the Lions
club member that will be at
your home.
The money raised from this
drive remains entirely in Cald-
well and is used by the club to
promote its sight preservation
program in the purchase of eye
glasses, etc.
The light bulbs you purchase
help to preserve your eyes and
the money from the bulbs goes
to help retain another's vision.
The success of the drive depends
entirely on the members of the
community.
