r. NOVEMBER 14, 1951
Look at the purpose: Proceeds
used to fight tuberculosis, most le-
thal killer among all infectious
diseases.
Look at the need: TB kills 40,000
persons a year, 100 a day. It robs
people of the prime of life, putting
wage earners and homemakers out
of action when they are needed
most.
Look at the record: Progress
has been made. The TB death rate
has been cut down 85% since
1900, due to the accomplishments
of the TB associations which help
to discover hometown TB victims,
support rehabilitation programs,
and teach people how TB can be
prevented and how to avoid spread-
ing it to their family, friends, and
neighbors. They also help support
valuable medical research.
Look at how the funds are used:
The work of the TB associations
is supported by Christmas Seal
Sales. Eighty-two per cent of all
Christmas Seal proceeds remain
right here in Bosque County to
help right here at home. Twelve
per cent of the funds is forwarded
to the state accociation; six per cent
is sent to the National Tuberculosis
Association, which provides advice
and consultation to state and local
associations and makes grants for
medical research.
In the case of the Christmas Seal
Sale, we need only to look and we
will give.
Mr. and Mrs. Dick Torrence re-
ceived word last week that their
daughter, Marilyn, had passed the
State Board examination for Oral
Hygienist. This examination, held
in Dallas, was the first of its kind
ever held in Texas.

tN a war-wracked, undernourished and embittered world,
X no finer expression of Christian compassion and volun-
tary statesmanship can be found than that exemplified by
the Christian Rural Overseas Program.
Through CROP, America’s farm families have shared the
abundance of their harvest for four successive years. The
impressing total of foodstuffs which was collected for des-
titute despairing people the world round in this manner of
Christian sharing has exceeded $15 million.
CROP’S 1951 motto, emblazoned on the organization’s na-
tional poster, is “Building Peace and Friendship” and indeed
the program itself, sponsored by Catholic Rural Life, Church
World Service and Lutheran World Relief, embodies a Chris-
tian answer to Cain’s question: “Am I my brother’s keeper?”
This year, while Americans tend their peaceful pursuits
in their own country, while harvests of record proportions
are anticipated, there are people elsewhere on this globe who
despair and starve because their earth cannot yield the
wherewithal for survival; who flee the scourge of warfare
which destroys their crops. They are the refugees of West-
ern Europe and the Near East. The peasants in Yugoslavia
and India, and the millions who have had to forsake homes
and livelihood because of warfare in Korea.
To share with these people is a basic Christian duty. In the
light of world events, this sharing assumes an even deeper
meaning, for it means “Building Peace and Friendship."
Bosque County contributions to CROP are largely being made
through the various church organizations. Several plan to turn their
Thanksgiving offerings over to this worthy purpose. Cranfills Gap citi-
zens solicited from all the families in their school district; the Womack
community has made a wide solicitation. Should the solicitors miss you
and you wish to make a contribution, turn it over to either Rev. E. A.
Beaver, county CROP chairman, or Hans Dahl, county treasurer.

punish you brutally! Their ctamps and
griping disrupt normal bowel action,
make you feel in need of repeated dosing.

get gentlt but sun relief. Take Dr. Cald-
well's Senna Laxative contained in Syrup
Pepsin. It's all-vtgetabU. No salts, no harsh
drugs. Dr. Caldwell’s contains an extract
of Senna, oldest and one of the fin«N
natural laxatives known to medicine.
Dr. Caldwell’s Senna Laxative tastes
good, acts mildly, brings thorough relief
comfortably. Helps you get regular, ends
chronic dosing. Even relieves stomach
sourness that constipation often brings.

Linda Hulings; ribbons won by the
Chapter during the year; a year-

and minutes of the club; Chapter
scrapbook; and a display of color
pictures taken during the past sum-
mer.

Cleanliness counts most
To keep her kitchen utensils mirror-bright and her kilch'eit
walls spotless is every homemaker's goal. Ninety-six out
of 100 homemakers in ihis area cook with a Gas range.
It is no secret that many of them choose Gas on the basil
of cleanliness alone.
i.
CLEAN) Grease-laden steam
stays inside the pan with "water-
less" Gas cooking. Only Gas
ranges give the control so neces-
sary for this clean cooking.
Why? tecause there are doxens
of heats to cook with—not just
a few.
CLEAN) Today's automatic Gas
range burners give pure stain-
less heat aver the crystal-dean,
true blue flame. Pans stay mirror-
bright without scouring. No
messy, smoky "burnlng-ott" when
spillovers occur.
CLEANI Only Gas ranges broil
with the door tightly closed.
No grease-laden vapore escape.
Instead, locked-in vapors rise—
right Into tha live gas flame,
which consumes them. Only
flame broiling is smokeless, so
