Show Bond Activity Starts Friday With Big Dance Picture Show Scheduled On June 22 as Fund-Raising Event. The official opening of the drive in the Fifth War Loan starts this Friday night at the Delta Open Air hall, with a dance. Tickets have been sold to this affair during dur-ing the week, and a record crowd is expected. The dance will feature fea-ture bond sales and an auction. Next Thursday night the management man-agement of the Crest Theater has turned the show over to the bond committee and a picture show, with a special program between pictures slated. Admission to tthe show house will be a bond. and additional ad-ditional bonds may also be bought at the window. After these two affairs have taken tak-en place the house to house canvass can-vass will begin with individual workers, contacting purchasers at their homes and place of business. They are delaying this canvass until un-til after the dance and show, because be-cause people complained in the past that after they had bought all the bonds they possibly could various affairs were staged that they could take no part in. Oasis is still credited with being the 1 first community in the state to go over the top in the Fifth War Loan drive, and the whole of Rich County second to go over. Those in charge of the drive are somewhat dubious about filling the quota and ask that purchasers buy all they possibly can at an early date so they will know just where they stand in regard to the quota. State Lions Clubs Plan Polio Hospital The Lions Clubs of the State are backing a plan to establish a polio po-lio hospital to be operated in connection con-nection with the University of titan ti-tan Medical School. The ground for the building has been donated for that use, so that the clubs are taking up raising funds for the building. They point out that last year's epidemic of polio was the worst in the history of the State over 400 cases and members of the medical profession are fearful that it may become even worse this winter. Many cases were inadequately inade-quately cared for because of the -crowded conditions in the hospitals hospi-tals and the lack of trained help to treat the patients. F. L. Byron has brought their attention at-tention to the qualities of the water wat-er at Warm Springs, both the heat and the medicinal features, lie suggests that the hospital be located lo-cated there where nature has provided pro-vided such an abundance of facilities. |
