Council Says “No” To Firenien Request In a Special Meeting held Tuesday night, the Washington Town Council decided against the leasing or selling of the present firehouse to the firemen, as requested by a committee of firemen in the March council' meeting. In order to either sell oor lease the building, the council reported,1 it would have to be agreed upon that they (representing the town) had no further use for the building. Then a 3/4 vote (5) must approve either the selling or leasing. Various other legal j transactions would have to be entered into. To exemplify, in leasing, following the agreement that there was no further use they Had for the building, and an affirmative 3/4 vote, they would file a bill with the Circuit Court Judge. Then if he gave them permission to continue, the council would advertise for bids on the lease and would have to accept the highest bid offered. . It seemed the sentiment of the •4 council, ladies present, Mrs. T. M. Johnston, Mrs. J. W. Critzer, Mrs. Milton Hawkins and Miss Ruby Jenkins, and the Mayor, Mrs. George Davis, that the council could not conscientiously say 1 that they had no further use far the boilding, and therefore further consideration would be useless.

In almost every tomer of the earth, the Red Croat is recofnized as a symbol of the good neighbor. It. may represent you—through your membershipr-in helping other people in time of trouble. Or it may represent warm-hearted people, whom you do not know, rallying to your aid in an emergency. There was a time in our early history when people counted on direct help from their neighbors or dose relatives to see them through periods of misfortune. Our way of fife stems largely from that personal, across-the-fence sharing of adversity. Today life is more complex. Many of us live in the impersonal atmosphere of great cities.' Much of our population shifts back and forth across the country, hardly pausing to put down neighborly roots. The protective unity of families is weakened as individual member* scatter from die hpmt community. But people have not changed. Ir time of trouble, they need as su ranee that they are not alone To help provide this assurance millions of Americans turn to theii Red Crocs. Because they Join anc serve, they are able to extend a friendly hand to those who most need help, i We see that help in the million! of pints of blood freely giver through Red Cross for those wh< would die without it. We see ii when a New England fishermar who lost his boat in a hurreiane ii given another so he can earn a living for his family.
