Local HD Club To
Sponsor Community
Meeting April 26
Will you come to the Indian
Mountain Clubhouse on Friday
night, April 26 at 7:30 p.m.?
Many people have loved ones
buried at Oakland Cemetery. South
west of Gorman and it is to this
group of people and others inter-
ested in civic activities such as
Cemetery Improvement, that a spe-
cial appeal is made at this time.
The home demonstration club
members are sponsoring a com-
munity meeting at tne ciubhouse,
one mile west of the Oakland
Cemetery, for the purpose of pro-
viding an opportunity for patrons
of the Cemetery and others inter-
ested in re-organizing and reviving
the Oakland Cemetery Association,
to come together and to discuss the
needs and plans accordingly. Much
depends on each person taking
time out and coming to the meeting
determined to cooperate in putting
over such a. worthy project. Once
an organization is set up, matters
pertaining to the upkeep and beau-
tification of the cemetery will be
more efficient. Talk the idea, tell
all your friends, write those who
are away, but still have a desire to
keep the cemetery looking attrac-
tive, so that all who have mutual
interest in such a plan may know
about the plan and act in ^response.
The local HD club group are
planning refreshments for the meet-
ing, and every family urged to at-
tend. It is your meeting- You have
a part in such a civic project, and
it is your duty to cooperate whole-
heartedly. and the success of the
project depends on each’ one shar-
ing responsibility.
Letters are one source of reach-
ing some of the patrons of Oakland
Cemetery, so if you know any per-
son, relatives, friend, or neighbor,
write them of the proposed plan
and ask them to cooperate.
Contributions from those patrons
who are far away and cannot come
to the Annual Cemetery Working on
Saturday before the first Sunday in
May, would materially help in pro-
viding the care which a cemetery
always needs. These people should
know about the plan and help
share the satisfaction which comes
from knowing the graves of loved
ones are being cared for.
Mrs. Lee Anglin is president of
the local HD chib and her address
is Route I. Gorman, Texas. Mrs. E.
L Curb, Mrs- W. H. Lay and Mrs.
Bill Tucker are committee members
who are prepared to help spearhead
the community project.
Any of these will try to help
cany out plans and in every other
way possible, to see that the civic
efforts may be a reality in the Oak-
land Cemetery project. Sharing in
such plans could be most satisfying
and lasting.

“It is important that this sftou-id
be the greater campaign, for al-
though mcdici e has overcome some
of childhood’s important crippiers,
accidents are on the increase and,
with our rapidly expanding popu-
ation, the number of children
sripplej at birth increases corres-

‘‘Fortunately in our democratic
way of life each of us can help
ane of these crippled children to
overcome his particular crippling
condition through our own gift of
a very small portion of our money.
Each of us can know with certainty
Crippled Children and Adults and
its 1,655 affiliated local groups in

“Every American will have the
