proven highly favorable, says Sam-

The brighter dress has been add-
ed in the way of numerous strings
of varied colored lights swung
above all sides of Decatur's square,
with the centrat point the top of
the Wise County court house.
The Christmas season theme is
continued with the life - sized nat-
ivity scene found on the north side
of the court house lawn. Still add-
ing to the spirit of the holiday are
the recording of Christmas carols
being played over a loud speaker
from the square.
The bonus offer given by Decatur
merchants affords each customer ,
during thesholiday season shopping

Dear Kim:
You are right and Skip to wrong.
If a person loves someone it is
obvious that he would not want
her to do something which would
cause her to feel degraded un-
happy and miserable. So, I think
you and Skip had better examine
his "love" for you a little more
closely. - ~
You see, real love is a much
. deeper emotion than just physical
intimacy. It to tenderness. a feeling
of protectiveness, unselfishness, un-
derstanding and being more con-
' corned about another's welfare
and happiness than you are your
own The only advice I can give
you to to keep right on having the
courage of your convictions—with,

DECATUR —' Decatur's annual
Salvation Army fund drive held
the past week has been tabbed
highly successful by Marvin Stone,
co - chairman of the drive with
Charles Branson.
Though tabulations were not
complete, Stone reported having
already counted $650 with only
three fourths of the drive being
accounted for The co - chairman
said that by the way contributions
came in and are still coming in
by mail the drive should total an
estimated $1,000.
“We feel the fund raising was
very successful and our heartfelt
thanks goes out to an donors to
the Decatur area," Stone said Fri-
day.
The drive was spurred, when
District Judge W. A. Hughes, who
was named to head the 1157 United
Fund campaign, announced that
due to lack of county - wide inter-
est. this year's UF drive would be
called off. The funds from UF
would have been divided betwen
the Salvation Army, boy and girl
scouts, Red Cross and the USO.
