The Annual Red Cross Fund
Drive will get underway at a kick-
off breakfast in the education
building of the Bandera Methodist
Church on Monday morning March
2, 1964, at 10 o’clock.
Mrs. John T. Noah is chairman
of the drive and her co-chairman
is Mrs. G. M. Merritt.
The entire structure and op-
eration of the American Red
Cross depends for its success upon
the volunteer. The National
Chairman is a volunteer, gnd every
chapter is governed by a volun-
teer chairman and volunteer board
members. Volunteers serve on
chapter service committees and
will be found working in every
serivee program. They are the
people who teach home nursing,
first aid ,and water safety courses,
conduct “Swim and Stay Fit” pro-
grams, and man shelters and con-
duct feeding operations in dis-
asters thus carrying Red Cross
programs into the community.
Then there is the ever important
blood program, and overseas pro-
grams to service men and their
families.
There is also a program for
veterans, small craft services and
services to help people in many
forms of disaster and distress.
Most important is the fund
raising volunteer.

munists.
This will be an opportunity for
Bandera to see and hear of dan-
gerous issues before us, of the
impossibility of coexistence with
• communism or of trusting the
soviet system.
The service starts at. 7:30 p.m
and is free to the public. A plate j
offering will be received giving
opportunity to those who wish to
contribute to the work of Mr.,

to him.

“The oldest and proudest name
in the .circus world," the Sella
Bros, had their first circus in
1872 and- t-be name lives on even
now. 90 years have passed, hun-
dreds of circuses have ebme and
gone, but the management of
Sells Bros, long ago discovered
traditional tented circus.
With over 30 feature acts in all
3 rings, Sells Bros. 3 ring Cirrus
brings a full 5)0 minutes of urenic
and aerial entertainment for all
to see. They present in rapid suc-
cession, jugglers, tumblers, clowns,
acrobats, death defying Horialista.l ” j ^ t 1|)(
wire-walking wonders, and u host
of trained animal arts including
dogs, ponies, monkeys, ehimpan
zees, bears, high school horses,
hare back riders and tons upon
tons of performing ylPfiliioit*;
The management thi.s year has
announced an all new tow price
policy made possible by a much
larger tent and many more seats
which by accomodating more pa-
trons enables them to reduce the
prices to less than has been charg-
ed by any major circus in over
twenty years. They also pride
themselves on the fiat that no
games of chain e or gambling
games arc carried with this show,
entire circus is good,
clean entertainment for the entire
family.
