Cancer Society
Services Available
THIS ‘N’ THAT
By Ruby Robertson
The American Cancer
Society in Archer Unit
announced today that it has a
variety of services available
to cancer patients without
charge. "Many people are
unaware of all the services
we can provide right here in
this town," said the
Service / Rehabilitation
Chairman, Mrs. Inez Bratt,
"and all that is required in
most cases is written
permission from the pa-
tient’s physician.
Loan equipment, such as
hospital beds, wheelchairs,
commode chairs, and walk-
ers are available as well as
expendable items including
dressings, hospital gowns,
bed pans, pillows, and other
items.
These are all in addition to
basic information and refer-
ral services. Also, there are
several rehabilitation pro-
grams including Reach To
Recovery for mastectomees,
esophageal speech lessons
for laryngectomees, ostomy
rehabilitation, and related
patient and family support
programs.
The ACS funds millions of
dollars for cancer research,
but is also a community
based organization providing
many local services. These
patient services, as well as
educational materials of all
types, are just a few of the
ways ACS helps. Last year,
an estimated SI,803 worth of
services to patients was
utilized in Archer County,
but even more could be done
if more patients were
referred to ACS.
Anyone needing more
information on these services
may call Mrs. Bratt at
574-4119.
Holliday PTA Hosts
Reception For Teachers
Holliday Parent-Teacher
Association hosted an infor-
mal “Meet The Teachers"
reception, Monday evening
at the school.
The evening program was
presented by the kindergar-
ten class taught by Mrs.
Mary Ellen Elliott. PTA
president Linda Dodson and
members of the executive
committee welcomed the
teachers and parents.
The Holliday PTA unit now
has 285 members following a
membership drive. Five
classes were awarded parties
for enrolling 100% of their
parents in PTA. The
refreshments were given by
George Cowan and Food-
world.

treasures in our own back
yard while seeking greener
pastures over the Horizon.
This is especially true of
vacationers who think a
vacation includes much
traveling.
A nearby local site for
mini-vatationers is the Wich-
ita Mountains, just across
the raging Red River. In
addition to the usual
campsites, buffalo, long-
horns and other wildlife,
there are conducted tours at
certain times of the year.
Since the 1500 square mile
area covered by the
mountains could take months
to explore, a short drive
through the Wildlife Refuge
and a visit to The Holy City of
The Wichita* will fill a very
pleasant day.
For a few brief hours
recently, we were in the Holy
City and recalled the days of
the Depression when work
was begun on the city by the
Civilian Conservation Corps.
Workers using native mater-
ials and much hand labor
built the site after Rev.
Wallock envisioned a replica
of Jerusalem in the ampi-
theater at the foot of Mt.
Rooseve.i. He presented his
first performance of the
Easter pageant in 1926 at the
nearby resort town of
Medicine Park, and now

Electricity is produced—or
‘made’—at a power plant.
Most power plants take
energy from fuel by burn-
ing it. This energy boils
water, making steam. The
steam turns a turbine
which turns a generator,
and the generator makes
electricity.

portray the last earthly days
of Jesus Oirist. In 1948 a full
length movie, in color,
entitled Prince of Peace, was
made on the site of the Holy
City.
The minister's last wish was
fulfilled 27 years after nis
death when in 1975 a statue
of Christ was erected. The
white marble statue is visible
for some distance as it stands
on the crown of one of the
highest red granite hills
surrounded by the beautiful
prairie grasses sad ever-
green trees.
A chapel stands four stories
high and was completed in
1936. It is reminiscent of the
Temple with its thick walls
and twin towers. The chapel
has seating for 125 persona
and is open to die public for
weddings and other gather-
ings.
Irene Malcolm painted her
version of Rome's Sistine
Chapel on the ceiling and
completed her seven year
task with paintings of the
twelve Apostles on the walls.
The Holy City is maintained

open all year for tourists, at
no charge, as is the Wichita
Wildlife Refuge.
So, if you have one day or a
week, an enjoyable vacation
could be made just across the
Red River between Lawton
and Altus, Oklahoma.
