W. Magazine. Wm. E. "Bill" SPELL, who beats the drums for the Red Cross hereabouts, suggests the following bit of inspiration offered the Hinds countians who are lagging behind in their donations of blood to the Jackson Defense Blood center: AMERICAN BLOOD Take blood, my brother, yours and mine! Brave blood, that held Columbus to his course And turned the New World into a land of homes.
Blood, calm with faith, that raises alters on the hills And beats in time with bells that call across the plains. Young blood, that blazed trail of courage to the West, Stern blood that throbs in anger and avenges wrong. In these red drops are gathered armies quick to fight For homes of free men and the right! The greatest treasure I can give, Brother, take this blood and live! -Eunice Mitchell Lehmer A LAMP UNTO OUR FEET "They helped every one his neighbour; and every one said to his brother, Be of good -Isiah 41:6. HELPFULNESS "A blind man tapped upon the curb And I let his appeal disturb My hurrying steps, to wait and lead Him safely and to meet his need. There are so many we can find In this big world who are not blind.
But mindful of your help and mine In little things. It would be fine To take time out of busy days And lead folks over dangerous ways." -Julien C. Hyer.

The men have been branded by Dr. Felix Underwood, of the State Board of Health as "frauds taking advantage of the present polio drive to prey upon the general public's generosity."

The cost of the inspection, the men said, is $100 with the government paying $75 and the owner $25. One lady told police she gave the men $5 as part payment for her inspection.
The men told her she could pay the other $20 later. She said the men gave her a local telephone number and address where they said they could be reached. Chief Pierce said he contacted the Chamber of Commerce and they also knew "nothing of any such drive." One of the men was described as between 35 and 40, 5 feet 9, 150 pounds with dark hair.
