many, are not those of Joe Stalin

initial is "V".
Probably none of us will ever
know how much counterfeit money
we handle, and probably won't
,Worry much about it until we
are caught innocently passing it
some time. Anyway, the treasury
is now warning the Ixublic to
watch for $1b bills with the letters
E, G. I. L on the left face or the

glad to check it for you.
Logging is definitely stopped
now and the rocking chairs begin

,Well, Harry's enjoying life in Key

The Knife and Fork Club had
a highly successful session Monday
xight with V. V Roulsten serving
as chairman, aided by R. W. Lark-
key and Joe Hayes, Wonder if
Mrs. Roulsten knows what an ac-
complished cook her husband can

the cooking? Maybe we'll never
know. Rev. P0doll, Bill Hawson
and Dale Hannah were guests for
the occasion, which was filled in
with local and distant moving pic-
tures.
The Standart Lake, which comes
into prominence following every
good rainstorm, is now at its

W-P BLOOD BANK CAR
TO BE AT GREENVILLE
BEFORE CHRISTMAS
Making possible the contritm-
tion of an important Christmas
gift for the boys who are fighting
on the Korean front, the Western
Pacific Blood Bank car will be
on a Greenville siding on Decem-
ber 17 and 18, announced Chair-
man Marge Casteel
"This car, the "Charles O. Sweet.
wood," military procurenient car,
was outfited and donated by the
.western Pacific Railroad for use
)y the American National Red
.ross in their blood program. The
led Cross arranges the schedule
of the car, taking it to out-of-the-
way communities such as ours
where there is no regular blood
bank. The Western Pacific Rail-
road has made itself responsible
for keeping the schedule, even
.though this usually means un-
scheduled stops for its crack
strcamliner to pick up the blood
r to move the blood bank car.
'rhe Western Pacific Railroad is
an outstanding example of donat-
Ing unselfishly. We, as a com-
munity can do the same. Let us
all who are able give our pints of
lood for the armed forces."
"This win e your opportunity
to give a pint of blood for the
benefit of the men in the armed
services, and also to see the novel
set-up provided by the railroad for
this purpose. Plan to ,be available
and ready with your blood contri-
bution on the above dates."
All s#ores in Geenville will
be closed ,all day Thursday,
Thanksgiving Day, it is under-
stood. A special short worship
service will be held at 10 a.m.
at the Community Church, con-
ducted by the Rev. Elmer Podoll
and the public is invitedl

FOREST RECEIPTS UP
TO NEW HIGH
THROUGHOUT STATE
More than 2 million dollars
will be diStributed among counties
of California containing National
Forest land as their share in Na-
tional Forest receipts for the last
fiscal year which ended June 30.
These estimates of amounts to be
distributed have just been releas-
ed by Regional Forester Clare
Hendee of the Forest Service with
headquarters in San Francisco.
This amount, $2,340,741, repre-
sents an increase of about 138%
over the last fiscal year's returns
to the counties. This increase is
the result of higher prices for
some national forest products and
the opening up of new areas for
fuller utilization of previously un-
developed areas. Current receipts
indicate that next year's returns
will go even higher. New records
will probably be established in
most of the counties concerne&
Ever year, 25% of each Na-
tional orest's total earnings is
divided amqzq¢ the cotmttes in
hicha National 1Porest is located.
The division is made in proportion
to the percentages of 4ationai
Forest land within each county.
All monies received by the various
counties is used for roads and
schools.
