As offered by Milton Rue, cam- paign chairman, it reminds us of the “short and simple annals of the poor” in whose interests it was organized. In type the recital that the campaign. collected so much money and gave away so many pairs of shoes or 60 many pounds of oatmeal, may fail to inspire the average reader. On its face it is an outstanding achieve- ment, but unless we get into the de- tails of the venture and go behind the scenes to see what made the project so successful, we lose the full significance of one of the great | bers.

Not one among the thousands of items dis- ributed, whether donated or pur- chased by the campsign committee, hut what tells its own tale of human- ity reaching a helping hand to hu- manity. And still, we do not get at the bot- tom of the thing. Many organizations and individuals donated materials, services and money. Such contributions were many and generous and each had tts inception in the heart of a generous citizen who wanted to do his bit to help along a cause which enlisted the interest of every warm-hearted in- dividual. Some of these contributions were substantial in their character or for relatively large amounts, but the most significant was one of a single dol- jar, “IN came from a man who was helped by’ the “Open Your Heart” campaign last year. This year he was “on his feet” again. Not too securely so, perhaps, but with sufficient strength so that he no longer needed help. The movement which gave him aid when he needed it so sorely was again un- der way. The dollars were scarce cnough with him, it is true, but here was something which he would sup- port if he found it at all possible to do so. That one contribution speaks volumes for the effectiveness of the campaign and the benefit which it conferred upon the community. Those who have suffered know how to ap- Preciate the agonies of other suf- ferers. They have a kinship of spirit with them. And right there we begin to get at the one thing which moved that vast amount of physical goods from the hands of those who did not need it, or could spare it, into the hands of those to whom it was a; boon indeed. It was the spirit of the| enterprises which, rising over and! above all its other phases, made it) an outstanding achisvement and an everlasting credit to this community. People gave generously because they | Know the idea was conceived and would be carried out in a spirit of dollar and every pair of stockings, donated would be put into use with & maximum of efficiency.
