Because we raise the question, please don't think our doors are not always open to the fund solicitors nor our pages open to publicity to help put over each and every drive. The Empire is willing and ready to do its share. | And while we are it, we should mention that the Christmas Seal Sale for the Alaska Tuberculosis As- sociation is in progress, as is the Alaska Crippled Children’s Association drive for membership as well as fund drives for the Boy Scout and Girl Scout organi- zatlons. Do you see what we mean? But these organizations all need assistance to sup- port the good work they accomplish, and until such time as a Community Chest plan is started in Juneau, we urge you to support these individual drives. | ; Being Ernest i sein i -Enquirer) ] There is nothing like controve: we always say.'
