TOO LATE TO™ CLASSIFY By RUSSELL KAY “I TOOK TWELV: (EDITOR'S NOTE: This art- icle was written by Russell Kay beyorid the close of the drive for funds for the Infantile Pa- ralysis Foundation. It failed to reach The Citizen in time for its publicity value during the campaign. However, it is so worthy of publication, The Citi- zen herewith includes it in its columns today.) Among the m ding, the welt known rican poet and artist, is a lad, victim of infantile pa- who wrote him a letter I took twelve steps today . began and the Jetter was full of Don was it is to be published soon .

Don nspired to write: TWELVE STEPS I took twelve letter said, Six steps each way. to door and back to bed. Oh, it was so good. I walked alone. No crutch. No cane. I stood and looked and looked. It hurt like pain. Good pain . . . to see the trees so tall and strong. Blue distances were calling, call- ing like a song. ‘Come . . . come to us!’ Oh, 1 will go to them.

No one knows the suffering and agony they go through for their world is shrunk- en. They are called on for extra fortitude, they have to dig down and down for that added courage necessary to keep plugging ahead. .”,| It is that indomitable courage that should be our inspiration, just as it was Don’s to do something for them. Perhiips we cannot all write a “pgem’} but we can con- -|tribute from the abundance that is ours, that they may have a bit niore care.and attention. “Twelve steps”, the letter said. “T took-twelve steps, today” . . ; And you and IT, we take hundreds and often gripe because we ave | jrequired to walk a block or so. It ‘seems that until that privilege is taken from us we cannot appre- (ciate our bl ng at being able |to walk as many steps as we jchoose. But, oh, what those prec- jiou eps mean to one who for jlong has been denied them. | Throughout this land of ours re thousands of little sufferers ‘who eagerly await the day when they too ca vrite, |steps toda: They appeal to you and to all of us more fortun- jate to give them a helping hand. Let's underwrite those steps, {not just twelve, but millions of jthem. While the steps you take ecm insignificant sand val- they are priceless to the j infantile paralysis viefim. . Whé can place-a price on these first twelve steps told about in this lad’s letter to Don? You can make such steps pos- jsible for other sufferers. Your |dimes and dollars contributed now to the.“March of Dimes” will | do just that. Don’t call that taxi, | walk the six biocks and count your steps, pondering as you dc so on your good fortune at being {able to walk them and then con- | tribute the amout you would have |paid in fare, plus a generous tip |to the “March of Dimes”. Then somewhere, sometime, a courageous youngster, his or her little face wreathed in pain, but eyes bright and shining and little heart beating frantically with eager hope, will be able to say, ‘I took twelve steps today.” — Good steps, precious steps in which you will share. son’s- ek “Hh ae H antes YA ete tes minimus ran us cease ease ox wget ada gle ew oa Po HELP WANTED TELEPHONE OPERATORS WAGE INCREASE Learners now earn a mini- mum of $31.20 per week for 48 héurs work Wage rates for experienced operators are proportion- ately higher Frequent increases, addi- tional payment for evening Sunday and holiday work MANY OTHER ADVANTAGES Let our Chief Opérator, Mrs. MeDerinott, tell you the whole story Apply 9 to 5 at the TELEPHONE OFFICE feb1-tf All kinds of kitchen and dining room help wanted.

Holland was_in World-War I and Green ithe Navy of World War It, jwhich he enlisted after Wnett governorship. Burch, a real es- tate agent, was a World War It sergeant.
