"To the Citizens of Seaforth and
District: May I, on behalf of the Red
Cross Society, extend to you our sin-
cere appreciation for the splendid

the recent drive for funds. Your gen-
erosity has enabled us not only to
reach but to oversubscribe our ob-
jective. It is evident that your sup-
port is an indication of your confid-
ence in the great humanitarian. work
of the Society in the alleviation of
human need and suffering the
world over.
Especially do I desire to thank
Mr. Richard Box. the campaign
chairman, and the loyal group of
canvassers. The success of the cam-
paign is due entirely to their untir-
ing efforts.
Yours sincerely,
RICHARD H. WILLIAMS.
