Clerk Roy Bur - Returns Come .In For Easter Seals Receipts to date are running ,slightly ahead of of the same per- iod last year in the annual' Easter Seal campaign, according to com- mittee chairman Len Ford. Out of a total of 1,900 envelopes and seals mailed, 142 enclosing cash and cheques have been received for a total of $380.00. Results have been most encour- aging with over 90 per cent of the amounts received being from the. Town of Seaforth.

Some envelopes have been receiv- ed by the treasurer with seals re- turned and no donation enclosed. Since this costs the campaign six cents for,each envelope, those who receive seals and do not wish "to contribute to the cause are asked to hand the seals to a relative or friend rather than return them and create added expense.
