Hot Lunch Program For
School Children Gets
Under Way Wednesday
The Hot Lunch Program for
schoolchildren gets under way on
Wednesday at noon, announced
Mrs. Pearse Walsh, chairman of
the volunteer group, with Mrs.
Steve Andersen in charge of the
cooking.
The lunches will consist of soup

them will include those children
who live on Belmont Point, the
Sandspit, points east of Steadman
Ave., and some others who are
in need of hot lunches.
With over a hundred children
eligible the space being used at
the LWY Community Center will
be filled to capacity, and the com
mittee urges that children living
near school go home for their
lunches.
Tickets will be issued to those
participating with soup and cocoa
being served for 10 cents each.
To date, $1,224 has been collect
ed and this is expected to take
care of necessary expenses.
Two additional contributors have
been added to the long list of
those supporting the project: Sally
Carrighar and Mike Kelly.

HEARING BAD?
If so, you will be happy to know how we have
improved the hearing and relieved those miserable
head noises, caused by catarrh of the head, for
thousands of people (many past 70) who have
used our simple Elmo Palliative Home Treatment
in the past 16 years. This may be the answer to
your prayer. NOTHING TO WEAR.
Here are SOME of the symptoms that may likely be caus
ing your catarrhal deafness and head noises: Head feels
stopped up from mucus. Dropping of mucus in throat. Hawk
ing and spitting. Mucus in nose or throat everyday. Hearing
worse with a cold. Hear — but don’t understand words.
Hear better on clear days. Worse on rainy days. Head noises
like crickets, bells, whistles, clicking, escaping steam or
many other sounds.
If your condition is caused by catarrh of the head, you, too,
may likely enjoy such wonderful relief as many others have re
ported. WRITE TODAY FOR PROOF AND 30 DAY TRIAL
OFFER.
