Greenwood (18 March 1965)

Mrs. Myron Kenyon is again serving as Easter Seal Chairman for the city of Greenwood.  The Easter Seal campaign for funds, in appeal to aid crippled children and adults, is sponsored by the Clark County American Legion Auxiliary, with Mrs. M. C. Thompson of Abbotsford as county chairman.  A house to house canvass started March 15, with members of the local auxiliary as volunteer solicitors.  Letters are being mailed to people in the rural Greenwood and Willard area for their contributions.  Sixty percent of the income from the drive remains in Clark County.
