League Drive Aids
Holland Flood Area
The League’s Drive for clothing t
be sent abroad opened in November
and will continue until the Christ-
mas vatation. “Large cartons have
been ¢Qnspicuously placed in all
the halls, in the hope you will try
to fill them, as there is a real need |
for your used clothing. Anything
wearable, including cotton dresses
and other summer clothing is very
much ‘wanted. The only articles not
acceptable are high-heeled shoes.
The. League plans to send as much
as possible to people in the devas-
tated flood areas of Holland. Any
donations of clothing which we are
unable to handle in this way will
be distributed through the Amer-
ican Friends’ Service Committee.
Please answer the League’s appeal
for clothing with whatever is no
longer of use to you. We on the
League board as well as the future
recipients will greatly appreciate
your help.

Nowadays, the tendency is to lay
charges of persecution to opposing

the only instrument of persecution

Calvin, were not so much fighting
|for religious freedom as for the-ac-
ceptance of their own theories.
In conclusion, Dr. Thouless said

of actual sales in more than 800 co-ops and
campus stores from coast to coast. And again,
Chesterfield tops ’em all.
Only Chesterfield gives you proof of highest
quality — low nicotine. Proof that comes from
actual “tobacco tests” in which all six leading
brands were chemically analyzed.
