Meigs Chapter For Cancer Is Permanent
Meigs County gains a permanent National Cancer Foundation chapter after a spring drive by the Business and Professional Women's Clubs. Mrs. Guy Reynolds announced the success at a Meigs club meeting after a ham burger gathering at Roadside Park, with about $1,500 raised.

A historical note recalls Anne Joseph Theroigne de Mericourt as a one-time courtesan who led a citizen army in the French Revolution.
