H. L. Paisley, general chairman, stated in urging all persons who have not yet subscribed to volunteer their contributions atonce.Many Not Yet Listed “If the remaining citizens who have not given give as generously as those who already have subscribed, we will raise the neededsum early” a member of the soliciting committee said. “We arc listing names for ready reference and are sorry to see a number of well-known names not yet listed among subscribers.

If no more quarters are made available for girls desiring to come here, they will have to go elsewhere for the training.Draws Large Out-of-town PatronageThe hospital itself is patronized by out-of-town people to more than 50 per cent of its patients, thus bringing outsiders here.“These tilings enter into our appeal to the local public to make it possible to complete the Nurses’ Home.“We know the merchants are ‘solicited to death’ and always are the first persons hit. We appeal to the professional people, the’ physicians, the lawyers, the society persons, the retired men and women to aid in this cause. We»would like to have every name in Fayetteville on the subscription list before this is completed.The list of subscribers submittedSaturday too late for publication fol-Several hundred persons both from town and nearby towns visited the Fayetteville cheese factory Saturday and Sunday and others inspected the plant today when operations were begun about one o’clock this afternoon, and when the cheese-making process was fu^n here for the first time.51 t ents u Found for Itutter FatFa id FarmerForty-one patrons (delivered milkto the plant this morning, receiving54 cents a pound for their butter fat end agreement to return to them free of charge the whey, which by-product can be used for hog feed.Twenty-five hundred pounds of milkwas turned into the vats to start thecheese-making process, with prospect that first shipment of Fayetteville cheese would be made by the latter part of the week.11.
