Army restricts mailing free subscriptions to soldiers.
All post master were directed to stop mailing copies of newspapers to members of the armed forces at foreign posts unless they are identified by a special postal permit. The post masters orders said, "Individual copies of newspapers or magazines shall be accepted for dispatch to APOs outside the continental U.S. only where subscriptions are specifially requested in writing by the addressee, or for subscriptions now in effect."
The effect of the order was to prohibit free or complimentary distribution of local newspapers to men in the armed forces overseas. Newspapers could only be mailed by the publisher and only if the soldier was the subscriber. The paper had to be marked "Mailed in conformity with P.O.D. Order Number 10687."
So in order for the Sun to comply with the regulation, families were requested to bring in a written statement from their relatives who were in service, show that they still wanted to receive the Sun.

Help keep up the McKee Gym
By William L. Huntsman
Aided by voluntary contributions from the citizens of McKee, the fund donated by a real friend in the North enabled our city to have a fine gymnasium. It was built for all, regardless of church affiliation. It is used regularly by our school basketball team, and by informal groups almost everyday.
But certain thoughtless children have forgotten that all are partners in its care. Damage done by one carless user may deprive all of its use. Just a little cigarette butt may burn it down. Hobnailed shoes may splinter the floor. Carelessly thrown balls may break lights, clocks, and windows.
Experimenting with fire extinguishers may keep them from being available when they are needed. Locked doors picked with jack knives, mean insulting bad locks to innocent users. Torn and bent stage scenary and curtains spoil amateur stage productions.
Parents ! talk to your children about this matter and enlist them in the partnership of caring for their gym, which we have the good fortune to have in our community.
