TOC THE WORKaR

UPON YOU depends the ultimate success of this
second annual Community Chest drive. Your report, together with
chat of your fellow workers will determine whether the goal of

&12,163.44 is to be reached. A brilliant victory was achieved
test year--but the new quota is nearly $3000 higher, and the
world crisis will make money harder to find.

The very seriousness of our defense problem--
rising prices and shortage of goods--makes this campaign more
important. We have more need than ever for our character~
building and charitable organizations which are part of the Chest,

Owing to the fact that one new organization, the
University ¥.M.C.A., has joined the Chest; and the fact that the
United Service Organization's budget of €2,400 is included in the
Chest total, it will be necessary for every person to give 10 pos
cent more than he gave last year, if the goal is to be reached.

For these reasons, you must be more than just a
collector of funds. You must be a salesman. A salesman necds
talking points for his products. The slogan for this year's

campaign, "Invest in Your Commnity”", is your first talking point,
Explain to the prospective donor what his contribution will mean
to these worth-while organizations and to the comrmnity as a whole,

You remember that one of the main reasons the Chest
plan was formulated was to eliminate the great number of separate
drives which arc carried on cach year. Last year's slogan was
"Nine Jobs in One." This year we are doing "Eleven Jobs in Ono!"

Point out also to the contributor that donations
to Cormunity Chest and to the U.S.0. arc deductablc from income
tax payments. |

SPECIAL QUESTIONS may be raiscd about certain
points or particular organizations. Here are sonmc which have
nlready come to the attention of the Chest officials:

"What is the $1,000 emergency reserve to be
uscd for?"

"Why should I contribute to the U.S.0. whon we
have no army camp here?"

"Why should I give to the Y.M.C.eA. when it is
at the University of Kanaas?"

"Ts it true that a large part of the Salvation
Arny funds gocs outside of Lawrencc?"

ARE YOU ABLE TO ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS? If not,
read this carofully:

The emergency reserve fund of $1,000 (taken from
ast year's surplus of $1,740) was set up to protect the organ-
igations in case the @ wota is not raised in some yoar, In such
ovent, this amount would be divided up among the participants to

enable them to carry on their works

Lawrcnee, of all citics, should be cspecially elad
to contribute to the U.S.0., for our boys arc in army and navy
comps from Maine to Alaska, These soldiers and sailors may find
tt nc hanging heavy on their hands if they have no place to so
ce play when their work is donce 4
