Paper Drive--Success and Failure It's all in one's point of view! As far as the co-operation of our villagers (and many outsiders) is concerned, the entire project was a huge success.

The total was only $20.32 due to the low going rate for newsprint-- a mere 20 cents per hundred pounds! This amount will be turned over to the Cullom-Knoll building, fund after the next meeting of the Ladies of the Lake -- who sponsored the drive.
