Golden Rule
Sunday is to be
Observed Here
Just What Is Golden Bule Sunday
and It3 Purposes Outbned
Do Your Part.
From Saturday's Daily
The announcement has been made
of the fact that Sunday, December
5th has been designated over the
United States as Golden Rule Sun
day, the annual event of the special
drive for Near East Relief.
The Golden Rule Sunday is a day
set apart when it is urged that
everyone make some effort to aid the
unfortunates of the Near East by
partaking of a meal less than usual
and that the saving in the cost of
the meal on Golden Rule day be de
voted to the interests of the Near
East Relief.
The various churches of the city
will make special mention of thr
Golden Rule Sunday that vfalls a
week from tomorrow and urge every
one who can to cut the size of the
Sunday dinner and apply the amount
that may be realized by not having
so large or luxurious meal to thr
help of the unfortunates.
While the Near East has moh years
been a great problem It is aggrevated
this year by the fact of the recent
earthquake that has rendered more
than usual homeless and without the
necessities of life.
Remember the date. December 5th
and make some sacrifice to help out
the Golden Rule Sunday contribu
tion to the Near East.
