To conclude its concentrated
drive for the sale of $752,000
in War Bonds, Pisgah Lodge will
hold a bond auction.
The war bond committee, head-
ed by Max Goldhoff and Rudolf
Leitman, with the aid of many
members, has gathered a number

donated by our own Max Gold-
hoff, is a solid gold pen and pen-
cil set which sells at $125 to
$150.
