Pop tabs for children

Lonnie Engle, Liberal, recently delivered 22 gallons of pop tabs from aluminum cans to the Ronald McDonald House in Joplin, Mo., to benefit the organization. This has been a long-term effort by Engle, and this delivery brought his total donation to 50 gallons. Engle said that many people save the tabs "so that many people with children in the hospitals may have a place to stay and be close to their sick child." Engle also expressed appreciation for all who have donated, with special appreciation to the Missouri National Guard unit in Nevada, and says he's still collecting tabs and can be reached by those who wish to donate at (417) 843-5645.
