Mrs. Paul (Edna) Olinger! of Columbus, Geogia, and Paulette (Olinger) McConnell, of Edwardsburg, Michigan was in North Liberty last Wednesday visiting relatives and friends. Last Tuesday afternoon, Mary Joe Golubski, activity director of Miller's Merry Manor and Myrna Stull, van driver, brought the following residents from the home to Craft’s Ice Cream Parlor where they all enjoyed ice cream sodas while Gladys Sheneman played the old time piano. Others present were Jamie Sheeley, Vera Klinedinst, Virginia Timm, Shirley Shaw, Gladys Wilkerson and Martha Shaw. After they finished their sodas they had a sing-along. I received a note from Faith Snodgrass, of South Bend, this week stating that she was the one who wrote in to the Senior Life Magazine to let me know how to whiten my piano keys that were yellowing. She said to take cow’s milk, not homogenized, so my good neighbor, John Dooms brought me some sweet com and a little cup of milk right from the cow and you know, it really worked. So I owe John and Faith a vote of thanks, because I had tried so many different things and nothing took the yellow away.

Young people can bring something that represents study, sports or play. Retired people can bring a symbol of their former work or their new lifestyle. All symbols will be placed at the altar during the worship service and dedicated with a prayer. Members are encouaged to read the devotional booklet "Partners With God’’ they received in the mail.
