triotic music, along with Lester Summeral’s float from South Bend, great clowns from Kansas, the guys back from Desert Storm, many horses, antique cars and ovely queens. With the weather so perfect, it was a great parade. They spent the afternoon enjoying the Round Town Ramblers, of Rymouth, the horse pulling contest and then enjoyed supper with Pauline Powers in North Liberty. Florence Garwood was a recent dinner guest of Edna King as they have been good friends for over 50 years. Guess what they had. Did you ever eat turtle? That is a delicacy. Edna’s son bought her a snapping turtle, all cleaned and ready for the frying pan. Did you know that the neck has seven different kinds of meat and that is the best part so Florence told me. Don’t think I’ll be eating any as my mom fried a pan of turtle once and it look delicious, but it jumped all around the frying pan, and that was enough for me, 1 couldn’t eat any. But Florence told me if you freeze it first, it relaxes its muscles and it won’t jump around. Jane Dearing called on Gladys Sheneman Saturday and brought her a 1941 telephone directory, which she found in Esther Dearings keepsakes. It is something to look at, sure wasn’t many names in it 50 years ago, like there is in ours now. Do you remember back when the telephone office was located up over the town hall? Helen Neid--lin ger worked at the telephone office for 40 years. She started in 1928 when she took Hazel Pointers place. Others who worked there were Laura Foresman, Buleah Wooster, Ruth Gark and Velma Wharton. Helen began in the year 1928 and worked, then left, later went back and then retired in November 1973. There has sure been a lot of changes since way back then when we were on a party line and our neighbors could listen in.

I’m really glad for our private lines today, but I do miss going to the telephone office and paying my bill each month, don’t you? And having our own telephone office in North Liberty. Did you happen to see all the motorcycles pass through North Liberty during the noon hour on Sunday. There were over 800 and they went from Crumstown, through North Liberty, into South Bend and back to Crumstown Conservation Gub, where all enjoyed submarine sandwiches and pop. They took in thousands of dollars in this area for the Jerry Lewis Telethon and his kids. Mrs. Edna Steele was taken to the LaPorte Hospital with pneumonia. She is reported as doing quite alot better and she is in room 3216.
