brary and/or Museum of the Kitchen is almost a necessity. Here in Nappanee, and nowhere else, are the men and their recollections, the business records and historical materials documenting the history of the kitchen as we today know it almost from its beginnings. Diligently collected, preserved and catalogued, those materials available might form the beginnings of a collection Which, if Systematically augumented as possible, might perhaps become the foremost collection of its kind anywhere. A further development might be the tracing of the history of the kitchen back to antiquity in the form of miniature reproductions of kitchens thruout the periods of history. Certainly here is the craftsmanship, properly directed and chaneled, to do such a thing. Many other developments would suggest themselves. Where else is there a more logical site for such a collection? (2) From Nappanee have come more top-notch cartoonists per capita than from any other city in the world, giving substance to its nickname “Cartoon Town”. Before those cartoonist-sons of Nappanee are gone and their collections of original drawings, books, mementos, etc., are forever dispersed, suitable quarters for permanent preservation should be made available—perhaps in a Cartoonists Memorial Room in the basement of the library. Certainly those gentlemen would have a warm enough spot in their hearts for their old heme town to give such a notion careful consideration—unless of course their collections’ final disposition have already been determined. With those as a beginning however, other collections might follow, again making it one of national significance. Such a collection, properly used and augmented as possible would serve as a constant reminder of the city’s fame in the field, and perhaps inspire other young local cartoonists to follow. Many, many possible uses for such materials collected would now and later almost suggest themselves. All such ideas would of course be long-range undertakings. The whole job could not be done today, or tomorrow. But first a beginning must be made. And already the time for such a beginning is long past. Sincerely, James L. Weygand 207 N.

| At The Library j “TlfS “Miking of the President By Theodore H. White This book is a story of the 1960 election. It begins actually when John F. Kennedy almost won the Vice Presidential nomination from Estes Kefauver in 1956. At that time his team of young and able politicians began their planning for the White House in 1960. Joseph Kennedy, the candidate’s father, although keeping in the

Ted Sorenson and brother Bobby Kennedy began systematically developing an attack unit which was efficient, thorough, and far reaching. Ivory local politician in every state was screened and studied. The candidate himself knew by heart the various local factions and problems. On the other side was Richard Nixon, frustrated because he was forced to take a back seat in the Eisenhower Administration, yet unable to speak out against various aspects of it. Richard Nixon, who, as the author points out, had an unusually great desire to be liked, but who had boon the target of ill kinds of personal attack. There was Rockefeller, who disliking Nixon intensely, was to give him a bad time all through the pre-convention days. By the time the Democrats met in Los Angeles, the Kennedy organization had built up an amazingly effective system of communications. The primaries had all but assured Kennedy’s nomlationn. It was now necessary to begin election strategy. By the time of the first ballot, the whole team was operating like a well oiled machine. Mr. White gives several reasons for the election’s outcome. He feels that the Catholic issue probably helped Kennedy in many areas more than it hurt him in others. Norman Vincent Peale helped this, he thinks, and the masterful handling of the Texas Baptist ministers also was an asset. But White feels that the negroe vote was an important one. The jailing of Martin Luther King and the quick action of Bobby Kehnedy and the candidate himself were great political strokes. White says that Ike was anxious to help from the beginning, but NiXon aides tried to keep him out of it until it was too late. White gives Ike great credit for retrieving Ohio for Nixon by his last minute efforts. Nixon had bad press to begin with. He did little to improve this. The newspaper men who traveled with Nixon were treated indifferently. On the other hand Kennedy would personally see to the personal comforts of newspapermen and his staff would always see to it that they got some newsworthy story. White believes that Nixon’s decision to visit all 50 states worked against him. He had to go to Alaska, for example, when he might better have concentrated on some trouble spot in a key state. Nixon did not listen to advisors as did Kennedy. Kennedy spent long hours being briefed for his tv debates. Nixon, tired and lonely, sought refuge alone in his hotel room. Even after the disappointments of the first debate* advisors were unable to get Nixon to change his methods of THF" proach. There was gloom and bitter feeling of defeat early in the campaign in the Nixon camp. The Kennedy people, on the other hand, were sensing an overwhelming landslide and were just as shocked over the ultimate close decision. The election of 1960 was one of the most exciting in history. Few will ever be as does. Mr. White,

BUSY MAN— We don’t know where she heard it, but Mrs. Margaret Wyalit’s “HEAR and There” column in The Brown County Democrat contained this gem: “No matter how busy a man is, he’s never too busy to stop and talk about how busy he is,” BIG HEARTED A Scottsburg man, Elmer Hutton, displayed a generous attitude toward the 13-year-old boys accused of stealing bis automobile and then damaging it. The boys, identified as escapees from a children’s home at Lyndon, Ely., are alleged to have stolen Hutton’s car while he was in a restaurant near Scottsburg. A friend, Donald Bloom, saw the boys driving away and he and Hutton gave chase in Bloom’s car. During the chase the cars collided and the boys were later captured as they fled on foot. After learning the youngsters’ ages, Hutton, although his car had been damaged to the extent of S7OO, insisted that the sheriff take the boys to a restaurant where he bought them steak dinners before they were taken to jail.

SMALL WORLD While motoring through the northwest, Mr. and Mrs. Reed Gushwa of Delphi stopped for gasoline at a filling station in Whitehall, Montana. As they pulled into the station some 1,300 miles from home, they were astonished to see another automobile with an llndiana license plate bearing the prefix “QC,” the prefix assigned to Carroll County. The car belonged to Olaf Brown, another Carroll County resident. It wai just a coincidence that the Hoosiers from the same county met in the far away place.

Cave drawings and Caesar’s descriptions gave good ideas of what they were like. During the 1920’5, as an experiment, this new species
