that area. , ‘Northern Canada was the destination of the Howard Barricks and their son, Phillip, who left Friday for a two week vacation at a lake in northern Ontario. The Barricks hope to enjoy a leisurely vacation at this somewhat remote spot swimming, fishing, boating, and just resting. During the last week of their stay the Pat Carunchias are also planning to join them. The busy Barricks also enjoyed another outing the week before their Canadian trip. They attended a party at the Morris Park Country Club in South Bend with other Chevrolet dealers and their wives from the South Bend zone. A special feature of the days activities was a lavish luau with entertainment provided for the affair by Samoan dancers. All this climaxed a most enjoyable and entertaining day. The Everett Pippen Jrs. bid a reluctant farewell to their daughter and little granddaughter, Mrs. Tom Elliott and Jennifer, who left Monday after a five week stay in Nappanee. The Dick Wengers drove them to St. Louis, Mo., where Tom was to meet them and take his family on home to Vernon, Tex. The Pippens hosted a nine month birthday party for cute, blonde, blue-eyed Jennifer on the 4th of July. Her three Wenger cousins, the Anglemeyer girls, and our own three rascals helped consume a dec orated cake and quantities of ice cream and joined enthusiastically j" playing games while the excited little guest of honor looked on as though wishing she were big enough to join in the fun!

Cranes from Monroe, lowa, were here to attend grandson Jim’s graduation, the three other Crane children, Cathy, Cheryl, and David, returned home with them for a visit. Curt and Dorie then took a combined business and pleasure trip west, land while he transacted business [ for Mutschler Bros, at several places, she did the tourist bit and [saw area attractions and especially haunted art galleries and museums wherever they stayed. In Colorado the Cranes visited the big modern air force academy and spent some time in Colorado Springs, a n.d Denver. While in Greeley, Colo., they visited relatives and later enjoyed a drive on the snowy Trail I Rich Road high over the Rockies. I Salt Lake City, Utah, was also a place where there was much to see, and while there Curt attended a Mormon Meeting Os Priests which was most interesting and Dorie learned to work with plastic at a craft shop. An unusual wax museum, they enjoyed there, featured all biblical characters and had an impressive portrayal of the Last Supper done with wax figures. The Cranes then traveled on through Logan Canyon and made stop-overs in both Teton and Yellowstone Hj>- ■ tional Parks. Mt. Roshmore was one ' of the specific destinations on this trip but before arriving there this adventuresome couple saw a sign advertising a tour of Jewel Cave so

they stopped to join a group of underground explorers! Although the descent on foot was quite rugged and sometimes precarious they reported the cave was a fabulous place and well worth a visit if you are strong and able to rough it a bit! The temperature inside the cave, incidentally, was a cool 44 degrees compared to the hot weather outside. In Cody, the Cranes spent some time at the \yhitney Art Gallery and Museum where the work of western artists is featured and Buffalo Bill and the Wild West was a popular theme! In lowa the Cranes visited her folks in Davenport and joined their children at the Crane home in Monroe. In both towns friends and relatives congregated for family get-togeth ers so the Cranes enjoyed seeing many familiar faces again. Making themselves right at home in lowa during their months stay, the Crane children played in the town band while they w'erc there. The family returned home together by the 4th of July holiday. The Ivan Martzes had a farewell supper Friday evening for their son, Gary, before his departure for the air force early this week. Here for the weekend to attend the party were the Martz’ daughter and family, the Glen Hamiltons of Park Forest, 111., and their two little girls. Mrs. Eulah Hamilton

Last week was a busy but happyone for the local Archie Fike family. Their daughter, Frances and family, the Jerel Books and young Michael, arrived from Grantham, Pa., June 27 after '2O hours of travel and some unfortunate car trouble. On Sunday the Fike’s two daughters, Erma and Frances, held an open house in honor of their parents 25th wedding anniversary. They were assisted by three ladies of the Village Church who helped serve 81 relatives and friends who came for the special occasion. In addition to many guests front Nappanee, others attended from Garrett, Pleasant Lake, Ft. Wayne, Kendallville, Chicago, and Portage, Mich. The Fikes received many nice cards and gifts and thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated the celebration which was a memorable one for them. Their actual anniversary date was Tues., June 30 and that evening the Fikes, their daughter, Erma, and the Books were dinner guests of Erma’s fiance and his mother, Mrs. Conrad Slessinan and Larry of Elkhart. Thursday the Book family and Grandmother Fike visited friends in Garrett and were dinner guests at the Walter Davidson home that evening. The annual 4th of July picnic of the Village Church Sunday School was another outing the Books enjoyed while here. The picnic was held at Cook’s Ranch in Elkhart and they later attended the fireworks display in Bremen, during the evening. Sunday was another festive day for the family as the Fikes had a dinner party to celebrate a double occasion. It was not only young Michael Book’s first birthday but also an announcement party for Erma Fike’s engagement. A final celebration was observed Tuesdayevening at a family dinner partyin honor of the Books second wedding anniversary. After a busyweek of visiting and celebrating

They were accompanied by Lori Meyers, granddaughter of the Elmer Stutzmans. Another traveler, who has been away for a month, also returned home Saturday. Mrs. Evelyn Bechtel of Wakarusa left with a group on June 3 by jet plane for a lour of Europe. The trip was sponsored by the Purdue Glee Club and as a member of the State Home Ec. courses Mrs. Bechtel has often joined their tours. The large paity of 137 people were divided into 2 groups and left from Chicago byplane on the first lap of their journey which took them to Shannon, Ireland. There they were met by buses and this was their main mode of transportation as /they traveled through 10 countries. From Ireland they sailed across the Irish Sea to Dover and boarded a bus to tour England. A stop-over at Stratford-on-Avon was a highlight at this point and the group made their way by bus with stopovers for sight seeing in Holland, Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Lichtenstein, France, Italy, and beautiful Belgium. They enjoyed such European attractions as an outdoor concert in Lucerne, folk dancing in France, gondola rides in Venice, and of course all the usual tourist attractions, art works, and sculpture in Rome, Italy. In Rome the Purdue Glee Club presented a concert at an orphanage and the world travelers later visited the famed Isle of Capri via hydro-foil. The finicular and ski lifts in the mountains were also other unusual modes of transportation tried out Jay many members of the party. It was a busy four weeks with a crowded itinerary to follow and much to see and do. There were of course unforseen and unexpected problems in transporting such a large group in foreign countries but it was a trip Mrs. Bechtel will long rcjfoiember with mixed emotions and great satisfaction. The feller who toots his own horn soon finds others learn to avoid him.
