Mr. Donald Nichols > tppanee Advance News I :ar Don: Read with interest the editorial your paper relative to a proam for local relief. The idea is od but a word of caution. Some--1 nes these things .can become ve--3 difficult in determining who r erits the funds. In this day and a e, it is hard to realize that there i i’t some already existing service 1 at could handle something like 1 is but funds being short as they e, it is not always easy to meet iat seems to be an obvious need. The U. C. S. would be glad to h lp in explaining what benefits r e available not only from our (> vn agencies but also from State i id County services. Hope this is of some help to 1 >u. Sincerely, William R. MacDonough Executive Director United Community Services. Os Elkhart County

Nappanee Advance News Nappanee, Indiana , Dear Editor: A center offering good used clothing for sale and operating as a ommunity project might be a partial answer to the problem raised n recent editorials. The center would provide the ollowing benefits: 1. provide a needed sendee to nany children and adults, espeeilly during the winter months, 2. realize profits which could be ised to provide other services to families in our community. 3. serve as a channel for volunteers and church members who wish to help. 4. form the nucleus for a social sevice program in Nappanee Rev. Palmatier, Executive Secretary of the Elkhart County Council of churches, has said that he would assist us in the organization of a venture of this kind. However, this cannot be imposed on the community from the outside; the initiative must come from the ministers and lay people of Nappanee. There has recently been in progress an effort by the Council to organize Nappanee churches for joint efforts of this kind. Seemingly, a more positive response needs to be forthcoming on all our parts for it to succeed. Sincerely, Marie Eichenberger Mr. Editor: I see by the paper you are trying to help the poor by starting

a welfare organisation. It is really needed in all communities. But, please, Mr. Editor, if you’ve known the man or woman 15 or 20 yeax&r then whoever is. at the head! should know if the persmt is deserving; or net. Don’t make them ask for a hex of oatmeal or a couple es cans af milk. That is too much like begging! Better give them a ha cap aud a license to beg. If deserving, they aren’t going to buy liquor. We were helped during the depression by an organization to which each member donated. But we had to ask for each article, and thes it was handed to us. But it j looks as if you can’t be trusted with a dollar, and this makes you .ashamed to face your former friends. More power to the Christian people of the churches and clubs who remember these folks at Christmas. No name please

tertained members of their family at a birthday celebration for family members whose birthdays were in January. Those honored were Brenda Ervin and Alicia Pate. Brenda had to miss her party due to a bout with the flu, but was given her presents later. Those attending the party were Russell Ervin and Beth Ann, the Charles Pate Jr. family and Jack Oarothers family, Bremen. Mr and Mrs. Bruce Tobias and the Tom Rohr family. Also present were Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Stahly and Eddie. Oire final note on the girls’ freshman basketball team. They defeated Bremen Monday evening by a score of 36-19 and also taught the girls to the west a little about good sportsmanship. Every girl who played did a good job and their final season record is three wins and one loss. At the risk of sounding' partial, I won’t mention the name of high point gal, but she pumped through fourteen points to lead her team in scoring.

Newcomers To Nappanee

The Stuart Alfanos have just moved into the home they have purchased at 455 N. Madison Street. This is the former home of the Cecil Stalnakers who recently moved into one of the apartments at 1651 E. Market Street. Mrs. Alfano’s name is Judy and there are two young sons in the family Mark is 5 and Greg is 2. The Alfanos come from Goshen and he has been commuting to work at Coppes, Inc. offices for a couple of years. Today’s dollar seems to be designed more for speed than for endurance.

D.E.N, OiM of tho most vicious things about or small town is gossip. Poopic are too inclined to believe the very worst and are not hesitant in spreading anything they hear without checking their facts. This can easily result in the damaging of a reputation. People seem to like to add little details to a rumor they've heard. ★ ★ ★ Another depressing note. In Time Magazine, there's a list of the ALL TIME best sellers. In fiction, Peyton Place leads the list with over 9 million copies. On the list, which includes God's Little Acre, and Return to Peyton Place, are five Mickey Spillaines. What do you suppose a future historian is going to write about our era? ★ ★ ★ When Abraham Lincoln first went to Congress, John Quincy Adams iwas still in the House of Representatives, and Daniel Web-

ster, Henry Clay, and John Calhoun were in the Senate. This is one of our favorite periods in American History. ★ ★ ★ What's the matter with the old editor wo can't fire? Twice he's written that Lyle Yoder won an academy award. He knows full emit it was Lisle Roose as the Mayor of River City. At least several read what was written. ★ ★ ★ Speaking of academy awards. We were thinking of high spots of past shows. If there were any awards for those they'd have to nominate Jack Schwartz for his recitation in Solid Gold Cadillac, Henny Mattern as Ado Annie, Charlotte Pippen as Mrs. Paddy, Nancy Biever in Plain and Fancy, Ginny Bloomfield singing Climb Every Mountain, and that funny bit with Charlie Roberts in "Teahouse". There were so many good things in each show. ★ ★ ★ Several weekly newspapers in Indiana are in bad shape. Business for this one holds up pretty well. There are still a large percentage of loyal advertisers who believe that "all business is local".
