My vision ard hearing are leaving me. The doctors tell me there is nothing they can do. Not wanting to worry about it, I have made projects to keep busy with, in an effort to forget my defects. One of my projects is the history of calendars. I am ’collecting real old calendars to use as illus-

trations and have four that are 1882, 1883, 1887, and 1896 and looking for others. While I am collecting old post cards, bookmarks and Reward of Merit cards, most of my projects concern histories of holidays like Easter, Halloween and St. Valentine’s Day. To make it interesting, I am collecting real old valentines to use as illustrations and plan to give them to a museum when I finish. I have two valentines that are over 125 years old and four that are over 95 years old and .a few dating back to 1880, but on my limited funds. I am having a hard time getting a better represented

collection of real old valentines. I was in hopes that perhaps a few of your readers may have a few real old valentines they do not want, because I would be happy to have any they may care to send me, and be glad to get them. Eventually, I hope to try writing a book about my projects, in an effort to earn enough from It to get off this small VA pension and have some medical care, which the VA is unable to afford me, so my projects have a dual purpose. Thank you for your time and kind consideration in reading my letter. I hope I may be hearing from a few of your readers. Respectfully yours, Leon Thompson To the Editor: I thought you might like to know Nappanee made the San Diego Evening Tribune as the enclosed clipping will attest. At last, I was able to prove to my friends there really is a Nappanee.

I read the first instalment of the letter by the "flower child” from San Francisco and, frankly, I was sorry to see that you saw fit to print it. I realize all too often both sides of a controversy are not presented in news media, but I think for it to have any significance it must be an honest difference of opinion. It is obvious this refugee from reality really wanted to do only one thing make loud noises and unfortunately you provided the means. The pseudocult of the “flower power” is losing many, many listeners here on the west coast because of such inane tirades as were presented to you. I think we can hasten its demise by ignoring the boors. Perhaps, sometime in the future, the poor misguided “child” will grow up, so maybe there is still hope for him. I really wouldn’t want to hurt his feelings too much, but when comparing his “learned treatise” with those mentioned in other

newspapers here on the coast, he has to be classed as a rank ama--1 teur. Lastly, I think all of those people who were “dignified” in, his article should be proud as punch. They really must have something to offer to cause such j vitriolic spewings. Dear Editor: I The youth of Northwood Chapel and their sponsors of Nappanee went to Elkhart Shopping Centers Friday night, March 29 to hand out Easter tracts. Saturday night, March 30. Bob Davenport, the football coach of Taylor University addressed a couple hundred youth at a youth rally at First Church of God. The same night some youth attended a Gospel Singspiration at Church I of God at Locke. | las a proud and thankful citizen am happy to report that we still have some youth in America, yes thousands of youth that are doing good, clean constructive, character building work. Have we adults been partly to blame for our juvenile delinquents so prevalent in our day??? I protest against always hearing about the bad our youth are doing. If we adults could see the good in our youth and lead them to do constructive character building projects, we would see a better America. Let’s turn the tide and quit talking about our youth that are so bad (Phillipians 4:8) Let’s talk about the thousands of American youth that are doing good things and as Frank A. White says “we as citizens need to let the world know in a loud and clear voice that many of our youth are doing good.” So let’s give our youth a better chance. May the youth who read this be inspired and keep doing good. May other youth who don’t see a purpose for their lives catch a new vision and start doing for others. Our youth are not the church of tomorrow. They are a very vital part of the church today. I don’t know about you, but l am proud of our many Christian youth who are not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ (Romans 1:16). I am also thankful to be an American citizen and to live in this community. I am also thankful to the police of Nappanee, South Bend and Elkhart for their cooperation who always remark, “yes, go ahead and hand out tracts. We

He had been ticketed two weeks before on the same offense and had paid a fine before the Justice of the Peace. He said he had ordered anew muffler. He paid $1 plus costs, and j Judge McQuinn reminded him of the amount he had already invested in mufflers.

We think they look nice. ★ ★ ★ The Television Bureau of advertising is now claiming that the average viewing time per family is six hour? and 33 minutes a day. Can that be possible? ★ ★ ★ Sorry it happened to Roy Slagle, but we were most grateful to the armed robber for doing it on Tuesday. Thus we were able to get it in the paper and scoop the others. ★ ★ ★ Tuesday, some of those who have been helping on various aspects of The Odd Couple were invited to a "sneak preview" of the rehearsal. This is the first time in Civic Theater's history that rehearsals (up to now) have been closed. It makes it much easier for the cast and director. ★ ★ ★ People wonder how we decide which stories about candidates to run. We usually lean to those who give the weeklies a break in releasing their announcement so that we don't have to run it a week later than the other papers. ★ ★ ★ One of our readers took the trouble to''look up an answer to the question as to what president taught at Harvard. It was John Quincy Adams. Teacher Mike Kelly has been having his students get used to looking op material in various sources. It's provided good training and makes for interesting conversation at home. ★ ★ ★ Went to Chicago Friday and were right in the middle of the department store fires. Very frightening. Were glad to get back to little Nappanee. ★ ★ ★ Another letter from Jim Eilers.
