Your Gas And Electric Service Will Continue Despite The Strike i Most Nipsco customers can expect near-normal gas, and electric service even though some of our employes are on strike and others are not wprking because of it. Management people and their representatives are working hard, doing everything possible to keep gas and electric service flowing to your home. We're giving special attention to emergency requests, of course, especially to hospitals and other essential operations and to requests dealing with public safety. If you have a problem and need service, call your local Nipsco office and please be patient. If the phone is busy, please bear with us and keep trying. We will do everything we can to match your patience with a desire to maintain the best possible service until the strike is over. Thank you

WHAT’S THE STRIKE ALL ABOUT?

Nipsco wants hi employes to be well paid. We know that good wages and fringe benefits are needed to attract and keep the kind of people we want and need. This is why we have offered our 2,600 pro* duction, maintenance, construction and operating employes the largest package of wages and fringe benefits ever offered by a gas and electric utility of Indiana. Even before this package was offered, these employes received higher wages than any utility

Box 1225 San Juan, Texas 78589 May, 1968 Dear Friends “Give thanks unto the Lord.” And that is what we are doing for His blessings both spiritual and natural. But especially, for the truck we received this month. We took a step of faith and ordered it but were completely overwhelmed by the tremendous way in which the Lord answered prayer. We still have not quite recovered! The truck is a 1968 GMC, % ton, carry-all with all heavy-duty equipment. It is perfect for the rough back roads in Mexico. How we thank the Lord for you who prayed with us for a truck and for the gifts. Avery special “thank you” to all of you. The Christians at Jose Delgado are growing in the Lord. They are learning the real blessings of being saved and are experiencing healing for thier bodies. They have a concern for those who have not yet accepted the Lord.

hi the state. Even- though this agreement, was rejected by the union's membership, after approval by its own officers and negotiating committee, we intend - in the interest of aN our amplpyns and customers - to continue our efforts to reach a settlement as quickly as pogebfe. The 13-man negotiating committee of Local District United Miste Workers of American including its prestd** tail vicepresident - unanimously agmedi to accepMhis package.

They also have been taking offerings at the services for any needs of the congregation. They made six more benches and hope to build a, new church building before this winter. At the present the services are outside. We are thankful for their initiative in going ahead with things. Pray with us that God wiH soon raise up a pastor for them. The Friday evening Bible classes are progressing well. The children’s class has doubled in size and now we have the class outside. To have 40-50 children in a little mud and stick hut makes it a bit hot and crowded. It is a real pleasure to teach them. Such common stories as David and Goliath are entirely new to them. So they are all eyes and ears, absorbing every word. Several at El Realito have accepted Jesus as their Saviour and are very happy. Praise the Lord! The interest is growing steadily and more are coming out for service. Next week we will begin Bible classes for the children. Recently during a service, there were some who were heckling and mocking, trying to disturb the service. We were thankful nothing serious happened because there is still real danger for missionaries from those who oppose the Gospel. Chris and Lulu Hershberger, Sarasota, Fla. and Mrs. George Artripe, Kingsville, Texas, visited us. We were so happy to see them. It is so good to hear from all of you. Thank you for your pray-

ers and interest in the work. We appreciate it very much. May 'God bless you. Do write soon. Your missionaries to Mexico Carlyle and Freida Welty

Whenever Judge McQuinn is confronted, with a young person in trouble who is too young and must bring his parent, he has a standard question to ask the parent. He’s curious if the parent was not worried when his or her child was out at 2 in the morning. The answer is usually the same. The parents weren’t really aware just what their offspring were doing at that hour. Often the parents themselves weren’t home. The places in the area which are open into the wee small hours of the morning attest to the large number of young people who are not home at what is considered by many to be a decent hour. The Nappanee police will testify that a lot goes on even in our small community after 1 or even 2 in the morning. Maybe it isn’t that parents don’t care. Maybe it’s because they feel that they can no longer control the situation. But local curfew laws can give weight to their arguments if their sons or daughters are under eighteen. There’s a certain pathetic quality about the fathers or mothers who have to come to court with a boy or girl charged with illegal possession of alcohol. Their attitude is often of disbelief. They wonder where they went wrong. In most cases, nobody in their family had ever been in such trouble before. But the more pathetic cases involve those young people whose parents don’t seem to care enough to make a court appearance with their children. In those situations, where there seems to be a complete lack of parental concern, you have the feeling that the juvenile offenders will be back again, either to Nappanee city court or some other one.

East Side Daze By John Hinton School is out and parents are once again faced with the wild Indians on the warpath at home. Summer, however, can mean work for those ambitious souls and relaxation for those lazy ones. Sorry ’bout last week’s column! Seems as though the Editor of the Advance and I duplicated our efforts in covering Senior Class Night Activities. Thus, the column was unusually brief and confusing

due to editing. Students and faculty of NHS will certainly miss Senor and Senora Olivella. The Olivellas, NHS Spanish instructors, will be moving to Florida this summer and will be teaching in Titusville next sumumn. During the months of June and July they will be staying with relatives in Miami while Senor Olivella studies at the University of Miami. The Spanish Club presented the Olivellas with a portable AM-FM radio in appreciation of their service to the Club. A group of the new Seniors had their first official “Senior” party following commencement. Unfortunately the easy light charcoal was all but simple and they resorted to the lighter fluid to continue in grilling their shiSh-kabobs. NHS will also feel something missing next fall without Coach Dougherty. NHS and Elkhart friendly rivalries will now grow to even higher levels. Coach Dougherty brought the Bulldogs of NHS down some rough roads to victory, and likely without him we wouldn’t have been talking about the 1968 Elkhart Sectional. An interesting fact That groovy contemporary saying “Sock it to em” of Rowan and Martin fame proves not to be so new after all. In Herb Lyon’s column in the Sunday, Chicago Tribune, he remarked that the phrase is written in Mark Twain’s “A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court”. Sorry ’bout that. Summer school seems to be the in thing this summer. Courses of biology, algebra and typing are offered this year. In fact, the biology class is filled to capacity. Summer School offers the advantages of studying a future subject and being able to have a lighter schedule the next year or substitute another course during the regular school year. This is the final installment of EAST SIDE DAZE. High School news is difficult to collect with school in session and almost impossible during vacation. We hope it has been of interest to you. I’ll miss the weekly notes and critiques I received during the past months from the publisher of the Peru Tribune, John Nixon. Have a good summer and stay clear of mosquitos and those sun lamps. The flavor of salt is improved by serving it with steaks or French fries.

D.E.N. Jim, our linotype operator, wishes that the campfire girls would pick simpler names. They get longer every year. ★ ★ ★ Nappanee is going to miss the Olivellas. Castro's loss was definitely the gain of the United States. This charming family made quite an impression during their brief stay here. We hope they'll come back. ★ ★ ★ The Norman Berts will soon be leaving for missionary duty in Africa. His coffee club and their wives gave them a party recently. Everyone was to bring a crazy gift. Some of the items included an old washboard, a straight razor with strop, seasick pills, insect repellent, and a sling shot. His friends watched closely to see if all that stuff ended up in a garage sale which the Berts had a few days later. ★ ★ ★ Kerry Miller received the good word that he'll be head manager of Purdue's basketball team. Among other fringe benefits will be his chance to go to Hawaii with the team during the holidays. It couldn't happen to a nicer guy. GEORGE CULP REUNION The 63rd annual reunion of the George Culp family will be held at Martins Park, Wakarusa, Sunday, June 9. A basket dinner will served at noon.
