George L. Myers Forest Park Valpariso, Ind. 46383 September 26, 1968 The Editor - Advance - News. Nappanee, Ind. Dear Sirs, When you are on a business trip, and your car decides to quit, Nappanee is a good place to have it happen. 'Last Tuesday Sept. 24, on a trip to Goshen, stopped for coffee at corner of Main and No. 19, notified by lady in next car that radiator was leaking badly. Drove te first filling station on left aide. (Forget what brand). Young win raised hood took look and notified me that he would call the Foard Service station. In ten minutes, Bobs Ford Sales wrecker was there. Water pump busted, to two hours I was on the road to Goshen. While waiting, I had to. use phone, go to rest room, do some book work. Some man, maybe Bob, invited me to use his ffme. The girl in the office makes good coffee. The head shop man was an expert with the service, along with the mechanics. The man that worked on my car was calling me “'Dad” at the end. A service I’ll never forget. Geo. L. Myers Editor’ Advance-News Nappanee, Indiana I swore Fd never write you a letter-, but I was so mad at that jjtjupid letter last week, which must have been written by somebody in your family. In the paper every week, you try to make news by talking about all the beer and liquor which young people are drinking. You don’t know it, but there are very few people here who do that. The great majority of our kids are good. You never mention when any high school boy does anything good. There’s never anything in your paper about all the good people. We have a son who got all the way through high school without getting into any trouble, and he was never mentioned in your paper. A Proud Mother

TALK OF THE TOWN at BARBARA KRREt 71M5U

It's so bard to believe that summer is aver and only throe months remain in 1968. The fall season is an especially nice time of year and one need not look far to see the beauty of autumn splendor. Parke County, Indiana’s Covered Bridge Festival in late October will draw thousands into that area, and anyone wishing to make the drive South will find it well worth your drive. The Jaafcee Turtie Derby drew quite a crowd to. Stauffer Park Saturday. There were a number of races, with turtles sponsored by focal merchants and individuals and cheered on by youngsters of all ages. Individual winners received prizes and the right to the grand prize of a bicycle, which was awarded to the winner of the final race. Other contests included a sack race, pie eating contest and money scramble Seveml Nappanee couples recently had the pleasure of a nine day trip to Europe. Traveling as representatives of the American Institute of Kitchen Dealers were the Charles Chapmans, Ed McElhenys and George Kurtzs. Also in the group were Mr. and Mrs. Bill Beemer, former Nappanee residents. The couples flew from New York September 12, and visited in Cologne and Frankfurt, Germany. The gentlemen attended a meeting in Frankfurt with German kitchen dealers. Also on the agenda was a trip to an appliance company and a kitchen manufacturer. The couples shopped in Cologne, visited the Cathedral and saw the Black Forest. On the evening of the Kurtz’s wedding anniversary, the Nappanee group attended a German festival, complete with band and marksmanship contests. Other activities included a trip on the Rhine River, visits to castles and the Trade Fair.

The Chapmans, MeElhenys and Beemers left Germany for a trip to Zurich and Lucerne, Switzerland. They enjoyed sightseeing and a cable car ride to the top of the mountain. Mrs. Chapman reports a “dream come true” trip and highly recommends the two, countries for anyone who wants a wonderful vacation. Mr. and Mrs.. James Tobias entertained members of their family last weekend at their cottage in Michigan. The occasion was to honor S/Sgt. Jerry Lanning, who recently returned from a years tour of duty in Alaska. Mr. and Mrs. Lanning (former Carol Rohr) will leave October 14 for Georgia. Also present for the occasion were Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Stahley. The Blue Birds Calendar Sale starts October 16. Please help these girls in making their annual earning project a success. The average American child wears out a pair of shoes each 45 days, with boys a bit ahead of the girls.
