To the Advance-News: It has been 3 months stnce the Community Concern Committee established the Open Door, a place where those who had time and talents to share could register as a volunteer and those who had needs could come for assistance. The large number of people who have become involved in the work of the Open Door make this a real community venture. May I take this means of thanking all of those volunteers who helped in any way during my three months as chairman of the volunteers. The Advance-News for your generous publicity. The staff of 5 who answered the telephone and kept the record of activities, and the 3 substitutes who came when called. The two cub scouts who helped prepare the reports for mailing and who got up at 6 a.m. to be sure they’d be on time a Camp Fire girl who helped deliver reports. All the volunteers who responded with a cheerful “Be glad to” when asked to help with transportation, sewing, visitation or whatever service was needed. The four teachers who gave many hours to our tutoring program, not only teaching, but

Modern wonder Margaret Peters sets up the Communications Terminal at the Nappanee Auto License Branch as coworker, Wilma Stillso'n looks on. The machine enables the Nappanee branch to issue drivers licenses directly, instead of using the old method of sending information to Indianapolis, where permanent licenses were issued.

up with the Indianapolis office. Only some information is placed on the tape in the local computer, and the machine relays the information to Indianapolis where additional information is sorted out and fed back to Nappanee. The entire process takes only a couple of minutes, according to Margaret Peters, local license branch employee, or if there are a lot of machines on the line at once, it may take as long as five minutes. She has found the machine a wonder to work with, and has extended the invitation to anyone who would like to stop by to see the computer in action.
