Cartoons exhibit visits Nappanee Public Library

From the antics of fat-cat Garfield to the cracker-barrell philosophy of Brown County savant Abe Martin, the many creations of Hoosier cartoonists are highlighted in the Indiana Historical Society’s traveling exhibition, “Indiana Cartoons and Cartoonists.” Nappanee Public Library will be the first stop for the exhibit, the exhibition will open March 15, and may be viewed through April 11. Library hours are 9a.m.-9p.m., Monday through Thursday, 9a.m.-5:30p.m., Friday, and ■9a.rn.-sp.rn., Saturday. Indiana artists have entertained millions of newspaper readers across the country. The exhibit explores numerous comic strips, including the amusing characters from “Chic” Jackson’s “Roger Bean,” to the editorial musing of Pulitzer Prize-winning artists John T. McCutcheon, a fierce opponent of America’s entry into World War 11. The Indiana Historical Society is a private, nonprofit organization founded in 1830 for the purpose of collecting, preserving and promoting Indiana’s history. During the Nappanee Public Library’s 1992 “Cartoon Daze,” the work of several nationally and internationally known cartoonists and artists from Nappanee were featured: Merrill Blosser, creator of “Freckles and his Friends;” Francis (Mike) Parks, editorial cartoonist; Henry Maust, commercial artist; Fred Neher, creator of “Life’s Like That;” Bill Holman, creator of “Smokey Stover;” and Max Gwin, creator of “Slim and Spud.” The work of these cartoonists is

Farm Bureau sets spring meeting in Wakarusa

Improving family communications, and understanding what makes individual members within the family “tick,’’ will be the topic at this year’s Elkhart County Farm Bureau spring meeting, Monday, March 21. Set to begin at 6:30p.m., the dinner meeting will be held at Nelson’s Port-A-Pit Banquet Hall, Wakarusa. Larry Green, of Transfo-Tech, Inc., Middlebury, will conduct this seminar on family communications. During the program, each participant, from age seven years through adult, will learn his/her social style, through the use of “Personal Style Survey Disc Instrument,” according to Green. “We use the characters of the Peanuts cartoon series to illustrate whether individuals have dominate (Lucy), steady (Charlie Brown), influence (Snoopy), or compliant (Schroeder) social styles. Then, we try to help families learn to love each other through understanding the differences in their styles and personalities,” Green continued. “This meeting topic is one of the results of a year-long study the Elkhart County Farm Bureau conducted last year with its membership,” explained Mike Yoder, president of the Elkhart County Farm Bureau. “Our members told us they needed more information on how to help improve communications within the family. “With that in mind, we’ve planned Aft evening progfam designed to involve the whole family, and, at the same time, to assist individual family members in understanding and working to overcome some of the barriers they encounter in their family communications.” Sponsored by the Elkhart County
