LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

So Greencaetle is the most outdated town. T. D. C. said his two cents worth and that's all it is worth . He thinks he can find bargins in Terre Haute and Plainfield. Well go to it, but remember T. D. C.. when you need help like police protection, fire protection. or maybe a doctor, just keep going. You may find it in Cloverdale or elsewhere (and just don't come to our fine hospital

either!.

Talking about our hardware stores, have you ever needed a repair late at night and called the owner way from a party and he tells you “I'll meet you in 15 minutes at the store." He did open up and on Sunday night, too. Having watched Greencastle grow, over the past 50 years, this "old foggie", doesn't like to have It talked down. Speaking of the dust around the cement plant, why not call it our gold. It has given many a man a good paying job. T. D. C., why not look at the good life this town has to offer. Churches of every domination, good doctors, a fine hospital. I. B. M. Plant. Mallories. Zinc Mill, schools, a college and a city park as well as a country club and fair grounds, the many fine homes in and around

Greencastle and all the fine business and houses you find. What other town of this size has all this to offer? If you don't like it here, why not move on? You won't be missed. Our town of Greencastle is as modern as tomorrow and is getting better and better.

IN MEMORY In memory of Loyd F. Cummings who passed away one year ago. Sept. 25, 1963. The depth of sorrow we cannot tell. When we think of the one we loved so well. Deep in our hearts his memory is kept. To love cherish and never fotget. One year has passed since that sad day. When one we loved was called away. Sincere and true in his heart and mind. A beautiful memory he left behind. Wonderful memories woven in gold. These are the thoughts we tenderly hold. And to those who knew him and loved him. His memory will nbver grow old. Sadly missed by wife, Mildred and family. Mother and Brother, Cleon and family.

There is at present an enrollment of 125 students in grades 1-6, 36 in the Junior High and 64 students in high school, totaling 225 students. Mr. Cress then introduced this year's staff.

"Some One Is Good To Us", by Max Bourne. Mrs. Albert Whitehead gave the discharge papers of her grandfather. Samuel Davis, from the Civil War to the Archives. For the program Mrs. Boatright introduced Mrs. Rector who presented a very interesting and informative history of Putnam County which required a great deal of research among the older persons whom she could contact as some of the older records did not prove authentic in some cases. Mrs Rector took up each township, telling of the schools, , 'chers. doctors, first white children born, churches, etc. Indiana was the nineteenth state to enter the Union which was in 1816. Putnam County was named for General Rufus Putnam. It first had six townships. but all have changed names except Washington. Now there are nineteen townships. The first county superintendent of schools came into being in 1873. Each township had its own high school as well as several grade schools. School buildings began to be greatly improved after 1865.

The White House, as has been its practice, declined to classify today’s, trip as political or non-political. It said decisions of this sort w'ould be made later. If there is any doubt 1 whether the taxpayers or the Democratic party should pay fbr the trip, it said, the doubt will be resolved by billing the party. The trip to El Paso fulfillsla long-standing commitment by Johnson and Lopez Mateos.
