Letltr To Tho Editor

(The Daily Banner received the following letter from a 17-year-old Japanese girl in Kobe, Japan. She contacted this paper through the International Pen Friend Society.) To The Editor: Please forgive me for taking up your valuable time. I am a Japanese girl and am very eager to find pen friends in your country. I am writing to you in the hope that you can help me to get in touch with them. I'd like to exchange information about student life and various topics in our everyday life and to discuss current international problems. I think this kind of direct communication between friends of about the same age will help both of us to learn about each other's country. It will also undoubtedly help me to brush up my English. I also think we might have fun swapping items in our hobby collections. I promise to be a faithful friend and correspondent to

any boy or girl who wishes to be my pen friend. I have been at a loss to n..iow how to get in touch with young people in your country, but recently the International Pen Friend Society advised me to write to a newspaper editor in your country and ask for help in locating friends. I hope you can pass my letter on to a young person my age who would like to have a pen friend in Japan or perhaps publish my name in your esteemed paper. Thank you, in advance, for your kind assistance. Sincerely yours, Ikuko Iga

P. S. Here are a few facts about myself. I am a 17-year-old high school student. My main interests are writing letters, taking pictures, and reading books. My address is: Ikuko Iga

Parents Advised To Park Cars So Front End Is Facing Street

NEW YORK UPI — The newest life - insuring tactic: park your car in driveway or garage so the front end faces the street.

Do it to cut down the chances of running over small children. Because they’re too short to be seen in a rear-view mirror, the

The new officers of the Greencastle O.E.S. No. 255 were installed Saturday night, March 13th, at 8:00 o’clock at the Masonic Temple. Installing officers of the evening were Della Weir, Crawfordsville, Installing Officer; Jocie Kircher, Greencastle, Installing Marshal; Roberta Hopkins, Green castle, Installing Chaplain; Paul Evans, Greencastle, Installing Organist; Judith Beyers, Chicago Heights, 111., soloist. Miss Beyers is a music student at DePauw Universtiy. Rev. Alvin Mattox, minister of the Methodist Church of Austin, Ind., was the minister of the evening. Rev. Mattox is a brother-in-law of the newly installed Worthy Matron. Mrs. Dolores Hughes, Worthy Matron, was escorted to the East by her husband, Gene Hughes, and her son, Jeffrey Alan. Judy sang to her “A Wish Is A Dream Your Heart Makes.” Maynard Tuttle, Worthy Patron, was escorted to the East by his wife, Leona, and son, Jimmie. Judy sang to him “Climb Every Mountain.” After they were both installed she sang “Bless This House.” Other officers installed for the year are: Associate Matron — Virginia Brann Associate Patron—John Poor Secretary—Eva Boatright Treasurer—Edna Poor Conductress—Joe Staggs Associate Conductress — Leona Tuttle Chaplain—Hazel McCullough Marshal—Jane Green Orgaist—Dorisann Albright Ada—Jeanette Cox Ruth—Myrdell York Esther—Barbara Joan Judy Martha—Betty Brummett Electa—Mary Lou Rhinehart Warder—Betty Cooper Sentinel—John Schmitt Bible Bearer—Maggie Glidewell After completion of the installation everyone gathered in the dining room for refreshments. The tables were all beautifully decorated with pastel flowers and candles. Several out of town guests attended the installation.

One of the most beautiful coins ever to be struck by the United States was the Liberty Walking Half Dollar. A. A. Weinman designed this coin and his initals “AW” appear under the tip of the wing feathers. In 1916 when the coin was first released the Mint Director described the new half dollar in these noble words: “The design of the half dollar bears a full-length figure of Liberty, the folds of the stars and stripes flying to the breeze as a background, progressing in full stride toward the dawn of a new da;,, carrying branches of laurel and oak, symbolic of civil and military glory. The hand of the figure is outstretched in besto'-al of the spirit of Liberty. The reverse of the half dollar shows an eagle perched high upon a mountain craig, his wings unfolded, fearless in spirit and conscious of his power. Springing from a rift in the rock is a sapling of mountain pine symbolical of America.” The fine detail and splendid workmanship created by the engraver can truly be appreciated when examining this coin under magnification. Liberty Walking halves are still in circulation and one can put together a complete set without too muen difficulty. The key dates which will give you the most trouble are the 1916-S, 1917-S (on obverse side) 1921 and 1921-D. All issues prior to 1930 are normally well worn when found in circulation, however, nice specimens are occassionly found and are worth much more.

Corps Open For Women Marines

Two year enlistments in The United States Marine Corps are now open to women who are at least 18 years old and are or will be high school graduates by June 1965 according to Staff Sergeant Harold D. Morts, Marine Corps Representative in Terre Haute. Sergeant Morts said “these women \ ill have the same advantages as the women who normally enlist for three or four years.” The Marine have women working in such fields as photopublic relations (radio-televi-sion - newspaper) communications, supply, machine accounting and about all phasis of aviation except flying. Women may also take advantage of the Marine Corps 120day delay program— they can enlist four months prior to their departure for recruit training at Parris Island, South Carohna, which consists of 8 weeks of indoctrination training. Interested women may get further information by visiting The Marine Office in the Post Office in Terre Haute, or by calling Terre Haute, Crawford 0044 extension 351. Applications are now being accepted on young men and women into the 120-day delay program for active duty in June and July.
