Order Red Guard Back To School HONG KONG UPI — Red China’s revolutionary youth havt been ordered back to school to study the gospel of revolution according to Mao Tse-Tung. Most Chinese schools have been closed since last spring when students were drafted into the fanatical Red Guard movement as "shock troops’’ in Mao’s cultural revolution, or

purge.

But Peking leaders lately have expressed concern about the destructive pace of ’the purge, and particularly the rampages by the "vacationing’’ Red Guard youths who were given a free hand to spread Mao’s word. While todays announcement by Peking radio mentioned only the reopening of schools in Peking and Shanghai, China’s two largest cities, previous reports have indicated an earnest drive to get primary and and junior high schools operating again throughout the Communist mainland. Girl Scouts Had Winter Campout Senior Girl Scouts in Greencastle Troop 360 braved the cold and wet weather over the weekend to winter camp in the lodge at Fern Cliff. The girls cooked their own meals and thoroughly enjoyed camping together. The rain on Saturday did not stop them from a service project in leveling the muddy road back to the lo Ige and filling in the chuckholes. A new member was added to the troop in the form of a little brown and white dog called Nipper. Nipper belongs to the Charles Johnson family. In order to keep warm at night, the girls set their cots in a semicircle around the fireplace, and Nipper patrolled the troop walking from cot to cot. She was a good protector for the Girl

Scouts.

Attending this winter campout were Christine Johnson, Sue Smaltz, Anne Silander, Sally Eppelheimer, Linda Bryant, Gail Anderson, and Elaine Shumaker. Leader of the troop is Mrs. Charles Johnson.

4-State Session Is Scheduled For RCA Leaders How can farmers have all the credit they need to run their farms this year and what will it cost? These questions will be uppermost in the minds of directors and officers of the Greencastle Production Credit Association as they attend a fourstate conference of Production Credit leaders in Louisville, Ky., on March 13 and 14. Some 300 from Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee will be in attendance. Representing Green castle Production Credit at this meeting will be Charles Mays, sec-retary-treasurer; Sam Janeway of Hillsboro, president; Gerald Hartman of Bainbridge, vice president; Millard Francis of Terre Haute, director; Dale Schrier of Brownsburg, director; and Raymond Parks of Hillsdale, director. Several of the men will be accompanied by their wives. Already, in January and February of this year, the Greencastle association has made loan commitments totaling more than $3,000,000 to its farmer-members in Fountain, Montgomery, Hendricks, Boone, Putnam, Morgan, Parke, Vermillion, Clay, and Vigo counties, Mr. Mays reports. Farmer’s credit needs in 1967 are expected to exceed this of 1966 rather substantially in Central and Southern Indiana he predicts. The Louisville confer ence open with a report by H. C. Hayward, president of the Federal Intermediate Credit Bank, which last year provided 642 million dollars in loans made to farmers mostly through Producction Credit Associations. Economists from the Universities of Kentucky and Purdue will discuss the economic and farm management outlooks and Farm Credit Governor R. B. Tootell, Washington, D. C., will speak on "Farm Credit Faces Its Challenges.”

In Memory In memory of our loved one, Bob Schroer, who left us on March 7, 1966. One year has passed since that sad day When one we loved was called away. The Pearly Gates were opened A gentle voice said "Come.” And with farewells unspoken You gently entered “Home.” You left us a beautiful memory But a sorrow too great to be

told

To us who loved and lost you Your memory will never grow

old.

Since you have gone first and We remain, to walk the road alone We live in memory’s garden dear With the happy days we have known A happy home we once enjoyed How sweet the memory still. But Death has left a loneliness Which the world can never fill. More and more each day we miss you. Friends may think the wound Is healed But they little know the sorrow That lies within our hearts concealed We weep not that your toils are over Weep not that your race is run. God grant that I may rest as calmly When my race like yours Is done. Sadly missed by his family

OBITUARY SerIes Farm Oi^ert Knetzer. o ( Mr. MtotiligS Shted

and Mrs. Charles Knetzer was bom in Putnam County, Indiana, Jan. 10, 1894. He passed away in the Putnam County Hospital, February 9, 1967. He received his common school education in the Fillmore School and took his high school work at Greencastle. He also attended DePauw University, and was a Veteran of World War L Gilbert was united in marriage to Miss Helen Dietrich of Greencastle, July 27, 1919 and to this union were bom three children: Martha Davis, now at Yorktown, Herschel of Coatesville, and Merribeth Wells of Fillmore. In early life he became a member of the Fillmore Methodist Church and was a member of its choir, but after his marriage he and his wife made the Christian Church their religious home. Whan Mr. Knetzer was but a young lad, he displayed a marked talent for music and he started singing with his sisters, Ona and Avis. Later he sang in a men’s quartet and then calls came for him to sing alone at funeral services. These calls came even from distant places and they were nearly always answered for this kind hearted man felt he should serve those in trouble and he loved church music. He was blessed by his Creator with a strong, clear and yet a tender voice that was soothing and uplifting to all who grieved. When asked a few years ago how many funerals he had attended as a singer, he answered that after passing a hundred or more he had lost count. His voice, his manner and his song carried hope to those with aching hearts. God gave Gilbert Knetzer that talent that was used, and never hidden. Age and declining health finally won and he could answer no more calls. Hundreds will recall and thank him for the help he so willingly gave with a song. He was a mild-mannered gentleman, a good and obliging neighbor, a happy husband and father and all will mourn his passing. Three stanzas of Edgar Guests’ poem entitled "People Liked Him” tells in verse pretty much the story of Gilbert Knetzer’s life. “People Liked Him” People liked him, not because He was rich or known to fame; He had never won applause As a star in any game. His was not a brilliant style, His was not a forceful way But he had a gentle smile And a kindly word to say.

“To compete successfully today’s complex and growing farm businesses must have the latest up-to-date methods of tax reporting, production planning, and business and financial management,” according to Paul Jackson and George Waltz. Jackson and Waltz announced today that a series of three meetings, “Paper, Pencils and Pushbuttons — Decision Making Tools” will be held beginning on March 9 at the 4-H Fairgrounds on 41 north of Rockville. The second and third meetings will be on March 16 and March 23rd. All these meetings start at 7:30 p.m. Dr. Ed Carson, Extension Economist, Purdue University, will lead the discussion. Emphasis in the meetings will be given to organizing a system of assembling, classifying, storing and making use of farm business information. In the first lesson on March 9, Mr. Carson will discuss what is needed for a good farm business center. Discussion will include filing systems, systems for handling financial, production, and personal records, and office equipment. The second lesson a week later will deal with making use of farm business information. This will include collection and use of information for tax analysis, production planning, business analysis and organization, financial analysis, and investment planning. There will be practical examples of all of these uses. The third lesson of the series will involve discussion of making an economic evaluation of contracts, losses, and other business arrangements. All interested farmers should call or write the County Extension Office, in Greencastle or Rockville, to enroll in this course.

Card of Thanks We want to take this opportunity to thank the Lions Auxiliary, our friends and neighbors who contributed to the generous fund for us and to all those who remembered with cards and flowers. Jimmy Owen and family

A very special thank you to each from Mrs. Edward Troxell and Max Battin for your cooperation in helping. Mrs. Edward Troxell

Wasn’t one to boast of gold Or belittle it with sneers, Didn’t change from hot to cold, Kept his friends throughout the years, Sort of man you like to meet Anytime or any place There was always something sweet And refreshing in his face. Never rose to wealth or fame, Simply lived and simply died, But the passing of his name Left a sorrow, far and wide. Not for glory he’d attained, Nor for what he had of self. Were the friends that he had gained, But for what he was himself. By Edgar Guest
