Mr. Chauncey H. Phillips was guest of honor at a dinner party for bank personnel and their families held at Torr’s Restaurant Friday evening. Mr. Phillips retired as cashier of the First National Bank on March 30, 1968. Chauncy, as most persons call him, came to the bank as bookkeeper in 1933 after having served as bookkeeper in the Amo bank for several years. Mr. Phillips has the desire to do some extensive traveling, therefore he is really looking forward to retirement. Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Hadley were guests at the retirement party to show slides of many different countries and states they have visited.
When Mr. Phillips was asked what his immediate plans were he answered that he looked forward to a trip to Minnesota where he is interested in some history and in mid May he would take a trip to Europe with a visit to a number of countries and a stay long enough to see what he had for several years longed to view. During his years in the bank he has been a friendly and courteous employee and has the sincere respect of all bank officials and patrons. Mr. B. E. Lydick, president of the bank announces the appointment of Mrs. Dorothy F. Jenkins as cashier, and Mr. Douglas K. Phillips as assistant cashier and

assistant trust officer for the bank. Here is a little story of “high finance" told by a successful business man of one of the counties largest towns. A few weeks ago when our worst snow storm came this man’s driveway was knee deep in drifts and his wife advised him to hire them cleared. When he went outside he saw a fifteen year old lad he knew approaching and asked him what his charge would be to clean the drive. The boy stated that first of all, he was not seeking employment and that if he were his charge would be five dollars. Since his mother had only moments before handed him a five he didn’t need any more. This man went on to say that he did the job himself in some twenty minutes. “I am wondering:, he continued if I’m hopelessly behind the times, lost my bearings or what has happended to this country! When I was that boy’s age I would have been tickeled pink to have cleaned that driveway for a quarter.” Looks as if the old town might have some baseball again this summer. On Monday, April 15, Richard Trump will be chairman to an organization meeting to form both a Pee Wee and a Little League team. It is good to see folks interested in our

boys and directing them into clean sports that keeps them interested and busy throughout the summer. Many folks here enjoy going to the old school ground diamond to see the boys play each week. Hog killing came close to home this week when on a Mr. Parson’s farm near Danville some $1500 worth of 250 pound porkers were driven into an excavated pit and executed with high powered rifles and 410 shot guns. A lot of good food was then covered with dirt. Many of us are in a study about these proceedings. Hard to say who has the right answer. The board of commissioners of Coatesville have ordered that all dogs and cats be vaccinated on or before April 13. A veterinarian will be at the fire station on the date given for all who desire his services. Many dogs and particularly big ones are running all over town these spring days. They seem to make a problem in every town and city. Town marshalls and police would rather not shoot them and in most places there is no dog pound, hence the problem. Mr. Ollie McCloud, a man of 87 years became extremely ill of a heart attack Tuesday night and was hurried to the Putnam County Hospital. A report from his family Saturday was that Mr. McCloud was considerably better. Word has been received from Naples, Florida that Miss Hazel Poer has lately been subject to two heart attacks and had spent several days in the hospital. Hazel is a well known lady of both Amo and Coatesville as a former township teacher and later a retired teacher from the Elwood School System. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Powell, former Coatesville business people, write a local friend that they have recently returned to their home in Franklin. They spent the winter months on Florida’s west coast. Reverend Samuel Phillips,Conference Secretary of Missions of the North West Indiana Conference, will speak and show pictures of Vietnam at the Coatesville Methodist Church Tuesday evening, April 16, at 7:30 p.m. Everyone is urged to come and profit by thisworthwhileprogram. Reverend Phillips is the minister of the Methodist Church at Monticello. Mr. Chester Walton, from the state of Oregon, is visiting relatives and friends in town this week and next. The last time this writer remembers seeing Chester was in 1901 when he entered the first grade at the old Rose Cottage School and I was an eighth grader. The little lad that I knew then is a man now of 72 years with hair as white as snow. We knew each other Sunday morning at church and shook hands and laughed at our changed conditions. Miss Linda Coffey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Coffey of Coatesville and Ralph Montooth, son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Montooth of Stilesville were united in marriage Saturday April 6 at 2:00 o’clock at the Belleville Methodist Church. Miss Coffey had as her attendants, Misses Jody Harper, maid of honor, Roberta Runnells, and Diane Coffey, bridesmaids. Mrs. Robert Stanz was best man and ushers were Dave Hampton and Norman Pickett. The married couple will make their home in Danville. Easter Sunday is coming and Good Friday and Easter bring to mind a tradegy of several years ago. An hour before school dismissed on Friday the janitor came into my school office and announced that moments before more than a ton slate had fallen at a nearby mine and crushed to death three men, the two Steele boys who owned the mine and a Terre Haute business man. I knew the Steele boys for they the death message two mothers came to my school and left with a weeping seventh grade daughter and a sorrowing eighth grade son. As I drove home that evening every road side thicket was white with dogwood bloom and every hill side was pink with red bud. I had left death behind and all
about me was a glorious spring time resurrection. On Sunday the minister spoke of a great promise that Christ had made to all mankind. “I am the resurrection and the Life. He that beleiveth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live and he liveth and believeth shall never die.” All around me was a radiant Easter spirit but my mind kept going back to three families whose joy had been taken away. We should not as Americans neglect the birthday this Saturday of Thomas Jefferson, author of the Declaration of Independence. He was a fair architect and inventor, a good botanist, a first class fiddler, and a man “as honest as the daylight.” He was a President of these United States and he and John Adams died in the same year on the 4th day of July. Firing across Jordan River AMMAN (UPI)—A military spokesman said Jordan and Israel today fought a 45-minute tank and artillery duel across the Jordan River. The Jordanian spokesman said Israelis opened fire with tanks and medium artillery at Kureima about 30 miles northwest of Amman on the east bank of the Jordan River, the Jordan-Israel ceasefire line. “Jordanian artillery returned the fire, bombarding Israeli artillery positions,” the spokesman said. There were no Jordanian casualties, the spokesman said. Kureima is half way between the Dead Sea and the Sea of Galilee. Wrong Red LONDON (UPI)—A divorce court judge refused Mrs. June Porter a divorce after her husband convinced him red marks she found on his handkerchief were not from the lipstick of any other woman — merely from his wife’s red panties, which had run in the washing machine. Obituary Letha 1-ay Crawley, age 63, died April 3, 1968 at the Eventide Rest Home. She was born May 12, 1904 in Clark County, Illinois, the third daughter of Henry and Melvena Custis.
