Mrs. Paul <Edith) Sands, r 2 Milford, a 31-year-old mother of three, is one of the proudest members of the 1969 Wawasee high school graduating class. Mrs. Sands has accomplished a goal she set out two years ago to achieve—she has received her diploma. The Sandses moved from Tefft in Jasper county about 6Va years ago to a farm southwest of Milford. Mr. Sands is a fanner. When the Sandses were married, Edith was 16 and planned to finish her high school. education, however, the arrival of her children did not allow her time to further her education. The Sands children are Tim, 13, who will be a freshman at Wawasee in the fall; Pamela, 11, and in the sixth grade; and Joey, seven and a third grader. When Joey entered school Mrs. Sands decided she too would go to school. It wasn’t the easiest thing for her to do and she relates how she dressed in her Sunday best one day and headed towards the high school to enroll, however, when she got to town she lost her nerve and ended up uptown instead of at the school. Then one day when she was in town she went Ito the school on a spur of the moment decision and enrolled. Mrs. Sands tells how she was encouraged by Milford high school principal Donn D. Kesler and of becoming a junior at MHS in the fall of 1967. Mr. Keiser is vice principal at Wawasee. Now that she has her high school career behind her Mrs. Sands plans to open a drapery shop in her home. She would like to enter college but feels she should wait until her children are older and don’t need so much attention. Her interests are in politics and government, but she enjoys sewing and caring for her family. She also enjoys the freedom of the farm. She will be eternally grateful to the school officials who let her return to school and to her fellow students who accepted her and the teachers who helped her.

By JERI SEELY Mrs Russell Ruch gave us a call Monday morning to ask if we had read the “Remember Me?” article on the editorial page of The Goshen News last Thursday. We had not, so looked the article up and are reprinting it here as a guest; column. We think it worth reading and have only one comment to make — are you guilty? “REMEMBER ME?” Hello, remember me? Some people call me Old Glory, others call me the Stars and Stripes; also I have been referred to as the Star Spangled Banner. But whatever they call me, I am your flag or, as I proudly state, the flag of the United States of America. There is something that has been mothering me, so I thought that I might talk it over with you.

Because it is about you and me. I remember sometime ago — I think it was Memorial Day — ’people were lined up on both sides of the street to watch the parade. The town’s high school band was behind me and naturally I was leading the parade. When your daddy saw me coming along waving in the breeze, he immediately removed his hat and placed it against his 1 left shoulder so that his hand was directly over his heart. Remember? And yoli—l remember you. Standing there as straight as a soldier, you didn’t have any hat but you were giving the right saluteMhey had taught you in school, mom, she was saluting the same as you. I was very proud as I came down your street. There were some soldiers home on leave and they were standing at attention giving the military salute. Ladies as well as men all paying me the reverence that I deserve. Now I may sound as if I am a little conceited. Well, I am. I have a right to be. Because I represent the finest country in the world, the United States of America. More than one aggressive nation has tried to haul me down but they all felt the fury of this freedom-loving country. You know. You had to go overseas to defend me. What happened? I’m still the same old flag. Oh, I had a couple more stars added since you were a boy. A lot more blood has been shed since the Memorial Day so long ago. Dad is gone now. The old home town has a new look. The last time I came down your street I saw that some of the old landmarks were gone, but in their place, shining majestically in the sun, were a number of new buildings and homes. Yes sir, the old town sure has changed. But now I don’t feel as proud as I used to. When I come down your street you just stand there with your hands in your pockets and give me a small glance and then look away. When I think of all the places I have been, Anzio, Guadalcanal, Korea — and now Viet Nam. Then I see the children running a-

round and shouting. They don’t seem to know who I am. I saw one man take his hat off and then look around. He didn’t see anybody else with theirs off so he quickly put his back on. Is it a sin to be patriotic any more? Have you forgotten what I stand for? Have you forgotten all the battlefields where men fought and died to keep this nation free? When you salute me, you are actually saluting these men. Take a look at the Memorial Honor Rolls sometime. Look at the names of those that never came back. Some of them were friends or relatives of yours. Probably went to the same school with some of them. That’s what you are saluting. Not me. Well, it won’t be long until I’ll be coming down your street again. So when you see me, stand straight, place your hand over your heart and you’ll really see me waving back—-

my salute to you. And I’ll know that you remember. — Author Unknown Mr. and Mrs. Urban Bauer and Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Vogel of
