Last Wednesday had to be a proud day in the life of Kent Hare. Kent went for the mail and received his honorable U. S. army discharge. Kent served two years in the artillery, then served four years in the reserves based at South Bend, all his time stateside. Kent is the mustachioed, always smiling, friendly young man at Galloway’s Market, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Hare. H: lj: Don Runge reported a good week end showing at the new Kinder Realty, Inc., home showing at Wawasee Heights in spite of a constant cold rain on Sunday and the presence of exciting pro football games on the tube. * * * No more exciting scene can one behold at this time of year than to see young cub scouts and Blue Bird girl scouts singing Christmas carols at the community Christmas tree lighting Sunday afternoon. * * * Returning home Monday night from a week end at the Las Vegas tables were Mr. and Mrs. John Kimble (Kale Island Beacon), Mrs. Orville Klink (Berniece’s Beauty Shop), and her son, Tom Dswalt (Klink’s Market). * * * Lee Carboneau, manager of Syracuse hardware, returned recently from an annual HWI

merchandise show in the Fort Wayne Coliseum where over 90,000 sq. ft. was devoted to a display of the newest thing in tools, hardware, sporting, plumbing, and outdoor living items coming onto the market. Lee and his sister Gloria, who run the hardware, are becoming well acquainted in the area and are doing a bang-up job. « « # Hanging on the wall in the Ralph Clingaman home on Lake Wawasee is a framed hand bill advertising the farm sale of Ralph’s late father, Virgil, when he gave up farming near Roann. The bill is dated May 16, 1919. Certainly one of the nicest new ’ homes in the area is the threebedroom bungalow owned by Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Cook, located just off Oakwood Road on Koko Drive. It is a Monterey Mid- America home and was built by Brooks Kirchoff in exactly five weeks and three days. It sits on a pie-shaped lot with a 35-foot front on the channel, and has all the luxuriant appointments of a much more expensive home. Owners Lil and Forest own the Anchor Bar in uptown Syracuse. Paul Levernier was so proud of his new signmaking machine and then he broke his arm in the thing last Thursday morning.

This passage from Psalms is included in the Christian Science lesson-sermon titled “God the Preserver of Man” to be read Sunday. One of the passages to be read from Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures by Mary Baker Eddy is: “The history of Christianity furnishes sublime proofs of the supporting influence and protecting power bestowed on man by his heavenly Father, omnipotent Mind, who gives man faith and understanding whereby to defend himself, not only from temptation, but from bodily suffering.” Page 387.

The KCH board voted to continue operating independently in accordance with its instructions from the board of county commissioners and county council, but to extend their fullest cooperation to the Samuel Murphy Foundation towards gaining mutually desired goals of the best possible hospital facilities for the county. No Reply At its November 18 meeting the KCH board voted to offer to lease the Murphy Medical Center and gave its board two weeks to give a reply. No reply has been received. On the other hand, the five seats on the SCMF board were offered to the KCH board, with wide attending publicity. It was made clear at the meeting last night that the five KCH members so named were not told of their selection, and had no knowledge of it until they read a news story concerning their selection. . It was also noted that no KCH board members would or could serve on the SCMF board until so voted by the board of directors. Whether or not any members of the KCH group will, in fact, serve on the SCMF board depends upon an acceptance of the resolutions passed by the KCH group last night. Seeks Dialogue As a token of good faith, the KCH board unanimously passed a motion that its officers and executive committee members continue to attend board meetings of the Samuel C. Murphy Foundation in order to continue a dialogue in search of mutual grounds of agreement. Full Resolution The full text of the resolution passed last night by the KCH board follows: RESOLVED: "The Board of Directors of Kosciusko Community Hospital agree to accept the offer made by Mrs. Hazel J. Murphy on behalf of the Samuel C. Murphy Memorial Foundation to provide five (5) members from the KCH Board to the Samuel C. Murphy Memorial Foundation Board. This offer is accepted subject to the following provisos which it is understood during previous private discussion with members of the Samuel C. Murphy Memorial Foundation Board are acceptable. 1. That the Articles of Incorporation and-or Bylaws of the Samuel C. Murphy Foundation be reviewed and amended where necessary to insure the following: (a) That the "active membership" as defined in the articles of incorporation of the Samuel Murphy Foundation be made up of a group which will represent all townships of Kosciusko County and that will further give representation to all health-oriented groups within the County. b) That this active membership of the Samuel Murphy Foundation then structure itself to provide assistance and guidance to the Board of Directors by making known to the Board the wants, desires, aims and goals of their geographical section or, in the case of health-oriented groups, the needs and desires of such groups with regard to the operation of the medical facilities of the foundation. (c) That the active membership of the Samuel Murphy Foundation annually hold nominations and elect new members to the Samuel Murphy Foundation Board of Directors, and that the board be expanded as soon as possible to include representation of the above mentioned active members. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: ’ . The KCH Board is desirous of restating its goals for the purpose of public record which are as follows: 1. That the makeup of the KCH mem-

bership and the Board of Directors of KCH be completely representative of all areas of the County. 2. That the KCH Board continue to actively pursue the matter of the legality of the bond issue as granted to them by the Kosciusko County Commissioners and the Kosciusko County Council in May 1969 for the purpose of constructing a new hospital facility. 3. That the KCH Board of Directors continue to work towards the goal of adding HillBurton Funds to the County bond issue and, coupled with additional funds, to erect new hospital facilities at the earliest possible date. 4. That the KCH Board continue to operate independently towards attaining the goals as outlined above and in accordance with the instructions given to them by the County Commissioners and County Council at the time of their appointment, however, that they extend their fullest cooperation to the Samuel Murphy Foundation and its board members towards gaining the mutually desired goal of the best possible hospital facilities for the citizens of our county. 5. In order to attain these goals, the KCH board recommends seats on their Board of Directors to Mrs. Hazel J. Murphy and to Mrs. June Baumgarten and other members of the Samuel Murphy Foundation Board which would represent a total not to exceed one-third of the seats on the KCH Board of Directors."
