Summertime And The Livin' Is Expensive 7

By JOHN SINOR Copley News Service Summertime and the living is expensive. She said: “Have you seen the price of meat lately? I don’t know WHAT I’m supposed to buy for a family this size.” It is true. For the tab on enough steak to feed this family one meal, you could buy the whole cow, live and on the hoof, not too many years ago. I said: “If this keeps up, I’m going to have to dust off the old musket. Maybe set a few bear traps in the woods.” She said: “It’s nothing to joke about. Look at this bag of groceries! For $19!” Too bad I do nd have my Poor Poet’s cookbook anymore. We could have inexpensive, but poetic, meals. My wife gave me that cookbook before we were married. She thought of me as poetic. I KNEW I was poor. There were meals in that thing you could fix for less than a dime. The Poor Poet’s garlic soup was one. You boiled a little bit of garlic in some water, then poached an egg in it. Then you poured soup and eggs over toast. Add a little candlelight and a half dollar’s worth of red wine, and the effect was like dining on the Left Bank. I could just see feeding these kids garlic soup today. “Hey! What’s this ucky stuff? Can’t I have a cheeseburger?” We are an equal rights household these days. I am fixing dinner while she is going to school. Not much room for variety in the kitchen I find. I started to whip up a differ-

'Sounds Os Hope' Tour Returns Home

By RALPH P. KARSTEDT We left Indiana on Friday, July 7, and began a journey of many miles. We went to Eurpoe as carriers of “Sounds Os Hope.” There were 68 persons of all ages in our choral and orchestral group. Together we traveled in an effort to establish and deepen personal and international friendships across the seas. During our month in northern Europe and Scandinavia we sang and played nearly 20 concerts. Our audiences were warm and friendly. They hummed with us as we sang; they visited with us following each concert; and I know that we will never forget them. We took ourselves and our talents to Europe. Each of us brought back a little of Europe with him as he returned. How can you forget the wonderful Hollanders who sang and danced with us in a reception following a theater concert in Noordwijk. There was a fantastic polka line and in the spontaneity of the moment everyone forgot who was American, German or Dutch. The foods of each nation had their own true greatness. The schnitzel and kraut of Germany, the fantastic pastries of Scandinavia, the simple meat pie to which we were treated in an English home — each, in its own way, demonstrated the creativity and the vitality of a people. We who live in the land of hamburgers, hot dogs and fries can learn much by eating the foods of the world. It isn’t that one type of diet is better than the other; rather it is that each has its own

ent kind of salad the other day. “What’s that stuff?” asked a loitering moppet. I said: “It’STed cabbage. I’m shredding it for a different salad.” She said: “I don’t like it.” I said: “How the devil do you know you don’t like it if you 4 don’t even know what it is?” She said: “Are you fixing dinner instead of mom?” I said: “Yes, by the time your mother gets home from school it will be too late to get dinner started.” She said: “Couldn’t we have Colonel Sanders’?” I put on some baked potatoes. “I can’t have any. I’m on a diet.” This from a teen-age chick who is horrified because she has discovered she is six ounces overweight. As soon as I turn my back in the kitchen, we have a burglar in the cupboard. “HEY, GET OUTTA THOSE COOKIES! YOU WON’T GET ANY DINNER!” He said: “When is dinner going to be ready? I’m starving.” This kid is ALWAYS starving. Well, not always. He divides his time between playing baseball, watching TV, and starving. I said: “How do I know when dinner will be ready? Do I look like Julia Child? I just cook it. When it looks cooked, we’ll eat it.” Another son comes in. “What’s for dinner?” I said: “Salad, potatoes, and, if I’m left alone long enough, some spareribs.” He said: “Are you going to try to barbecue the spareribs again?” I said: “Yep.” He said: “Would it be okay if 1 went over to Dave’s for dinner tonight?”

distinctive taste and appeal. The same comment could be made of the cultures that our various countries represent. There is an international language that makes words meaningless. It is the language of the heart. Sometimes it is expressed in music; sometimes in art; sometimes in a laugh or a tear. A few moments ago I wrote of a time when we joined with Hollanders in a fantastic polka. Following that evening, one of our young people remarked that if the people of the world could sing and dance together they would not be able to fight one another. This may well have been the wisest observation of our entire tour. My personal hat goes off to Varner Chance of North Webster who is the organizer and director of “Sounds Os Hope.” My appreciation is also expressed to our Milford area people who were part of the group. Janet Zimmerman, Tim Sands, Jim Felkner, Bessie Sunthimer, and my wife Mary Evelyn were all vital parts of “Sounds Os Mope” ’72. “Sounds Os Hope” took its musical sounds of the human heart into 6 European nations. We now return to our homes with the knowledge that the same sound of the heart needs to throb with the melody of brotherhood in our homeland too. Monroe Township Budget Proposed At 28 Cents The proposed budget for the township of Monroe is 28 cents — up one cent from last year. The increase is the addition of a 4-H fund. The one cent levy will raise $l5O. The township’s fund remains at 27 cents. The budget is signed by Sarah J. Ringgenberg, trustee, and appears elsewhere in this issue. Mrs. Ringgenberg and her advisory board will meet on August 29 to consider the budget. LAKELAND LOCALS The Ervin Miller family of Syracuse Lake has returned from a vacation trip to Mackinaw Island. Mr. and Mrs. Larry Ryman of Milford had Sunday dinner guests of Mrs. Diane Lutz and daughter, Jane Ann of near Jimtown.
