Becky Hamilton new Jayceettes president
The Milford Jaceetts met at the home of Kathy Beer on Monday, April 25, at 7 p.m. with 13 members present and four guests. Names were exchanged and favorite flowers were named. The secretary’s report from the last meeting was read and approved. The treasurer’s report also was given at this time. MDA to hold summer comp The Muscular Dystrophy Association will hold its annual summer camp for Indiana muscular dystrophy patients June 25 through July 1. The 1983 Jerry Lewis summer camp will be held at Camp Dick Runyan in North Webster. Volunteers are needed to serve as attendants on a one-to-one basis with the patients. Some of the campers are ambulatory, however, the majority will be in wheelchairs with very limited muscular abilities. Attendants act as the arms and legs of the campers with all activities. The need is mainly for male volunteers since patients are primarily male. Any interested persons should contact MDA at (219) 422-9525. No more mice If mice are your problem, use peppermint to get rid of them; they can’t stand the smell of fresh peppermint. Put the sprigs in favorite mouse cruising spots or saturate a piece of cardboard with oil of peppermint, available at most drugstores. $75 for tomatoes In the coming weeks, storm damage and planting delays will cause supply shortages and higher costs of vegetable produce. In 1982, the average American family of four ate about 88 pounds of tomatoes and spent approximately $75 for them. It’s difficult to predict future prices, but shortages this year mean that the average cost probably will be higher. If that family instead decided to grow tomatoes, the seed, fertilizer and other items necessary to produce 88 pounds of tasty fruit would cost less than $2. Just four plants would produce enough for the family and could fit in a small, space-efficient garden or even in containers on the porch or patio. It’s easy to see that the “home-grown” family will have much lower food bills than the “store-bought’ family. In additon, they’ll have the benefits of fresher vegetables and the fun of growning them. Easy-out Place bay leaves in a tea ball for easy removal from a stew before serving. Also, skewer with a toothpick so you can spot them easily. The same applies to any other herbs, such as garlic cloves, that don’t dissolve as they cook.

LOUISA’S LETTER Dear Louisa.
My problem is this: 1 have a good many friends because 1 am interested in church work and civic projects. 1 also socialize in the community so when any of the children or grandchildren of these friends get married 1 am invited and I feel like sending gifts to all of them. The problem is that 1 am over sixty and live on a retirement amount so you can see what that does to my budget. Now lots of these grandchildren live in other states and there is no chance of me attending the wedding. Should 1 send gifts to these children? On the Go-Fla.

Answer: There is no obligation to send any gifts in answer to an invitation unless you wish to. However, if you attend a person’s wedding. 1 am sure that you would be embarrassed if you had not sent a gift. Why not settle on a simple gift and send the same thing to all of the grandchildren. If their parents have received invitations from your relatives and sent gifts to them you would, naturally, feel Obligated to return the compliment. Louisa Address: Louisa, Box 532, Orangeburg, S.
