The Rotary Club endorses Chance's Sounds of Hope and sponsors the final concert of the season for the group each year. Club members also sponsor an end of season banquet for the group each year.
Chances host British visitor
Mr. and Mrs. Varner Chance of North Webster were hosts to an English visitor, Noel Bibby, through last Wednesday evening. Bibby had been with the Chances for a week and one-half before leaving Wednesday night to visit other friends in various parts of the United States. The Chances met Bibby in Cheam England on one of their European tours with the Sounds of Hope several years ago. “The group (Sounds of Hope) was organized to promote good will and better understanding among nations,” stated Chance. When considering the number of nations from which the couple has had visitors over the years it seems to be doing just that. The Chances have had visitors from Austria, Germany, France, Japan, Singapore. Africa and of course, England. Chance, who is the director of the group, and his wife, who acts as his right hand on tour, explained that they met Bibby while staying in his home during a tour. The Chances believe that these home stays (overseas families housing group members during tours) are an important part of the group's efforts. Says Chance,
LOUISA’S LETTER
Dear Louisa, 1 married an elderly man-I’m not much younger myself-and he has been in poor health for about a year. 1 had a small income when 1 got married and nothing was said about finances but 1 knew that he had made a will leaving .everything to his two daughters. They are both . married to fine men and are well off. Well, I have had to work hard this year as my husband did not want a nurse in the house. 1 did not mind as I am very fond of my husband but under the circumstances don’t you think he should change his will as 1 will have very little after he is gone? He owns his house and has stocks and bonds and a big insurance policy. Second Wife-Wis. Answer: It would be best for him to give you some bonds before he dies or make provisions in his will that will provide you with a modest income. A woman as devoted as you seem to be should

“Home stays build friendships like the one with Mr. Bibby.” While with the Chances, Noel Bibby attended the Sounds of Hope yearly reunion in Muncie. Chance related that Bibby was impressed with the warmth and friendliness of the people at the reunion and the distances people traveled to get there. Infact, when Bibby planned his trip he had decided to see the Grand Canyon which he had heard much about. When he arrived, however, he realized it would be impossible due to the distance he would have had to travel tp get there. Bibby also noted the differences between America’s and England’s farmlands, while visiting the countryside. He enjoyed riding a corn combine during his visit as well. This year’s tour season for the Sounds of Hope will begin with rehearsal on June 16,17 and part of the 18. On the 18th the group will depart from Chicago and begin the concert tour. They will be traveling through Holland, Germany, Austria, Liechtenstein, Switzerland, France, England and Belgium during the 1984 season.
certainly receive some consideration from your husband. Louisa. Dear Louisa. All of our family get along fine together except one brother, and no matter who he visits he always ends up in an argument with them. He seems to think that someone is always trying to pull something over on him, whereas the opposite is true, as we have all given in to him on various occasions. What can we do to make him see things as they really are? Sister-R.l. Answer: It may be that he has been using that method to get what he wanted ever since he was a baby. He found that it worked then by crying or having a tantrum, and is still using it. He may be getting what he wants for the present, but unfortunately he is losing more than he gains by such methods.
