'Housewarming' planned for Byrer Manor home

Area residents will have their first look at the new Kosciusko County group home for girls next month during a special “Housewarming” for Byrer Manpr. Residents and representatives from local organizations may attend the housewarming, to be held at the Shrine Building at the Kosciusko County Fairgrounds in Warsaw on Sunday, March 22, and take a gift to be used in the new facility. Although the housewarming will be held at the fairgrounds in Warsaw, tours to the rural Etna Green facility, which is 60 percent renovated, will be available. Byrer Manor is slated to open this summer and will provide residential foster care for girls, ages 10 to 18, who are in need of a structured and caring environment. “These girls could be abused, neglected, or predelinquent,” says Susan Baars, project coordinator at Byrer Manor. “It will also be a home for girls who might otherwise have been sent away to state correctional institutions — at tremendous taxpayer expense, with little

chance of successful rehabilitation.” The home is the result of the dream of the late Lawrence F. and Blanche Byrer, who wanted to provide a home for girls on their 200-acre farm. When Mrs. Byrer died in December, 1983, she specified the property be used for that purpose. The Byrers’ estate (Mr. Byrer died in the late 19405) has laid the foundation for the new facility. It is slated to open this stumper and will be operated by New Frontiers, Inc., the not-for-profit corporation which has successfully operated Riverwood Ranch, west of Warsaw, since 1971. The family home is being renovated to accommodate 10 girls and a set of full time houseparents. Much of the work is being done by local contractors, according to Baars. Nick Laurino of Triple N Construction, Warsaw, is the general contractor. Paula Tom of the Decorating Den, Leesburg, has provided the wallpaper and is donating her decorating services.

All classes will be held at the Calvary United Methodist Church in Syracuse on Thursday mornings, starting February 5, and going until graduation on March 12. Coffee and visiting time will be from 9 to 9:30 a.m., and class time will be 9:30 to 11 a.m. The classes are sponsored by the Kosciusko County Extension Homemakers, Kosciusko County Extension Service and Purdue University. Class information will include favorite recipes and demonstrations, menu planning, grocery shopping, foods, clothing, family record keeping and other timely homemaker topics. Classes are also excellent for

“Our operating budget will be $150,000, and that will stay in the county,” noted Baars. “We’d like to use local businesses in furnishing the home. ” For that reason, the Manor is “registered” at various local stores. Needed items have been selected and set aside. Area residents may visit these stores, make their purchases, and take the item to the housewarming on March 22. Since the items are being purchased for the non-profit organizations, donors will have the benefit ora tax-exempt purchase, plus may receive a receipt from Byrer Manor for the gift. Several area businesses are currently participating in the project, with others planning to become involved in the near future. Among the needed items are washers and dryers, dining room tables, dining room chairs, living room sofa, chairs and lamps, coffee table, craft tables, freezers, refrigerators, dishwasher, sewing machines, small kitchen appliances, and a television set. Miscellaneous items include dishes, glasses, silverware, pots and pans, kitchen utensils, linens, games and garden tools. While the housewarming is the glance at the new facility, there will be other opportunities for area residents to see Byrer Manor. An open house will be scheduled once the home is completed. Baars will also be available to speak to service clubs or talk with interested individuals.

LOUISA'S LETTER

Dear Louisa, I am in love with a young man who has been married once but who has divorced his wife. We love each other dearly and we want to get married as soon as we can. But my grandfather thinks that I shouldn’t marry this young man and he says if I marry him he doesn’t want me around anymore. I think I know what I am doing for I have been going with this young man for four years and every time he speaks of marriage I tell him to wait, but now he says he can’t wait any longer. Must I go over my grandfather’s permission and marry this young man who I love very much? R.L.-Ga. Answer: It would be impossible for me to tell you what to do as there are

so many factors to be considered in your case. How old are you and are you living with your grandfather? Have you finished school? What kind of character has this young man and why did he get a divorce from his wife? Was she to blame or was he? Were you going with him before his divorce? All these things have to be taken into consideration —for while the one fact that a man is divorced should not condemn him as a matrimonial prospect it does make a woman hesitate about accepting him until she finds out the cause of his divorce. A man who has failed as a husband once has one strike against him so it would be well to consider all of these things before you take the final step.
