•
SPELLING STll..L PLAYS an important role in education. Based on early
testing, students have been placed in "levels of accomplishment" at the Bradbury
School. Working with partners, they move to higher levels at their own speed.
Here, a group taught by Mrs. Sabra Morrison, is at work. Some pupils here have
moved several levels higher since the new school opened last fall.

Pictures and Story
By BOB HOEFLICH
BRADBURY
"Every Day
Something Is Being Done That
Couldn't Be Done."
This bit of philosophy on a
sign in the teachers' meeting
room of the Bradbury School
typifies
the
innovated
educational processes taking
place for the first time in Meigs
County - and at the Bradbury
School.
An ordinary elementary
school over past years, the
Bradbury building has been
converted into a very special
type school for Middleport and
Bradbury fifth and sixth
graders only. In this setting jazzed up with mod colored
desks
and
other vivid
surroundings - students are
being offered a wide range of
subject matter presented in a
different manner than in the
conventional classroom. They
are grouped in certain subject
areas so that fast students can
move along at a rapid pace and
those with difficulties can feel
the joy of achievement among

their fellow students.
There's no such thing as a
fifth grade or a sixth grade at
the innovated school. Classes
are a combination of students in
both grade levels, and informality is the key of the staff
in its hope of providing a good
learning situation for all 151
youngsters enrolled.
Schedules are flexible and
different, and grade cards are
unheard of in the new school
staffed by a group of dedicated
Meigs Local School District
teachers. They spend many
hours beyond required time
each week in planning,
discussing and working to make
this form of education - new to
Meigs County but as old as 10
years in some areas - an appealing experience.
Buses carrying children from
their homes to their new experience in education start
arriving at the Bradbury School
at 7:20a.m. each morning. The
first class gets underway at
8:05. One teacher of the school
said:
"The attitude is unbelievable.

The children burst into the
building at 7:20 in the morning
ready to go to work. This is one
of the most rewarding experiences of the new school.
These arc some of the same
children that their mothers tell
us they couldn't even get out of
bed last school year."
And - there are "very few"
discipline problems at the
school where it is apparent that
the attitude of students is excellent. The school just seems to
hum with enthusiasm, which
possibly rubs off from the
faculty and the as sis tan t
student teachers who love what
they're doing. There's a great
deal of individual attention and
students move along at their
rate of speed.
Dr. Margaret Felsinger, Ohio
University, a frequent visitor to
the Bradbury School in her role
of working with student
teachers, radiates enthusiasm
when she discusses what is
being done at the new school.
"You can tell when you walk
in the door of a school what it's

Pomeroy-Middleport

SUNDAY, JANUARY 17, 1971

RUTLAND-One teenager is dead,
another is facing charges of reckless
operation and vehicular manslaughter,
and six others suffered injuries in an autotruck collision here Friday about 7 p. m.
Jerry Napper, 16, a Meigs High School
student, son of David Napper, Rt. 4
Pomeroy, died Saturday at 4:55 p. m. in
Cabell-Huntington Hospital, Huntington of
a fractured skull and multiple other injuries.
He was in a car driven by Paul VanCooney, 16, Pomeroy, Rt. 4, which collided
nearly headon with a truck driven by Fred
A. Engle, 21, Rutland Rt. 1. Investigating
officer Deputy Sn · f Jim Soulsby said
Saturday night VanCooney would be
charged with vehicular manslaughter and
reckless operation.
Deputy Soulsby said the VanCooney car
was traveling west on Rt. 124 inside
Rutland at a high rate of speed. Engle,
driving east, apparently trying to avoid
the oncoming car, was two feet eight inches off on the right berm at the moment of
impact. The VanCooney auto was three
feet, two inches left of center at point of
impact, Soulsby said.
VanCooney's car, after hitting the left
front and bed portion of Engle's truck,
went 432 feet before catapulting over an
embankment into a yard filled with
water.
Other passengers in the VanCooney
car, who were treated and released at
Veterans Memorial Hospital, were Pat
Ross Jr., 16; Tim Ross, 15, both of Rutland,
and Paul Pullins, 15, of Middleport.
Passengers in the Engle truck were Mary

it had just three or four members. It now
has a roster of over 100.
One of his most prized possessions is a
ship's clock from the Henry C. Yeiser Jr.
which sank after hitting a bridge near
Charleston. The clock had been taken off
the boat for repairs. While it was in the
shop, the boat sank.
It is no easy task for an uninformed
landlubber to tell time by a ship's clock.
First of all, it never strikes 12 as other
clocks do. It strikes eight bells, once at 8;
again at 12 and again at 4, with each additional half-hour it adds one bell, building

Chlorine Inhaled
GALLIPOLIS - Twelve employees of
the Holzer Medical Center were treated for
slight chlorine gas inhalation Friday after 1oon following a minor fire in the
laundry and storage area at the hospital.
Gallipolis Fire Chief James A. Northup
said the employees apparently were
overcome by gas developing when water
was used to extinguish a blaze in a drum of
granular chlorine . Hospital employees
used fire extinguishers and an mtenor
stand pipe fire hose to extinguish the fire
before the local fire department arrived.
Damage was estimated at $85. It was the
fourth emergency run of the year.

GALLIPOLIS - When does a man's
love for what surrounds him begin?
Perhaps it is born with him. Such is the
case of John Foster's love for the river.
Foster, who says softly, "I'm sentimental
about old things," and even more softly,
"I've always loved the river."
Because he loves the river, he collects
objects of the river ... an old ship's clock, a
wooden steering wheel, a brass whistle, a
wooden boat sign, a brass ash tray.
Anything that speaks of a day when the
river was the hub of all activity in
Gallipolis.
''When I was a boy, after school I would
go over to the riverbank and build models
of boats from orange crates," he recalled.
He built a scale model of the John W.
Layne ferry boat that used to run between
here and Gallipolis Ferry.
Also an artist, Foster has done several
oil paintings of riverboats. They hang in
the den of his home near the river at
Kanauga.
He is a close friend of Capt. Charlie M.
Young, "Old Man River," whose memory
spans more than 50 colorful years on the
river, beginning in 1902 when he was a
cabin boy on the Robert P. Gillham, later
the Henry C. Yeiser. Foster and Young
have spent many hours talking about the
river.
Foster was one of the early Gallipolis

County Pay
May Suffer
POMEROY- The census report of 1970
may lower the salaries of recently elected
Meigs County officials, Bernard Fultz,
prosecuting attorney, disclosed Saturday.
The salaries of elected officials is
based on the population, according to Ohio
law.
Fultz stated that a preliminary report
of the population in Meigs County was
received on May 20, 1970 by the Meigs
County commissioners showing a
population of 20,341.
An official report received recently
from the Ohio Secretary of State shows tne
population of Meigs County to be 19,799 or
542 under the preliminary report.
Salaries of officials in counties under
20,000 are less than those for officials in
counties with over 20,000 under law. Affected by the change in population figures
would be Gordon Caldwell, county auditor,
and Charles R. Karr, Sr., a county commissioner. Both would have reduced
salaries even though they have just been
reelected, from what they have received
during prior terms of office. The salaries
of other officials, if the under 20,000 census
figure is correct, would be affected when
the offices are filled at elections.
Fultz stated if this report is correct,
all recently elected officials salaries will
be reduced. However, Fultz is in the
process of checking the two reports to
determine which of the two is correct.
Fultz has asked Congressman
Clarence Miller to accompany him and
three other representatives from Meigs
County to Washington to make certain all
reports are accurate. If there is an error, it
will be corrected, Fultz said.

Napper, the most seriously injured, was

Old Taxes
'Coming In
GALLIPOLIS - A program to collect
delinquent real estate taxes in Gallia
County has shown significant results the
past two months, Prosecuting Attorney
Hamlin C. King and County Treasurer Oty
M. Stewart said Saturday.
Money collected is the first revenue to
the county from this source in nearly 20
years. The last such actions were filed in
1950 by Prosecutor John Halliday.
When the current program started,
there was $104,339.84 in delinquent real
estate taxes outstanding in Gallia County.
In the last two months alone, $22,147.01
in delinquent real estate taxes has been
paid into Treasurer Stewart's office. King
and Stewart have now filed 15 tax suits.
Of these, two properties have been
sold yielding a total of $3,970.27 for the
county; four suits have been dismissed by
Prosecutor King after the landowners paid
their taxes and their court costs, and nine
suits are pending.
After real estate taxes become P".! years
delinquent, the County Auditor publishes a
list of all the delinquent taxes in the county
in the local newspaper. He then certifies
tha1list to the prosecutor for foreclosure in
the name of the County Treasurer.
The prosecutor must make a complete
tille search of each parcel of property to be
sold, a very time consuming process.
Prosecutor King said that it takes about
three hours to get every foreclosure ready
for suit.
After the suit is filed, unless the landowner pays up, the Common Pleas Judge
orders each parcel sold at public auction.
The sheriff will then sell the real estate on
the courthouse steps at public auction.
Proceeds of the sale are applied first

Dwelling Saved
MERCERVILLE - Quick action by
the Crown City Fire Department
Saturday morning saved one of the
oldest dwellings in Gallia County.
Firemen were called at 9 a.m. to the
Ronnie Sheets residence on BladenMercerville Rd., where a blaze
developed around the chimney of the 150
year old log-cabin type home. A
spokesman for the Crown City Fire
fighters said the blaze causelt approximately $75 damage to the ceiling of
the house.

Fire Takes $50,500
RUTLAND - Losses resulting from
fires covered by the Rutland Fire
Department during 1970 totaled $50,500.
The department responded to 42 calls,
an average of 12 firemen reporting for
each call. Eleven runs made were to brush
fires. Ten fire runs were made inside the
village, 16 inside the township and eight to
Salem Township and Scipio Township. The
largest loss from a single fire was at the
old Blackstone Coal Tipple. Damages at
the tipple were set at $27,000.
The Rutland Department answers all
calls in Rutland Village and Rutland
Township where a special tax levy approved by the residents pays for tJquipment. A portion of Scipio Township is
protected by the fire contract agreed upon
by the trustees and fire department. Salem
Township does not carry a fire contract
with the Rutland Department but individual farm and home owners who have
a contract with the department are
covered. The department charges the

small fee of $5 per contract tor each
property.
Besides answenng fire calls, the
Rutland Fire Department helps in other
community emergencies such as when
residents must move from flooded areas
and helping search for lost persons.
Each year, firemen during the holiday
season arrange for Santa Claus to visit and
provide candy treats for youngsters, food
baskets for the under privileged and fruit
plates for shut-ins. The department also
purchased the Christmas lights used in the
business section.
They annually put them into place and
take them down.
The department sponsors two moneymaking projects, both highly successful,
each year. These include the July 4th
celebration and the annual Thanksgiving
dinner. Firemen are assisted by their
families and interested residents with
these pro)e&lt;:~.

up to 8.
Another memento Foster cherishes is
the bell from the steamer George
Matheson with the ship's name and the
date, 1878, stamped on it. The bell gets its
mellow, clear sound from the silver of 100
silver dollars which were melted and used
in its construction. This bell was used at
the belling of the late Gus Fry's father.
Foster points to an old steam whistle
given to him by Capt. Young: "Not just
anyone can make a steam whistle talk the
way the old river men can, the way Capt.
Charlie Young can," he said.
Foster collects things other than river
items. One very special "priceless" object
he owns is a Colt 44 cap and ball that
belonged to a great grandfather who
settled in Athens in the days of oxcarts and
wagons. The colt bears 13 notches on its
walnut handle.
For years, his father, Fred Foster, ran
the Park Central. when it was the biggest
hotel on the river between Pittsburgh and
New Orleans. In the early 1900's the older
Foster owned a dairy where the Chevrolet
used car lot is now. Before that he owned
the Spring Hill dairy where Spring Valley

A stranger than fiction story that
happened in 1958 has bound John Foster's
life even more closely to the river.
The water was up that spring and hel
saw a milk can bobbing out in the current.
He decided to take a yawl and go after it.
When he pulled the can in and examined it,
he could only shake his head in mute
testimony to the strangeness of fate. The
dripping milk can bore the name "Fred
Foster." It was a voice from the past.

Estates are presently located.
One day Fred Foster saw a little kid
sitting on the curb in front of the hotel. His
clothing was ragged and he said he lived
with two aunts. Foster bought the boy
some clothes and made him a bellhop. The
kid managed to elevate his station in life in
later years and bought a home on the same
street as the hotel. His home is known as
Gatewood.
His name was 0. 0. Macintyre.

LONGEST FIRST

King and Stewart said that the first suits
being filed are against landowners who
have gone the longest without paying and
who owe the most. When the address of the
delinquent landowner is known, the
prosecutor 's office sends out just one
notice of the anticipated foreclosure. A tax
suit follows usually two weeks after the
notice.
If the delinquent taxpayer pays after
the suit has been filed, he must also pay

THIS PAST WEEK has been a week of gloomy afternoons and
alternate cold and rainy days but I have had a wonderful time.
SEVERAL GOOD THINGS happened. I renewed acquaintance with an old friend I had lost contact with, got started back to
school, and finally lost my billfold and had it returned by a very
honest lady, Gaye Green of Neighborhood Rd. (I didn't get to
meet her because I was out on assignment, so I couldn't thank her
in person. I'm thanking her now and hope sincerely that her good
deed returns one hundredfold to her.)

EDNA BORDEN BROUGHT me a dish and saved me a place
at home council Wednesday but I had forgotten it was home
council day and had made other plans for lunch. The home council
is a great organization for women who are interested in home and
the things of home. Just because you might not have the finest
clothes, or a whole lot of money (who does?), don't let that keep
you away from home council meetings. They are open to anyone
and are free.
NOW WE KNOW WHO put those attractive drums for trash
around town. We had seen them and wondered where they came
from. They look like something the "little drwnmer boy" would
play, being red white and blue. It's that working Junior Woman's
CJub again. Those gals really go to it on their projects!

LAST WEEK ON ONE of its dismal days I drove past a little
new church. It was a cold afternoon. A slight drizzle had started.
1n the large church parking lot, one small car was parked. I
recognized it as the preacher's car. That scene struck a
responsive note deep inside me. Immediately, the day became
brighter and warmer, or at least it seemed so.
In my mind, there flashed the image of hundreds of church
parking lots all over America with maybe a single car parked on
them - empty - on mid afternoon of a weekday, their drivers
inside the fragrant confines of brick, wood or stone sanctuaries
nearby having a quiet talk with their best friend.
COME TO THINK OF IT, having a quiet talk with a best
friend is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon, isn't it? Or better
yet, have a quiet talk with someone who is lonely or friendless.
Right here in our own community there are many like that. A
recent sad incident brought this home to me.

IF YOU HAVE OCCASION to visit the Washington School
principal's office you will see two outstanding floral
arrangements. Both were made by Nelle Franklin, whose name
means "blue ribbon" to any flower show competitor who has been
up against her.
It is nice of Mrs. Franklin to share her creative talents this
way. One arrangement is in Mrs. Craft's office, the other in Mr.

ANOTHER THING YOUWOULDseeat Washington School is
a mountain (well almost) of gloves, scarves, belts, hats and

While she went to check on the correct spelling, a tiny voice came

"Hello," I answered. "Who are you?"
"I'm Julia."
"Oh, I know your grandmother." I was talking to Julia Bean's
little namesake. "That happens everytime I leave the phone " her
mother said, when she came back. It was a pleasant little in~ident
and I wouldn't mind talking to Julia again. Hi, Julia!

EX-TRIPPER GETS
IT TOGETHER
Dear Helen:
Here's a different "What is
A" for you - from one who
knows:
WHAT IS
SMOKING WEED?
Smoking
weed is having
some friends say, "Have a hit,
it's really far out." And when
you finally give in, you're a
little scared that you'll be too
stoned to know what's happening. But it turns out you
don't even get mellow.
It's when you decide you want
to try it again to see what being
stoned is like, and when you DO
get high, you feel weird and
uncool.
It's when you persuade
yourself the feeling is really far
out and you start to do it more
often and pretty soon you get
stoned almost all the time.
It's when you start lying to
your parents about where

white pines, 15 red pines, 15
scotch pines, 10 Colorado blue
spruce, 10 Norway spruce, 10
white spruce, five white

and three chestnut.
A packet containing 50 crowns

mowing, chokes out weeds,

Willing To Wait
SALEM, Ore. (UPI) - The
manager of a Salem cemetery
has written the state Liquor
Control Commission urging
earlier closing time for taverns
in the hope of reducing fatalities
caused by drunken drivers.
"We well know this can only
hurt our business, but we are
very willing to wait," he said.

you're going and every chance
you get you get loaded.
It's when you get really
daring and smoke dope on the
way to school or in the
bathroom at home, or driving
on the freeway with cops buzzin'
by every five minutes.
It's when you start to pick
fights with your old lady or if
she asks you to do something
you fly off the handle right off
while she's wondering what's
got into you to make you so
mean.
It's when you have dope on
your 90 per cent of the time,
never once thinking about
getting busted because you're
always so ripped.
It's when you smoke a dube
and in the back of your head you
feel guilty because you know
how much you'd hurt your old
lady if she found out, but you go
on and do it any way because
you dig it so much.
It's when your parents find
out and you get yelled at for two
hours straight on how dope is so
bad for you, etc.
It's when, for the next two
weeks or so, you feel really
guilty and sorry every time you
look at your old lady's face.
It's being sent either to the
Hall or to a boarding school or
being on restriction for four
months, never once being alone
for more than five minutes
except at school, and knowing
that it's gonna take forever to
build the trust back.
All in all, I think getting
stoned is a real drag because
sooner or later you either start
messing with acid and
mescaline and on up to cristel
(speed) or smack, or you get
busted by your parents or the
cops, and that's the worst
feeling I know of.- EX DAYTRIPPER

Proffitt Brothers Served on Brooke
..

BY GOWIE CLENDENIN
PORTLAND - Danny and
Randy Proffitt, sons of Harold
and Eula Proffitt, have served
, brother to brother duty on the
U. S. S. Brooke. The Brooke, a
guided missile escort ship, is
the first of a new class of ships
having anti-air capability
provided by guided missiles.
Danny graduated from
• Southern Local High School in
1965, attended " Weaver Personnel Airline School," in
Kansas City, Mo., and while in
residence, was employed by
Ozark Airlines at O'Hara airport in Chicago. He was ordained into the Aaronic
priesthood of the Reorganized
Church of Christ of Latter-Day
Saints on Feb. 3, 1965 and
served in the office of deacon
while home.
The Brooke was sent into the
area off the coast of Korea when
the Pueblo was seized, Danny's
first tour of duty overseas. At
this time he visited one of his
classmates (the former Diana

t

j

Roush) and her husband in
Hawaii.
Danny completed his tour of
duty after about three years and
10 months which included two
cruises in the western Pacific.
The Brooke had a rare
"outstanding" grade for the
annual supply inspection. S.K. 3
Danny R. Proffitt was one of
four that received individual
letters of commendation for
exemplary effort. He is
presently employed at O'Hara
airport in Chicago by Ozark
Airlines as station agent.
Randy graduated from
Southern Local High in 1969. He
served as Religious Petty Of.
ficer (R.P.O.) in boot camp at
Great Lakes, and was flown
from San Deija to Keeling,
Taiwan to board the Brooke,
already on its second tour of
duty in the Tonkin Gulf and
joined his brother Danny. He is
presently serving on the Brooke
as S.K., and made the first five
on the ship's basketball team.

Alcoholism Battle Intensified
By LOUIS CASSELS
WASIDNGTON (UPI) - At
long last, the federal government is mounting a serious
attack on a disease that costs
more lives each year than the
Vietnam war: alcoholism.
Alcoholism afflicts an estimated 9 million Emericans and
causes 30,000 deaths annually .
It is responsible for 37 per cent
of all fatal highway accidents, a
statistic that resulted in
government-sponsored connerences this week on that part

of the problem alone.
The cost to industry is about
$4 billion a year in lost manhours of production.
Officials rate it the nation's
No.3 health problem, surpassed
only by cancer and heart
disease.
,
Treatment Authorized
Through the National Institutes of Health, the government
has been spending more than $1
billion a year to combat cancer,
heart disease and dozens of
other ailments.
Until now, however, only a

relatively small sum-about $10
million a year-was available
for federal support of the fight
against alcoholism.
On the last day of 1970,
President Nixon signed a bill
that had been nursed through
Congress by Sen. Harold E.

this week estimated 1970 milk

pounds of milk, up 0.6 per cent
from 1969 for the first upturn
after five years of steady declines in milk output. At the

GALLIPOUS - A Valley Bell
Milk truck was involved in a
minor accident Friday morning
on the Ohio Valley Bank
Parking Lot. According to city
t police officers, Roger D. Allen,
21, Pt. Pleasant, parked his
truck to deliver milk.
Allen said he heard a crash,
turned around and saw his truck
had struck a pillar at the
banking institute. There was
minor damage . No citation was
issued since the mishap occured
on private property.

Mental Health.
It authorizes the expenditure
of $300 million during the next
three years in federal grants to
states and private institutions
for treatment and rehabilitation
of alcoholics, and research into
the disease.
Some Enforcement Removed
At the moment, the program
exists only on paper, because
Congress adjourned without
acting on an appropriation for
the institute. It is anticipated,
however, that funds will be
provided in the first supplemental appropriation bill that clears
the new Congress. Thus the
institute should be in business
by spring.
The House made a small but
significant change in the
language of Hughes' bill. As
passed by the Senate, it would
have cut off all types of federal
aid to any general hospital
which refused to accept alcoholics as patients. This would
have provided a mighty incentive to those hospitals- nearly
two-thirds of the total- which
have resisted the pleas of the
American Medical Association
to treat alcoholics on the same
basis as other sick persons.
But the House changed a few
words, so that noncooperating
hospitals will be deprived only
of aid under the Hughes Act
itself, while continuing to
receive aid under other federal
programs.

Foreign News Commentary
Europe's calendar for 1971.
Both involve a redrawing of the economic and
diplomatic map.
British entry into the market eventually could
mean the joining of some 250 million people into
one economic unit, with an effect upon the world
so huge as to be incalculable until it actually
occurs. But it involves months of negotiations
down to the finest print with little day to day
drama.
Needs Treaty Approval
The drama lies with Brandt who on the one
hand labors to erase t.he hatreds and tensions left
by war and r eplace them with nonaggression
pacts and economic agreements, and on the
other to convince his western allies and a
suspicious opposition at home that he is
sacrificing the interc sts of neither .
As he presses forward to his next target,
Czechoslovakia, he leaves as unfinished business

behind him the question of parliamentary approval of the pacts already negotiated with the
Soviet Union and Poland, of West Germany's
future relations with its Cmnmunist counterpart
in the east and of a reduction of tensions in
Berlin.
Adding to the suspense is the razor-thin
majority his Socialist and Free Democratic
coalition holds in the West German Bundestag.
The Berlin Question
To gain agreement with Poland it was
necessary that Brandt agree to the "reality" of
the Oder-Neisse border which took from Germany her eastern territories and annexed them
to Poland .
To gain a greement with Czechoslovakia, he
will be required to denounce totally the Sept. 19,
1938, Munich agreement which enabled Adolf
Hitler to take over the Sudetenland.
Such an agreement also fits in with reality but
his Christian Democratic opposition at home
finds both ha rd to swallow.
Brandt has made fina l approval of his eastern
pacts conditional upon a relaxation of Communist pressures on West Berlin, saying he will
not even submit them to the Bundestag without
prior a greement on Berlin .

For the past 32 months the family has lived in Germany, and
they're happy, to say the least, to be back home.
They are now m the process of having their home at the
corner of Laurel and Sycamore vacated so that they can move in
the furmture which arrived from Germany Thursday. TI1eir car
was shipped last November and was at the McGmre Air Force
Base in New Jersey when they arrived.
THE MOTHERS' MARCH OF DIMES will be staged in

Sorority will be doing the "marching".
AFTER 32 WEEKS in the Ben Franklin Hospital for treatment of a tubercular condition, Bob Lehew is back home. He'll be
returning to the hospital for checkups twice a month for the next

employment.
Bob is the son of Mrs. Harry Davis, and a brother of Bill
Lehew.

By Charlene Hoeflich
POMEROY- A typical day in the life
of a school secretary is far from the
humdrum routines of typing reports and
counting lunch money.
At least it is for Mrs. Lela Curtis who
assures us that there's never a dull
moment in her office at the Pomeroy
Elementary school.
Lela fits well into the substitute
mother role so essential in the elementary
school atmosphere. She's a "natural" at
consoling a sick youngster, assisting a
distressed child, even soothing an irate
parent. Much of her experience has come
through her own daughter, Sandra Lee, a
13-year-old eighth grader.
When asked about how she likes her
job, Lela without any hesitation responded
"I love it!"
In the secretarial position for 18
months, Lela describes it as the "most
rewarding job I've ever had."
"There's something wonderful about
watching children develop", she exclaimed.
Lela believes in taking the positive
approach to about everything and has
adopted the philosophy that if things aren't
so good today, they're bound to get better
tomorrow.

MRS. LELA CURTIS

A member of the Forest Run
Methodist Church, Lela teaches a Sunday
school class, serves as a youth group
leader, and is active in the Women's
Society of Christian Service. She also
serves on the steering committee of the
girl scout troop in which her daughter is
active.
Her hobbies are sewing, reading and
gardening .

Two Quartets
~

At Songfest

)

POMEROY - Two gospel
quartets presented a musical
program at a songfest Thursday
night at the Pomeroy First
Baptist Church.
The hymn, "We Have Heard
A Joyful Sound," and prayer by
Mrs. Joseph Cook opened the
service sponsored by the
Missionary Society of the
church. Mrs. Oliver Michael,
chairman for the service, read
the lOOth Psalm.
The "Gospelaires" composed
of Anitra Doak, Janice Smith,
David Grate and Steve Grimm,
with Amy Doak at the piano
sang "Jesus is Coming Soon,"
"Thank God I Am Free," " A
Hill Called Mt. Calvary," "The
Answer Came," " Without Him"
and "Sheltered in the Arms of
God."
An instrumental and vocal
group, the Bissell quartet
composed of Naomi, Glen and
Mr. and Mrs. Roger Bissell
sang "Highway to Heaven ,"
"One Drop" and "One More
Valley." Several of the young
people gave testimonials.
Prayer by the Rev. Robert
Kuhn concluded the service.
Refreshments were served in
the church dining room by the
women. Several members of the
Chester Nazarene Church were
present for the service.

POMEROY - A familiar face was seen over the tube on the
Bob Hope special Thursday night. Hope and troop filmed a dress
~&gt; rehearsal for the cadets at West Point Academy prior to their
overseas show.
Sure enough, sitting on the front line was John Ritchhart of
Syracuse, who is in his plebe year at West Point. Those who
caught a glimpse of Ritchhart, and there were many, said he was
really enjoying the big show.

RESIDENTS OF ROSE HILL and vicinity are still plagued by
smoke and stench from the fire that smoulders at the Dark Hollow
dump. The odor when driving by the area in a car is almost unbearable. Seems as though something could be done to improve
conditions. Mter all, the fight against pollution might begin at
home.
HEARD ABOUT THE MISFORTUNE of Dick and Katie
Wells on their recent trip to Florida. The young couple and young
daughter Amy were in the process of moving, lock, stock and
harrell to the sunny south.
Everything they owned was in a U-Haul trailer which was
attached to their car. They stopped for the night at a Holiday Inn
in Tennessee. When they went to the car the next morning the UHaul had been hauled away.
The trailer was found later but with all contents removed.
Such a pity one can'ttravel without standing guard.

MRS. OSCAR BABCOCK of Tuppers Plains certainly has the
right slant on life. She has made a list of "Thoughts for the New
Year" which we could all benefit from .
"Go your way in peace. Be of good courage. Hold fast to that
which is good. Render to no man evil for evil. Strengthen the
fainthearted. Support the weak. Help and cheer the sick. Honor all
men. Love and serve the Lord. And may blessings of God be upon
vou and remain with you forever .
