from the church Bulletin of Sunday:
This week, if possible, write to your
Congressman, as your part in the
crusade for New World Order. Our
bishops request it, the church en-
dorses il and your pastor urges it..
Say, IN your own words, that you want
them to represent you in all possible
legislation as being opposed to ma
tlonal isolation and in favor of Amer
lca's full cooperation with all other
nations in every possible way to secure
an enduring peace. A personal letter
carries weight A three-cent stamp
may help to win the peace"

Things We All Should Like To See
Happen
Just word regarding these sug-
gestions: They are not all our opinions
Some of them we may approve, and
some not, but they are given to US to
use and as long as they remain
impersonal we shall be glad to submit
them to this column. However, we
have received several which we are
unable to use. Experience has taught
Us not to deal in personal matters.
Keep our labor at home. SO many
citizens have been forced to leave here
because they could find no work which
paid them wages commensurate with
the high cost Of living. We should like
to see some industry here which could
pick up this loose labor and keep our
family heads at home. This comes from
a citizen vitality interested in Noun
tain Lake Park as town.
A Chautauqua--if only a travelling
one.
The Mission School, with its fine
programs.
One or two business conventions
with representative commercial dele
gates
A little more advertising that goes
for all of Garrett county.
More interest manifested in our
Boy Scout troop. There are about 80
members in the troop. They must hold
their meetings in the only available
quarters-the town office room. Put
thirty boys and their scout leaders in
this small room and it's an impossi-
bility to even attempt many of the
tasks they should be instructed in.
Let's have larger quarters for them.
Beginning at Braethom The lot
across where the marker is located,
from there on down to the boardwalk,
cleaned up and brush cut, particularly
below the amphitheatre, which is most
unsightly. C. P Martin will donate
days wages for this purpose and ne is

Tuesday, We hope they know their
stuff.
