LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

in the same direction we would
have had a celebration that would
have made our town outstanding
in the state.
Too often, yes 99gs of the time.
we seek excuses at the needed
time and think that our generous
or nominal financial support will
take the place of time we could
give. This is not true, because, the
spirit of the occasion is gained
only thru the giving of ones tai
ents as well as means.
May we who would belittle, first
ask ourselves, what did ] do to
help?

(NoTE) We sincerely thank
Mr.. Jenkinson for his kind words.
Factuaily, we have no regrets

so popular in the community. II
is depiorahle that some of our
citizens see fit to find fault all
though they offer no aid or So

put forth. London has been asleep
