With anything less, he should
refuse to put up.
It is a sad commentary on the
literary world today that funda-
mantal rules of grammar are
laughed at. This is the age of
skepticism when there's little
left to cling to!
Fortunately, however, there
are a few puriSts in the writing
and speaking arts who refuse to
cut corners and whose work can
be depended on.
YES, Mr.. Critic, you may go
right on pointing out our errors
if you want to. However, we al
ways Judge criticism by the Spir-

you continue to commit such
grevious grammatical errors, such
as using a proposition to end a

tbs direction will be shrugged
off.
You may go right on ending
your sentences with propositions
if you want to. But don't try to
influence other witerS, who to
such a fragrant violation of rules
of grammar will never give into!

Writer Likes ChardonS s
winter Wonderland

year, not only for the lovely
landscape pictures, but because
it gives them an opportunity to
really study the structure of
trees. Those black fingers,
reaching out or upward, have a
story to tell about their owner,
and of course are a striking con
traSt against the white snow or
the deep blue of a winter sky,
Also, it is wonderful to see
the children go out and ski, to-
boggan or Sno-coaSter and come
in with a flush to their cheeks
and a light in their eyes, plus
an appitite, that only a winter
day can give. In the city, there
was none of this and one had
the feelig that the SNOW was al
most too dirty for the children
to play in.
Winter, being a part of the
weather, naturally affects folks
in different ways. For instance
some people feel like putting on
skates and go out and jump ov-
er a few barrels, and others
may feel that there is nothing
but drudgery connected with
snow. AS I read in a paper,
there is always a bright side,
you don't have to rake, NOV or
trim Snowl
This makes me think of my
brother-in-law, Paul, who is a
realiSt, if there ever was one.
am constantly calling OF h e r
folks attention to the sunset.
This summer, while he was visit
ing with us, there was a particu-
larly beautiful one and men,
toned it to him. His only COM
ment was "Uh huh. However,
the first Sunday of January, this
year, he drove out to our place
and mentioned how beautiful the
scenery was with everything so
white and clean.
1 think back on those days in
Cleveland when winter time
meant nothing but dreary days,
and / feel sorry for all of my
friends there who do not see
the wonders of winter that folks
in the country take for granted.
Even after Shoveling some 800
feet Of driveway, 1 still think
winter is wonderful!

Mr.. John Gore, Editor
Geauga Record
Chardon, Ohio
Dear Sir:
/ write this in anger, after
hearing a speech by Thomas A.
Dooley, MD, the young u. S.
Navy lieutenant, who supervis-
ed the evacuation of Wet Nam
and returned later with three
young Navy blue jackets to set
up a hospital and clinic in Laos,
on the border of Red China.
No person in these United
States could square the story of
starvation and need in the be-
nighted countries of the world
with the casual attitude of our
government, the Farm organi-
cations and the farm magazine
editors in approving the forced
removal of farmers from their
land here in the United States.
In the face of increasing un-
employment and recession in
this country, how can we ap-
prove the continued dumping of
tax billions into mile-long-rail-
road stations, fancy housing
projects, and equally farfetch-
ed foreign ad projects?
Wouldn't it make more sense
for our government to encour-
age full production on every inch
of arabic land in America to pro-
duce the food which Uncle Sam
could buy from the farmers and
deliver to these ASiatic and At
rican people on person to per-
son basis? The millions: of farm
ers would keep the tax dollar
at home where their purchases
of machinery, clothing and sup
plies would help oil the wheels
of production. 1t is becoming
more and more apparent that
the foreign aid program is a
huge crap bag run almost en-
tirely for bureaucratS, petty po-
tentateS and grating politicians
of what ever nation.
1t is time you and your fellow
farm advocates took a good hard
look at the measures you have
supported. The only answer to
the Red threat is a strong farm
and industrial economy at home.
We can insure this with full pro-
duction, with the produce of our
farms and factories finding their
way into the hands Of the people.
A sack of flour is a mightier ar
gument for starving man than
the finest gold plated bath room
in the house Of some petty poll
tician.
Very truly yours,

CRITICS are not to be laughed

CRITICS are not to be laughed
at.
If it were not for our critics
to keep us on the right road,
many of us would stray far off.
In the newspaper business, as
much, if not more than in any
other profession, critics are al
ways around.
In fact, in the mail just the
other day we received an un-
signed note, and our grammar
was what the writer spoke of
He said we used plural pronounS
with singular subjects, and just
generally condemned us for the
grammatical mess we got our
selves into.
The note was neatly typewrit-
ten, and the writer was very
careful to leave no traces which
we could identify him by. We
could tell by the postmark, how
ever, that Chardon was where
the note was mailed from.
However, our critic did make
one drastic grammatical error
himself-he used a proposition
to end a sentence with. l feel
there is no more uncouth viola
ton of the rules of grammar
than using a proposition to end
a sentence with, and 1 can't see
why any writer would ever want
to.
In comparison, our use of plu-
raj subjects and singular pro-
nounS-or was it singular SUBJ
jects and plural pronouns?-is
really nothing to get excited a.
bout.
PROPOSITIONS always are
supposed to govern other words,
called their relatives" and on
ly the LATEST writer should find
it difficult TO arrange his words
so that the relative is last and
the proposition is before.
Sometimes, with all the belit-
ting of the old tried and stand
ard rules, we wonder what mo-
dern composition is coming to.
Instead of polishing their sem
tenceS, as did the old masters
of the language, many of today'S
writer's sit down and simply
dash something off.
Propositions are left dangling
naked at the end of sentences,
and you can't tell where they're
going to or where they came
from. These unclad words, tied
onto nothing, appear about to
take off.
In the speaking art, too, con-
formity with standard rules of
grammar should be striven af-
ter. Here, errors are easier to
fall into. A person who wishes to
leave a good impression with
his listeners should use the very

Dear Mr.. Gore:
Wehn We moved to Chardon
one year ago last June, we re-
ceived the Geauga Record as a
gift. We have renewed our SUBJ
Scription and I look forward to
each Thursday when t arrives
by mail. The paper has given
me an opportunity to learn about
the community and the people
who make up this community.
I always read your little edi.
torials, and this week being NO
exception, was impressed with
your 'Sno Joke The article
which I am enclosing seems
very timely.
AS a word of explanation as to
how this article came about: ]
am a member of the Mentor
Club of the International Toast
mistress Clubs. On Jan. 20, al
our installation dinner, three OF
us were to give talks (brief) on
the Wonders of Winter. I chose
as my subject a comparison of
winter in the city and winter in
the country. The talk was we'll
received, and l might add that
We had two members of the
Cleveland Club present at this
meeting.

Frankly, I had forgotten that
there were any beautiful wond-
ers to be associated with win
ter. Thirteen winters in Cleve-
lands busiest and I might add
about the dirtiest part of the
East Side, made me forget all
the beauties of winter that l had
experienced in my childhood. In
the City, the first though was to
clear the walks and the drive
and almost as soon as this was
done the SCOT would come fall
ing down as large grains of
black pepper in a bowl of fluffy
white potatoes. Black SluSh and
water covered the streets as the
traffic chewed its way through.
Walking was risky, as usually
you came home with stockings
or SlackS Splashed from the calf
to derierre. In a few days every
thing took on a gray look-truly
it seemed as though the houses
and buildings all had the gray
sickness.
Came the beautiful June day
we moved into Geauga County.
Pennsylvania being my native
home, 1 fell in love with the
hills and trees about us. Summer
was lovely and the fall was a
riot of color.
1 shall never forget my first
winter. When that first snow fell
it seemed / just couldn't get
enough of it, Every view was a
fairyland of shining white crys-
tails. Even being showed in at
Festival time didn't taint this
lovely feeling! I have appreciat-
ed the beauties of nature more
than ever before. The exotic sun
sets, the moonlit nights, when
the world lies so still beneath
this white blanket of snow, all
make me realize that God is
in His Heaven, and all is right
with the world!
