Easter they have the services IN
the Municipal Auditorium It's
lovely service and the choir is just
always above average. Each Easter
the choir sings the Hallelujah
Chorus and it would thrill even an
atheist.
After church we had our dinner.
Why does every one traditionally
have ham at Easter? We did, but
why, other than they are on sale
this time of the year. Hayes says
it's hog killing time" and that's
why there is such a surplus. With
our ham we had potato salad and
wedges of tomatoes, on lettuce
with a big scoop of salad dressing
on top. Mixed in the salad dressing
were strips of green pepper. small
pieces of celery and cucumbers--
it's go good. Try it.
In the afternoon we were invited
next door to meet Colonel and Mrs.
Carl Smiths weekend guests, their
nephew and his wife. Colonel and
Mrs. Smith have travelled all over
the world with the Army and they
are most interesting. Their house
is filled with lovely silver from
England, chairs covered in bro
cades from Japan, brass from Af-
rica and India, crystal from the
Scandinavian countries, linens
from the Pacific--its just fantastic.
In the evening we were invited
to have dessert with other neigh
bors of ours. So you see we had a
very full day.
The children in the late. after
noon enjoyed an egg hunt in the

but at least it wasn't raining.
Well, It's time now for me TO get
back to my Monday chores. Hope
you all had nice yesterday, too.

the possibility of solution on Quemoy and Matsu-

The reason, Robertson says, is that no solution

Dear Friends:
It's always fun TO give parties
and Hayes and / enjoy entertaining
friends, but its always fun to be at
home when your parents are get
ting ready for a big dinner party
and over night guests. That's what
is happening at 408 Lakeview Ave-
nue., Milford, Delaware, this morn
ing.
1t kinda gives you a warm feel
ing to know you're participating in
a family gathering. OF course, not
all people feel this way, but we are
fortunate in having a close family
and we enjoy each other. Tomor-
row is my Dads 10th birthday and
the clan is gathering for this event.
My dads relatives are relatively
few and it makes the occasion real
special to have one of his cousins
arrive for the festivities. Mrs. AL
bert Wasell (nee. Betty Alden) is
travelling this morning with her
hubby from her home in Norris
vile, Pa, to Sussex County to see
Papa and have turkey dinner with
all my kin folk Just kills me to
miss all the fun, but I'll make up
for it in July and August.
We had a nice Easter day here
yesterday, but such a long one!
Leslie's waking hour these days is
five A. M. No deviation whats0-
ever. It's always five A. M. when
we start our day together. Her g.
and 11-year-old sisters were an
xious to see their Easter baskets
and they too arose at this early
hour. It's a quiet time to read the
morning paper and often just stay
up and have my coffee and read in
solitude.
After the sun had been up a
couple of hours we had hot cakes
and sausage. The bigger girls knew
weeks in advance what they would
