Today we hear much about
racism and we’re told not to be
prejudiced and not to
discriminate.
Over 25 years ago, two of us
were sent to a Recreation School
in Vermont to learn how to
square dance and also how to
teach After an all-day bus ride
from New York City we found
ourselves late at night deposited
among a conglomeration of other
students In our group we had
white and black, Chinese and
Jews, high morals and low.
After one week my companion
decided to leave for Lancaster
County He had enough of this
“kooky” bunch. I got to know a
very nice negro girl named
Pearl The Chinese boy was
discovered to have a wonderful
sense of humor and the Jewish
couple had true dedication as
they told of their plans to move
with their children to Israel.

Milk prices influence the size of your milk check. So does
the amount of milk you sell. The Purina Dairy Program
promises to help dairymen get lots of milk to sell.
It’sjustgood common sense to feed yourcowsthe Purina
dairy Chow that best fits your herd and your roughage.
More milk from the same cows can make your milk check
grow bigger and bigger. Keeps down the overhead ex
pense of adding more cows.
Feed Purina Dairy Chows . . . complete or concentrates.
They are backed by Purina Research and proven by
leading dairymen in this area. Ask us for details of the
Purina Dairy Program. It's designed to help produce big
milk checks.

Only as we really get to know
people do we lose our prejudices
and realize that they have the
same problems, the same hopes,
and the same aspirations as we
do.

Sometimes it seems as though
we do things backwards. My
daughter, who has had her own
car for several years now, tells
me she intends to get a bicycle. In
years past the car was purchased
after the bicycle
Older folk like to tell of the
miles they walked to school.
Even I remember walking from
Neffsville to Oregon as a pre
school youth It had the nearest
trolley to Lititz Springs Park and
we certainly did not intend to
miss our Sunday School picnic
all those races to be run and those
goodies to eat
More and more families are
