NEW NEIGHBORS
We are to have a new neighbor
over on Carverton Heights before
long. The house is being built now
by Henry Novak on Valley View
Drive. It is to be one of the largest
houses in that development and the
family will need it.
-Dr. and Mrs. Charles Gelb and
family of 53 Nafus Street, Pittston,
are to be the new residents. We
Gilberts think a great deal of these
people and ‘will be glad for them to
. be living in this choice residential

section. “The edge of his. property
borders the land being proposed for
the new State Park and the large
picture windows ‘command a pano-
rama of the hills and valleys.
Besides Dr. and Mrs. Gelb are Mrs.
Gelb’s aunt, Mrs. Horace Crosby,
and the children William, Ernest
and Charlotte. There is never a dull
moment where these children are.
I used to tell them Twinkling Twin-
sy stories down in Pittston church.
CHRISTMAS IN THE AIR
Christmas is in the air. The Kings
Crusaders of Mt. Zion met the other
night and planned their Christmas
party to be held at Orange at 6,
December 18. A word to the wise,
Crusaders—have your reservations
in the hands of Marie LaBar by
Monday. Those present were: Mae
Lewis, Emma Miles, Jane Lloyd,
Madge Smith, Ida Howell, Marie
Shafer, Alice Daniels, Marian Thom-
as, Thelma George, Peggy Thomas,
Jean Earl, Mildred Krum, Janet
Dymond, Jean Emanuel, Jean Hron-
ich, and Catherine Gilbert.
Speaking of Christmas parties,
the Mary Lewis Bible class will be
holding its annual celebration Wed-
nesday.
AMBULANCE DRIVE
PROGRESSING
Mt. Zion people will be glad
to know that the Franklin-
Northmoreland Township Am-
bulance drive is progressing
nicely, with people responding
well. The complete report will
be published when the drive is
finished. Many of our Mt. Zion
people live in Franklin Town-
ship and all of our community
‘is interested in this worthwhile
project.
I BAPTIZED THIS BOY
We were delighted with a visit
from Harold Farr the other day. I
was his pastor ‘up at Russell Hill
when he was growing up. His
mother, Vangie Farr, still lives up
there. I baptized this “boy”. It
seems to me he was always a huge
fellow even back there. During the
war he used to “fly the hump”. Now
he lives in Massachusetts. He flies
jet tankers, refueling bombers up
near the Arctic circle at 30,000 feet
up. My imagination tears loose
from its moorings when I try to
picture a bomber needing gas, side-
ling up to—or under—an aerial
filling station, the pilot sticking his
head out the window and shouting
to Harold, Fill “'er up, Buddy!”
Probably isn’t quite that way!
THE SCARLET TANAGER
I went down the road to our
neighbors the Richard King family.
Dick’s mother lives over at Meeker,
and Joan’s folks live next door, are
the Theron Lamoreaux. ‘Hello,
Rickey, how are you?” ‘Fine’, says
Rickey, and little sister, Janice,
beams nearby. Rickey’s daddy built
them a tree house near the garage.
There are about 8 rungs to the
ladder. The platform is safely en-
closed with a stout railing. Rickey
goes up and Janice up, too. There
used to be a puppy who knew how
to paw up the ladder part way.
Rickey told me what he sees when
he is up in that tree house, for I
have wondered. Yes, of course he
sees more trees; it is in the edge of
the woods. But there are birds, and
th first he mentioned is the ‘red
bird”, the cardinal. Also the scarlet
tanager. There have been tanagers
down in that neighborhood for many
years. Wish some would nest up
this way. Yes, there is often a
gray squirrel. There was a big gray
hornets” nest on a near limb.
Rickey didn’t play with that, but
after cold weather came it was taken
down and he took it to school for
his teacher to see. . The children
have pet rabbits, Blacky and Whitey.
Rickey and Janice now have a baby
brother they are helping bring up—
Raymond Wayne King.

glad to have David {Scull and Louis
Bell with them. The anthem, very
well sung, was ‘Arise, Shine, for
Thy Light is Come,” followed by
our minister's sermon on “The Glory
of God”, with emphasis on God
as light.
One of‘the nicest things hap-
pened to me as I was leaving
church. Mark VanTuyle, Jack
and Emily’s youngest, said, “I
liked what you wrote about me
at Hallowe’en.” He was one, of
the Hallowe’eners I mentioned
in this column. A youngster’s
appreciation is worth a lot!
At least 15 of our people attended
the Bach program at St. Stephens.
We at Dunmovin have been hear-
ing patches and snatches from that
Oratorio as our Catherine rehearsed
her parts. Sunday it .came on all
together with chorus and orchest-
ra. Magnificient! I feel a sermon
coming on, stop me! But ask me
sometime what I was going to say.
Minutes Were Longer Then
Great-grandmother Roseanna’s
clock got its face washed and looks
right perky. Beautiful old face.
Great-great-granddaughter Cathy
did it. I got me some fish line and
strung up the weights to make
those wooden wheels turn. Black
walnut wheels. Dr. Stroh says they
made clock works of wood on ac-
count of the metal shortage during
War of 1812. Also told me not to
use oil on the wood bearings; suet
instead. I did. I'm trying to coax it
to run. Have pushed the pendalum
a number of times and said, “Go,
man, Go!” Clock looks down at me:
