, We didn’t originally plan to
make up the front page this way,
But yesterday the cockles of our heart were warmed when we began
to receive a very heavy mail from the young people of this com-
munity, By nightfall we were swamped with letters.
As we read each letter with delight and a great deal of interest,
we came to the conclusion that there is nothing much wrong with
this younger generation that it can’t correct itself. We think you'll.
agree with us after you have read their letters,
And as for us of an older generation we’ are proud to pass the
responsibilities of leadership on to strong young hearts and minds,
Nothing pleases an editor more than letters from his readers
whether they agree with him or not but letters from young folk are
doubly appreciated. We think that their parents, their teachers and
the eemmunity have a right to be proud that these students are
using the press to express their opinions on what is right and what
is wrong with their community,
We hope they will continue to do this throughout long and use-
ful lifetimes whereever they are and whatever the issue.

PROUD OF THE KEY CLUB
Dear Mr, Risley:
In the Dallas Senior High School
there is a group of fine energetic
boys who make up the Key Club
Drill Team, This coming year be-
cause of their excellent perform-
ances in some of the parades in
which they participated this past
summer of 1961, these boys will
have the opportunity to travel to
Denver, Colorado, to perform at the
National Kiwanis Convention. As a
student at the Dallas Senior High
School I think this achievement de-
serves a great deal of recognition
by our community, These boys have
worked hard this past year and are
looking forward to this trip with
great anticipation,
I sincerely hope that everyone
will help the Key Club and support
their fund-raising projects, Speak-
ing of projects the Key Club would
appreciate the whole community
supporting ‘their next one, a pan-
cake festival to be held on May 5.
Since these boys will be representa-
tives of our area I think we should
do everything possible to help them
achieve their goal,
Sincerely yours, {

WE NEED ADULT HELP
Dear Mr. Risley:
As a teenager of Dallas, I feel
that this town sorely needs a center
of recreation for its youth.
In Dallas we have a library which
is open two mights a week, a res-
taurant, and a bowling alley, which
most of my friends and I can’t
afford very often. We don’t even
have a theater, and to see a movie
in Wilkes-Barre we have to spend
There is a drive-in in the summer,
but, as yet, we sophomores can’t
drive.
The teens in Dallas would greatly

the adults of the town. These
adults would have my support and
that of my friends, if they showed
an interest in helping us. Thank You.
Sincerely yours,
Peggy Farrar,
