Dear Editor:
Speaking for the firemen, ambu-
| lance: crew, civic leaders and others,
| Noxen is losing a true friend when
| your managing: editor leaves his
pest this week. We: say, sometimes,
| out here that it takes about twenty
| years to become a native of Noxen,
i but it took 6 Leighton only a few
| visits to be completely accepted.
| The “little: red bug” was always
eyed with instant theughts that a
little. cheer would be exchanged
when he chose a place to stop for
| conver:ation. or business. Most of
| all; the folks will miss the cenfidant
| who could be trusted with all the
| facts in a controversy. I never knew
him to be indiscreet with them.
If Leighton has gone (to Mex-
ico?) before this is received, please
convey our thoughts to him. We
wish him well in his educational
pursuits, We'll bet on his being an
even greater asset to society with
a top seeurity risk clearance.
Sincerely,
David D. Fritz
SO, IT'S DISGUSTINB
Editor:
It's disgusting. We now have in
| our Township a nice new park. It
| will. soon become known all over
| the State as Frances Slocum Park,
| which: my brother William J. Rob-
| bins named, and it will add to our
| Township's beauty and a supply of
| water if needed . /
But already some people have
found a place to throw their
garbage.
Is this fair? I wonder who could
be so stupid. I am of the opinion
that it is not anyone intelligent,
but they say ignorance is bliss.
| “I wonder what the reaction
| would be if these same people found
| trash on their lawns. We all as
| tax-payers hold a share in the Park.
| Let's all protect our investment.
