The first two are celebration of the birthdays of two of America’s great- est founders. February 22, when we celebrate the birthday of the found- er of our country, George Washing- ton; and February 12, when we copraie the birthday of another great founder — my mother — who founded me. | Also during February we cele-| brate one of the most exciting holi- days of the year, St. Valentine's Day. This is the one day of the year when you send a touching little card to your lover(s) telling of your undying love and affection. It's quite interesting to note how | your undying love and affection | changes from person to person from | year to year. ; | The meaning of Valentine's Day changes, as does the meaning of Christmas, as a person matures. On | the elementary school level, Valen- tine's Day doesn’t seem to have as great. a significance as it does when one is older. For example, in grade school one sends Valentines to all of one’s classmates. Guys even send them to other guys, and girls send them to other girls (this habit, | however, is frowned upon when one reaches the high school and col- lege level). There is only one valen- | tine. ‘which has a particularly great amount of significance to you dur- ing the’ grade school era, and that is: the one you send to your only tr ve -- your teacher. The big- gest event of the day is the class. ‘party you have, at which time you devour thirty-five thousand heart- | s d candies with quaint little saying on them. like “I love you struly”, or “Kiss me’. This makes you feel good all over (unless, of coursie you are a diabetic). | On the high school level, valen- tines are sent only to the person with whom you happen to be going { Due to the variability of this situa- | tion, walentines are not usually | purchased by high school students | until February 13th. On the college level, however, | set. letter of verification from his moth- er. Now if you want to add a little excitement to the occasion, you might try sending your girl(s) val- entines signed. ‘Love always, Me.” Then when they tell you sweetly that they received your valentine, | look at them strangely and say, “What valentine ?”” They never get over it. Usually. So as you can see, Valentine's Day has an interesting and import- ant influence on personality and character development. It's an es- pecially important day in my life this year.

The only years in | which the 1966 figure was exceeded were 1924, when 929 were taken; 1926, when hunters bagged 660; and 1930, when 707 were harvested. | Game Commission Executive Di- , rector Glenn L.

Concluding, Bowers said, “While the harvest was rather high, there is nothing to indicate that the bear popullation has been endangered by: hunting pressure. We are convinced that we still have a sizable bear population.” Phil Heycock Finishes Navy Basic Training Seaman Recruit Philip W.
