The Kingston Township Board of
Supervisors wish to remind town-
ship residents that the township has
an ordinance which exonorates indi-
viduals who have a gross income of
less than $5,000 per year.
Individuals who are eligible for
this exonoration are required to file
an exonoration application with the
township secretary before January
15 of each year. Each request for
exonoration will be reviewed by the
Board of Supervisors who will either
approve or disapprove the applica-
tion for exonoration at a regular
meeting of the Board.
High school graduates of 1985 will
be assessed in the 1986 Per Capita
Tax levy. Students, depending upon
their income, may also choose to
file for an exonoration.
The ‘‘Age 65°’ exonoration is
available to all residents who will
turn 65 during 1986, by furnishing
proof of age to the Tax Collector
and filing the proper exonoration
form with the township office.
Residents having any questions
are asked to contact Janice Castel-
lani, Tax Collector at the Township
Building, Monday, Wednesday or
Friday from 10 am. to 2 p.m. at
696-3809.

Business
of their annual business in Decem-
ber. She said business this year was
the same or slightly better than in
1984. Most people this year were
interested in the moderately priced
items. Approximately 75 percent of
the customers were persons loyal to
the store for years, the other 25
percent new faces. ~
Mrs. Roth, her husband and son
work in the store year-round and
she said their part-time employees
were the same as in 1984. She has
mixed emotions about what 1986 will
bring.
“I can’t begin to predict what our
business might be,” she said. “I
just hope it stays the same. The
state of economy in the country is
no longer an indicator of what the
future will bring, according to Mrs.
Roth.
Two restaurant owners surveyed
were encouraged by their business
in 1985.
“Our business was the best it has
ever been with the exception of the
first part of December,” said Tom
Pickett of Pickett’s Charge, Dallas.
“We had to increase our staff and
now have 32 employees working at
the restaurant.”
Pickett is not sure what helped his
business, but he believes his new
sign, cutting down the huge trees
around the building made his busi-
ness more visible to the public.
Those changes plus inside renova-
tions attracted customers, in Pick-
ett’s opinion. He also lowered his
breakfast price which brings in a lot

Mats, Tunnels,
i
of customers, who later return for
lunch or dinner.
He has made several changes in
his menu and Pickett believes 1986
will be a better year than 1985.
Sid Silver of The White Horse
Restaurant in Dallas Shopping
Center said that 1985 was an excel-
lent year for his business. He
believes there are more people in
the Back Mountain and the fact that
his chefs prepare all of their own
food is catching on.
“We must be doing something
right,” said Silver. ‘Because our
customers keep coming back. I hope
1986 eontinues to improve.”
John Ginochetti of Gino’s Shoe
Store said his 1985 sales were about
the same as 1984. He said people are
putting their money into the elec-
tronic items and buying less in the
shoe and clothing line.
“Competition is so keen that
although the volume is great, the
net profit is much less. I managed
to retain the same number of staff
members, but at greater expense,”
said Ginochetti.
He expects 1986 to be worse due to
imports and more and more dis-
count stores: ‘“They’re hurting the
shoe and garment business,” said
Ginochetti.
Melba Boudreaux, owner of
Melba’s Fashion Nook, in business
since September, 1983, said her
sales in 1985 were close to those in
1984.
“At least 75 percent of my cus-
tomers are returnees, the others

new people who have heard about
the shop and come in looking for
something different,” she said.
Boudreaux added that holiday
sales appear to be about the same
with the same customers coming
back looking for special gift items.
Mrs. Boudreaux is hoping the
increasing requests she is receiving
for fashion shows by various
groups, will be a factor in increased
business in 1986. As she "did last
year, she has to add a part-time
employee for the holiday season.
Adam Hozempa, Jr., who with his
father, Adam, Sr., owns and oper-
ates Adam’s Clothes, Back Moun-
tain Shopping Center, Shavertown,
said business was off a little in 1985.
He believes the warm weather in
the-Fall hurt Fall sales.
‘People aren’t interested in
buying sweaters and heavy jackets
when the weather is warm,” said
Hozempa.
Hozempa also said holiday sales
were down from 1984.
