Letter
Dear Editor,
I would like to clear up a
misunderstanding that you
seem to have. It concerns
your coverage on the
Jaycees’ Prayer Breakfast
and their DSA banquet.
For some reason you have
been reporting that I would
not be appearing. I don’t
know when or how you got
this information, but 1

Open Letter to Marietta
Jorough:
During January, I wit-
nessed Christianity at work
in Marietta. To combat the
problems of snow, ice,
flood waters, etc., many
volunteers worked diligent-
lv for days and nights on
end. They left family, work
and social activities to help
anyone in need. I personal-
ly observed true love, care
and concern for one
another.
With the threats of
would like to state right
now that at NO time was
there any question that I
was not going to attend
both the Prayer Breakfast
and the DSA banquet!
I enjoyed going to both
events, as planned, and
thank the Jaycees for
inviting me as their guest.
‘“Miss Mount Joy’

flooding likely to recur this
winter, it is comforting to
know that there is this
unity in our caring for our
neighbors, especially those
on Front Street.
I don’t know which
churches were represented
by the volunteers, but I'm
sure God must have been
pleased. What a grand way
to glorify the one God of us
all! Praise the Lord for His
work through the humble
People of God.

Ruth Moore is named
Woman of the Year
by Welcome Wagon Club
by Sharon Roberts
The Mount Joy Welcome
Wagon Club held its
January meeting Tuesday
the 24th at the American
Legion.
The highlight of the
evening was the honoring
of Ruth Moore as the
Welcome Wagon Woman
of the Year, for her
services to the club and the
community. Ruth moved to
the Mount Joy area after
retirement from K-Mart in
1973. She joined the
Welcome Wagon Club and
has been very active since.
She held the office of Trea-
surer, and has chaired the
Bazaar, Craft, Member-
ship, and Community Ser-
vice committees. All pro-
jects of the club are for the
benefit of the Mount Joy
community and she has
been an active participant
in them all, from teaching
crafts at the Schock Home
to rolling paint on the
Library walls. Ruth is the
kind of person who can be
depended on, and is willing
to help out whereever she
is needed.
The Mount Joy club is
proud of Ruth Moore. She
is an asset to the club and
the Mount Joy Community
and is quite deserving of
the title Welcome Wagon
Woman of the Year.
