March 14, 1979 this winter. Alice Myers with a few of the 25 dresses she sewed 175 size 4’s Alice Myers sews dresses Mrs. Alice Myers, of RD1 Mount Joy, sewed 175 dresses this winter, all size fours. Every winter Mrs. Alice Myers of RD1 Mount Joy sews 25 size four dresses and gives them to the First Methodist Church in Mari- etta for their ingathering. She has been doing this since she retired as a Donegal school teacher seven years ago, which means she has sewn 175 dresses alltogether. No two have been made quite alike. Mrs. Myers started teaching in a one-room school near Conestoga, later taught at Warwick where she taught six grades, and moved here to teach in the former Florin School. When that school closed, she moved to the Maytown School. She gets occasional visits from her former pupils. - Mrs. Myers got her BA degree from Millersville State in 1955, after the death of her husband, the late Edwin H. Myers, and one of her sons. She taught before that, but without a degree, which was not required at that time. Mrs. Myers, besides teaching in the public schools, has been a teacher for her church for 30 years. Previously she taught at churches in Manor Town- ship, Leola, and Mount Joy. Mrs. Myers is the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. John N. Herr. She is a member of the Mount Joy Senior Citizens and the Retired Teachers Association.
