Police Asked
Lenient In The Future With
Overtime Parkers
' 118 Violations In One
Month Too Many, Says
Borough Councilmen
It seems that from now on ov-
ertime parkers in Mount Joy
will receive a much needed
break, that is, if Burgess Fish
and Chief Neiss can impress on
the police the necessity of look-
ing for the driver of the car in
a store or restaurant before is-
suing a ticket.
118 parking violations during
the month of November caused
the Borough Fathers Monday
night to request that the police
be more lenient in the ({uture
and not place a ticket on the car
immediately after the red flag
comes up.
If the police continue issuing
tickets for parking violations at
the present rate, it will drive
business from Mount Joy stated
the councilmen.
Burgess Fish stated
councilmen that he had asked
the police to try to locate the
driver before issuing a red tick-
et and if the driver cannot im-
mediately be located to walk |
down the street and on the re-
turn trip place a ticket on the
car if the red flag is still show-
ing.

Prize Money
Donated To
Remm. Comm.
Verlene Harple, 14 year old
daughter of Charles F. Harple,
Manheim R. D. 2 who won the
5th placement prize in the Bul-
letin’s Subscription contest, do-
nated $84.30 of her winning to
the Mount Joy Remembrance
Committee.
This is the largest donation
ever received from any indivi-
dual or factory by the commit- |
tee and a mere thanks seems so
little for such a wonderful gift.
This young lady realizes how |
important the committee is be-
cause she has a brother Ray- |
mond in the U. S. Marine Corps
who is on their list.
Verlene and her father are
both active members of the Re-
membrance Committee and now
after giving so much of their
time they gave this donation.
No words of thanks can ex-
press the sincere feelings of the
Remembrance Committee.

First Time
In 38 Years
Mr. and Mrs. Clayton Hofl-
man and son Bill, of Rolla,
North Dakota are visiting with
Mr. and Mrs. John E. Zeller, of
Pinkerton Road, this boro.
Mr. Hoffman left Mount Joy
for a trip west 38 years ago and
this is his first trip back home
in all those years. He is a bro-
ther to Roy Hoffman, Delta and
School Lane.
On Saturday a surprise party
was held by the Zeller's for his
, 63rd birthday. Those present
were: Mr. and Mrs. John Lan-
dis and daughter, Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Hoffman and daughter,
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Hoffman,
Mr. and Mrs. John Zeller and
children Gary and Terry.
Mr. Hoffman expressed a wish
if any of his former friends
would like to drop in and say
hello hey would be most wel-
come.
The Zeller family on a tour
west this summer stopped to
visit with the Hoffman's at N.
Dakota. Mrs. Zeller is a niece
