YOUR
LEGASLATOR'S
% REPORT
yy
By Sherman L. Hill
How often does one stop
to think about the impor-
tance of our water supply?
For a number of years we
have been told that our sup-
ply will lessen and that we
should be concerned with
conservation and study
means for new and expanded
facilities. The Lancaster Co.
Planning Commission has ap-
pointed a Water Resource
Advisory Committee to study
how much water we have,
where its sources are and
will our supply meet future
needs. This is encouraging
and will benefit the people
of Lancaster County.
Pennsylvania’s Water and
Power Resources Board is
presently considering a re-
quest from the Chester Muni-
cipal Water Authority for an
additional allocation of wa-
ter from the Octoraro creek.
If the request is approved,
Chester will be permitted to
almost double its present
consumption. Will Lancaster
County’s future water needs
be imperiled if Chester's re-
quest is approved? At present
the answer is unknown, but
it could prove costly and
maybe tragic if we give a-
way water today that we
need in the near future.
Legislators from Lancaster
and Chester Counties were
given the opportunity to ap-
pear before a scheduled
meeting of the Water and
Power Resources Board| The
meeting was informative and
interesting, and we are hope-
ful the Board will have all
answers for our protection
before issuing a decision on
the Chester request.

The deadline date for re-
apportionment is almost here
The court-imposed date of
Sept. 1 leaves little time to
study and discuss an impor-
tant issue. In the House of
Representatives the majority
party seems to hesitate to
bring the bill out of commit-
tee because Legislators of
their own membership will
be affected when the House
membership is reduced to 200
instead of the present 208.
Because of this, dissatisfact-
ion may arise in the Demo-
cratic ranks. With much more
delay the responsibility of
the reapportionment will be
placed in the courts.

Have you been reading a-
bout all investigations, task
forces studies, special com-
mittee reports, and other in-
vestigations taking place in
the State Government? This
happens when the majority
party doesn’t have a definite
program. Our Democratic
friends are prompt to offer
criticism but neglect to offer
a constructive program. A
Democratic - controlled com-
mittee will not bring to the
floor of the House a Senate
approved bill to provide
Joint State Government Com-
mission. If they really are of
the opinion the General As-
sembly’s research arm isn’t
necessary then why spend
many dollars on investiga-
tion? The people of Lancast-
er County will not accept ac-
tion of this kind. Politics
which involve deals, and pol-
itics which sacrifice good
government for immature
thinking wiil never survive
in our county.

My son, Douglas, a Sopho-
more at Millersville State
College, has had the privilege
of being a Courtesy Page in
the House of Representatives
last week. He would like to
share his thoughts with you. }
®e eo o
On Monday and Tuesday
9th and 10th of this
.! month: I was honored to have
$500,000 for operation of the |
THE BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY,
been a Courtesy Page in the
House of Representatives of
the General Assembly. One
may imagine that I couldn't
have learned too much about
the job in such a short time.
However, the opposite is true
and the Pages’ duties recur
daily, permitting one to learn
the work rapidly. I must ad-
mit that it was not as glamor-
ous as popular opinion would
‘have it. Perhaps the most te-
dious of work appears before
and after the session when
the pages are responsible for
keeping the bills in the 209
Representatives folders up to
date. To elaborate a bit, this
means that each folder must
have all bills that were pass-
ed or taken off the calendar
removed, and that each fold-
er must have bills placed in-
to them as each appears on
the calendar. All of this acti-
vity continues with the bills
PA.
in chronological order,
During the session itself,
the Page's obligations on the
floor are rather simple. That
is, the pages must run vari--
ous errands for the Represen-
tatives. If he does his work
efficiently, the Representati-
ves remains happy, the chief
Clerk (in charge of the pages)
will be happy; if the Chief
Clerk is happy, the pages
will be happy, because they
will retain their positions. In
conclusion, I certainly thank
Mr. Anthony J. Petrosky, the
chief clerk, for the opportun-
ity to learn a bit more about
our State government in
Harrisburg. I sincerely sug-
gest that anyone who consid-
ers himself a responsible citi-
zen should atiend a few ses-
sions to become familiar with
the way in which our law-
makers operate.

society.
At the 21st floor a young
man boarded the automatic
elevator. He was wearing a
hat. \
“I didn’t know him,” Dr.
Pierce says, “but we nodded
to each other.”
At the 20th floor, a couple
of attractive girls got on the
elevator.
They seemed to be cultur-
ed, charming young women.
The young man- thus doffed
his hat, gallantly.
At other floors additional
passengers got on the eleva-
tor or got off till they reach-
ed the 9th floor.
“By that time,” Dr. Pierce
added, “only this young man
and I were left, plus the two
young women.”
But as the elevator door
closed, one of these attract-
ive looking girls said:
“This damned
stops at every floor!”
“Whereupon,” concluded
Dr. Pierce, ‘the young man
put his hat right back on his
head!”
Then Dr. Pierce used this
personal episode to launch
upon a sermon dealing with
the “image” that cultured
women must maintain in
modern society.
Also, many teen-age girls
are so eager to appear adult-
ish and sophisticated, that
they act like sheep when ad-
vertisers try to stampede
them into using liquor as
well as cigarets and even
outlandish costumes in dress
or fingernail polish.
Although our Scientific
Marriage Foundation shows
that most men abhor women
who smoke, thousands of
coeds adopt the cigaret habit,
mistakenly by believing it
will increase their romantic
appeal.
“Don’t waste my time in-
troducing me to a woman
who smokes,” is the stand-
‘ard request of thousands of
young doctors, business ex-
ecutives, school principals
and scientific farmers.
Yet some of these men are
chain smokers themselves
“Dr. Crane,,; protests many
coeds, “why do men who
smoke demand that their
sweethearts avoid tobacco?”
Well, it’s because of this
“image” of romantic girls
which men cherish in their
imaginations.
It is just a part of the age-
old double standard that is
still very evident in modern
society.

Pierce offers you a valuable bit of advice. It deals with

Too many girls are seduced by glib advertis-

CASE S-478: Dr. Robert B. Pierce is the pastor of Chi-
cago’s famous skycraper church in the heart of the Loop.
He occupies a unique parsonage high in the sky.
Recently he got on the elevator at the 22nd floor to go
downstairs to his church office.
The Worry Clinic
by Dr. Geo. W. Crane
this case, for Dr.
two major categories, name-
ly, the “good time Gerties”
vs. those they might marry.
The former are used for
sexual purposes and then
discarded like a used cigar-
et.
But the girls whom men
plan to marry are those who
maintain that “image” of
charming femininity.
Men expect genteel wives
who abhor tobacco, liquor,
risque stories, excessive
slang, profanity, undue in-
terest in sports, and even
harsh looking fabrics, sequins
or a glaring makeup and fin-
gernails that look like talons
or “vampire” claws.
The sooner you girls wake
up to reality and learn that
sexual ‘“‘opposites attract,”
the sooner you'll wear a
wedding ring!

NOW IS THE TIME
TO FREEZE CORN
Your family can enjoy
sweet corn in different styes,
including whole kernel,
cream style, and on-the-cob,
says Doris W. Thomas, Asso-
ciate Extension Home Econ-
omist.
For best results, select
plump ears with tender kern-
els and thick sweet milk.
Corn in which the milk is
thick and starchy may be
frozen cream style.
Ears for whole kernel or
cream style corn should be
blanched 4 minutes and cool-
ed rapidly. Cut kernels from
the cob and pack in meisture-}
vapor-proof containers. Since
corn expands during freezing
allow a half inch for head-
space in each container.
When freezing corn on-the-
cob, blanching time will vary
from 7 minutes for small
ears to 11 minutes for large
ears. Cool quickly, and
drain. Wrap cooled ears in
aluminum foil, plastic locker
paper, or envelopes of moist-
ure-vapor-proof material.
Freeze and store corn at
zero degrees or below. For a
top-quality project, use froz-
en corn within 10 months of
freezing.

Murphy Earnings
Show Increase
G. C Murphy company net
earnings for the first six
months of 1965 increased,
despite a reatively small gain
in sales from fewer stores.
The company reported earn-
ings of $2,462,218, or 59¢ a
share compared with $2,420.-
578, or 58¢ a share. At June
30 there were 511 stores in
operation compared with 513
a year ago.
In the first 6 months the
modernization program was
continued, 5 stores were op-
ened and 4 were closed. Fif-
teen new units are presently
under construction or con-
tract.
Sales for July increased
10.6 %, indicating economic
improvement in our operat-
ing area. The trend is ex-
pected to continue and to
contribute substantially to-
ward further improvement in
earnings for the latter half
of the year.
HIT BY TRAIN
A Harrisburg youth nar-
rowly escaped probable death
Thursday night, Aug .12 at a
grade crossing of the Penna.
railroad,. about two miles
east of Mount Joy.
Albert H. Miller, 19, stall-
ed his station wagon on the
railroad tracks about 10 p.m.
He was attempting to start
the motor when he heard the
horn of the approaching PRR
Penn-Texas and saw the
lights of the engine. He
jumped, heard a noise, look-
ed back and his car had disa-
peared.
The 1963 car was demolish-
ed and the train, which stop-
ped about a half mile west
of the crossing, was delayed
an hour and 40 minutes.
