Maybe we are so sophisticated that we feel we do not need and do not want mortal heros. Where are the DiMaggios, the Babe Ruths and the Lou Gehrig's of baseball? Where are the Jack Dempseys and the Joe Lewises of yester- year. Is Jonas Salk the modern version of Louis Pasteur? Have you heard of a Serg- eant York recently? Is John Glenn a 1960’s Charles A. Lindberg? Who is the pres- ent-day Amelia Earhart? Is there still a group of heros which approaches the Foreign Legion? Are there mid-twentieth century Min- utemen? Who today rides a horse like Paul Revere? Is anyone speaking for freedom, liberty ‘and patriotism with the fiery words of a Nathan Hale or a Patrick Henry? Is it that heros are never heros except in retrospect? Modern America draws fast from the hip and blasts down its heros. Summer of 1968 has seen one of the most venerated figures in the world taken apart at the hinges by a society which wants what it wants when it wants it. That man is the Pope. The man who holds the most powerful office in the entire world — Lyndon B. Johnson has been cut down to the size of a stumb- ling schoolboy and his lead- ership is questioned on all sides. Americas and the world have seen our leaders spat upon, egged and murdered. Truly, we appear to have re- spect for few men and few offices. Perhaps because he is such an outstanding exception, the country looks more and more to Dwight D. Eisenhower as one of its modern heros. His personal integrity, his mon- umental courage and strength and his continued humility seem to have set him on a pedestal which grows in height each year. We's lost our youthful en- thusiasm for boyhood heros who inspire and stimulate. It is sad that as nations and as individuals, apparently Three Important Addresses U. S. SENATORS JOSEPH S. CLARK Senate Office Bldg. Washington, D. C. HUGH SCOTT Senate Office Bldg. Washington, D. C. U. S. REPRESENTATIVES EDWIN D. ESHLEMAN House Office Bldg. Washington, D. C. we have become base and un- feeling — incapable of re- ceiving the surge of pride and vigor which the very mention of a hero’s name is supposed to engender. We are the losers. We are the sufferers.

This is not even an opinion. This is a fact. ® © If Mount Joy is to grow and prosper, Mount Joy and its responsible leaders must think now — and think hard — about how to have more water avaidat-le for its peo- ple, for its businesses and for its present and fuiure in- dustries. ® © o During what in the past has been the “dry” time in Mount Joy is a good time to think about the water in Mount Joy and to forstall an- other dry time in the future. e Deaths ABRAHAM N.

Completes $450,000 Project Pennsylvania Power and Light company has com- pleted a $450,000 construc- tion project which doubles the capacity of the Earl sub- station and increases the re- liability of the power sup- ply system in New Holland, Honey Brook, Leola and nearby rural areas of Lan- caster county. The 66,000 - 12,0600-volt substation, which is situated near New Holland, was ex- panded to twice previous ca- | pacity by replacing two 5 - 000-kva transformers with 10,000-kva units and install- ing additional automatic switching and relaying equipment. According to Richard H. Light, PP&L’s community service manager - Lancaster Division, the additional pow- er is being supplied by means of a second 66,000- volt line connecting the sta- tion with the Company's high-capacity network. The substation takes power at 66,000 volts and steps it down to 12.000 volts for dis- tribution to PP&L custom- ers. Light said the expansion project is typical of the many major additions being | made in all parts of PP&L’s service area to provide in- creased capacity and reliabil- ity of electric service.
