On Friday, following fire at his place of business, John Henry Lutz picked out what small tools he could from the debris of his welding shop on Donegal Springs Road. Saturday some 50 firemen and friends descended upon his property and with load- ers, trucks, muscle and good humor, cleared away the charred and ruined remains, including badly damaged ce- ment block walls.

Pour into our minds the light of Thy Truth and cause us to rejoice in Thy Word. Shed abroad Thy love in our hearts, and bestow upon us abundantly the peace and comfort of Thy Holy Spirit. Graciously increase in us that faith which works by love, which purifies the heart, and overcomes the world, that we may have the victory over every sin, and according to Thy promise, do Thou bruise Sa- tan under our feet shortly, and deliver us from all his soul destroying power. Make us watchful against all the evil of our hearts, for the sake of Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.” Weis Profit Plan Meeting A review of the highlights of the past year’s operation of Weis Markets.

Councilman Al Kleiner, chairman of the finance com- mittee, pointed out that the council had tentatively decid- ed to face up the fact that ex- penses may be heavy this year but that repairs - would be more acceptable this year with the hope that a better approach could be found next year. New trucks, Groff said, might cost $18,000. An employee of the bor- ough who works the garbage truck complained that people of the borough are not adher- ing to the ordinance govern- ing how garbage and trash are to be made available for collection. Council reread its ordin- ance. Garbage is to be wrap- ped and placed in 20-gallon appropriate containers. Each household is allowed. without extra charge, two such con- tainers and an additional three with trash. Council said that if gar- bage and trash are not in the proper containers that the borough crew is to let the ma- terial sit and is not to collect it. Council accepted the resig- nation of Warren Hayman from the board of health. Borough Treasurer Robert Kline reported that the new occupation tax already has paid into the borough $1,275 Councilman Simeon Horton said that work is scheduled to begin shortly on the new Ziegler street storm drain and on resurfacing of Richland & School Lane.

Lea- therman agreed to accept $7.50 per month as ground rent for the borough-owned trailer which is parked on their lot along Apple alley. Complaint of a rat infesta- tion on the property of Lan- caster Leaf Tobacco ware- house on Old Market street was referred to the Board of Health. Council approved a devel- opment plan presented by Jones and Zink to build a street and to open 11 lots a- long Donegal Springs Road. located north of that thoro- fare and west of Cross Roads church. The street would ex- tend northward. Drainage and fire protection are incorporat- ed into the plans. The devel- opment is to be known as Pennsbury Manor. .
