may be having trouble falling
asleep, consider this!

There has been a chronic
shortage of bed pillows in
Russia for years. Now things
have gotten so bad that in
some towns newlyweds, along
with a certificate of marriage,
are given a coupon entitling
them to buy a pillow.

Because we felt like it, we
rolled up a cooy of the Mount
Joy Bulletin for June 16 and
sent it to the New York
Times editor, with a very,
very brief note. (The paper
carried our editorial express:
ing support of the Times’ pos-
ition in regard to the publish-
ing of papers dealing with
the involvement in Vietnam.)

Monday we received the
following note from none oth-
er than Arthur Ochs Sulzber-
ger, president and publisher
of the New York Times:
“Thank you very much for
your letter of June 16. We
are most appreciative of the
editorial support the Mount
Joy Bulletin has given the
New York Times.”

About all one can say

‘Which is another way of

‘Of This and That’
Not long ago we had in
this column a story about an
80-year-old woman at Trinity
Lutheran church in Lancast-
er who can sing -all the stan-
zas of most of the hymns
without opening a book!
We sent her a copy of that
week's paper, and this week
back came a gracious note
whieh we share with you:
“Did not intend to delay
so long to acknowledge copy
of the Mount Joy Bulletin
whieh contained under ‘Of
This and That’ an article
which I knew referred to me.
‘““When I was quite young,
after school, while Mother
was preparing dinner we
sang, she carrying alto and I
soprano. We sang hymns and
repeated Psalms. The first
Psalm memorized was ‘Sun of
my soul, Thou Savior Dear’.
So too my Mother goes the
credit,
“I have lived through four
Hymmnals and am still memor-
izing:
‘We would have a better
world today if parents would .
take time to have communion
with God at a suitable time
with their children. But both
parents work and home (?) is
a place where food is snatch-
ed; and perhaps slept in
sometimes.”

The concert by the ‘“Out-

evening in War Memorial
Park was well attended.
Carrying folding chairs,
some 300 people converged
on the park and spent a
pleasant hour and a half lis-
tening to the earnest music
and message of some eight
or nine Christian young peo-
ple. Their sincerity and zeal
were admirable, and it was
heartwarming and comfort-

resident pastor was installed
in 1727. He came to Donegal
