It is huge, unbelievably elegant in furnishings and decorations, Imported woods, imported tapestries, imported furniture these gave it beauty, elegance, grandeur. It is said that the ecorations and furnishings in the library alone cost $500 000! It is a tangible reminder of days of wealth in this country which will never come again. But we missed the warmth and the charm of Hyde Park! The Vanderbilt Mansion was almost an Old World castle— but not a HOME! x* * * As for the flood: it left sad memories behind: the mem- ory of angry, rushing waters in Sico Park, at the eastern edge of town, along the Man- heim road at the end of Bar- bara street, and in many oth- er areas; the look of dazed unbelief in the eyes of the Marietta evacuees at the Riv- erview elementary school the long rows of cots; the sound of the sump pump tak- ing the 16 inches of water out of the pit beneath our big newspaper press; the sight of hoses out of basement win- dows all over town, with wa- ter running . . . running . . . #* #* * But then there are happy memories, too, of the unbelie- vable outpouring of love and concern by neighbors, friends, townepzople and organizations on behalf of the flood victims. The truckloads of clothing & food that appeared almost in- stantly we will never forg:t! Perhaps the flood’s greatest lesson was to show us that the “brotherhood of man” not just an idle phrase but a reality, even in these days which many label “cold and materialistic.” 1S This is the Time For Brownouts This is the dimming of the Age of Aquarius—Yes, that’s right—dimming of the Age of Aquarius. This is the age of the brown- out, a planned reduction in el- ectrical voltage to a given area for a specified period of time—usually three or four hours. (A blackout is a total loss of power.) What does a brownout mean to you and to your home? Leslie Paige of Whirl- pool Corp. has the answers. First, it means inconveni ence. When notified of a brownout (usually by news- paper, radio or TV), avoid us- ing electrical appliances. Wait a few hours bzafore baking cookies, vacuuming or wash- ing clothes. Second, it can mean perm- anent damage to appliances with continuously operating motors. If your house norm- ally receives 115 volts, it will receive about 104 volts—a re- duction of about 8 percent— during a brownout. This am ount should not cause perm anent appliance damage. Problems occur, however, because some houses, due to location at the end of a pow er line for instance, may not receive 115 volts under nor- mal conditions. And when vol- tage goes below 100, trouble may occur. But don’t despair. There is a way to tell if the voltage in your home goes below the ac- cepted level, Just watch tele- vision, Under reduced voltage, the picture of a correctly operat- ing television set will sudden- ly shrink. - You will' notice formation of a black line 4 to one inch wide around the screen (under extreme condi- tions, the line will get larger and then the picture will dis- appear). This does not harm the television set. But, forma- tion is a signal to turn off the 4 Leisure Club Holds Dinner The Mount Joy Leisure Club met Monday, July 10th, with a covered dish dinner for the annual picnic on the lawn at Sportsmen’s Farm, Approximately 70 members were present. Two new members have joined the club, Mrs, Ruth Holsinger and Mary Lehman Four visitors were present, Mr. and Mrs. Earl Stahl of Duncannan, Mary Lehman and Raymond Lauer. The club donated $10 to the Dick Bell fund. A bus trip is plan- ned touring Lancaster County on August 16. DISSOLVE Do you sometimes feel that your life is a continuing pro- cess of problem solving? Even when you find the solution to one problem, another presents itself. In the field of human dynamics, it is often more im- portant to find the cause than to solve each problem sepa- rately. It is true that we are often our own worst enemy. If you have any ideal or goal you wish to achieve, look carefully to see if you are throwing up your own road- block. Your shortcut to suc- cess is to dissolve self defeat! GOODNESS A fact that is easily discern- ed is that there is much goodness in people if we are willing to look for it. Once we observe an act of gener- osity, and expression of com- passion and caring, we should remember it when someone is presenting the thought that human beings are bad and getting worse all the time. Of course, here is much room for improvement and we all need to grow, but let's not give up. To believe in good- ness, to look for it in ourself and others, is to see it turn- ing up at the most unexpect- ed times and places.

Electric sewing machines have been used since 1889! air conditioner, refrigerator( freezer, ice maker and other appliances with continuously operating motors. mains safe for several hours if the door is keot closed. If these appliances continue to operate under dangerously low voltage, the motor slows down, overheats and wiring insulation can burn awoy. Ynder severe conditions, the motor can “burn out.” Electric utility companies assure us that brownouts are limited to certain areas of the country and will not be with us forever. But while there is a dimming of the Age of Aquarius, be extra” careful and concerned about your ap- pliances. WITH MATCHES !

Merge Merger of the Columbia United and Peoples - United Telephone companies into The United Telephone Company of Pennsylvania has been ap- proved by the Pennsylvania Utility commission. Upon consummation of the merger later this year, United will operate some 270.000 tel- ephones in 24 counties of the state and have a combined plant investment approaching $150 million. The approxi- mately 1650 employees will share an annual payroll ex- ceeding 12 million. The Plan of Merger was filed with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission on March 31, after the plan was by the shareowners & Boards of Directors of all three com- paniés. The companies are members of the United Tele- phone System. The Columbia-United Tele- phone Compgany, in Lancaster county serving 6 000 tele- phones, joined the United System in 1966 through an exchange of common stock with United Telecommunica- tions, Inc., parent organiza- tion of the United System, The Prayer of the Week The evening prayer this week is by W. E. Orchard: “Lord of the night as of the day, we thank Thee that the gathering darkness so often speaks to us of Thee. It is when the light of day is done that we often grow more conscious of the purer light The closing hours towards eternal things. A feeling of moves our feet to The memory of unnoticed within. a tenderness homelessness our only rest. shines in us that of day beget seek for Thee, sins comes back to mind, and we long for nobler life. We become like the children who put off their garments gladly, who wait to hear again some oft-told tale, who feel they must unovurden their hearts to some listening and forgiving heart. Be near us now, O father. Amen.” SIGHT It is a literal fact that we may have perfectly heal- thy eyes, but fail to see. Take the time to look around vou and see how many things you have allowed to go unnoticed. The most common object can become a thing of beauty when studied in detail, while we are thinking of all the component parts that went into its creation. There is nothing wrong with dreaming of faraway beautiful places, but when we have a highly developed sense of sight we can look up, look around, and view a thousand wonders of the world right where we are. UNIVERSE The dictionary devines universe as “All created things viewed as constituting one system; the creation, the cosmos, including all that is.” This means we are a part of the universe. life has meaning, If the universe has meaning, our It is reassuring to note how many people in divergent fields including science) are expres- sing their firm conviction that there's an intelligent di- rection in the unverse and we are all here for a pur- pose. You have an important place in the unt-erse. Remember this, and your whole life will be filled with meaning. A new method of soaking up oil slicks and convert- ing them into useful material has been patented by a Hazelton, Pa., chemical engineer. In addition to the interesting aspects of the invention, this system will al so get rid of used tires. The Nalence brothers tell us that this.is a growing problem. Well worn out tires are shredded to make a mixture that absorbs cil and forms a jelly-like mass. This mass can be converted into a material similar to asphalt for making roads, floors, rocfing and other products. There is always something new and exciting being developed. —Lambertville, N. J.
