Emergency Medical Calls SUNDAY AND SATURDAY AFTERNOON Dr. Thomas O'Connor % Main Street (From page 1) the trees in their fall colors, and the rolling countryside made a beautiful picture! Housed in the Museum, on a well-lighted third floor, is a permanent collection of Wyeth paintings — by N. C. Wyeth, his son, Andrew Wyeth, his grandson, James Wyeth, and a daughter, Henrietta Wyeth. There is also a bookstore, a tea room, and lecture room in the bu.lding. From the museum, it was just a stone’s throw to the Brandywine Battlefield state park. This, too, was a pictur- esque place, with its autumn trees in shades of red & gold, its rolling hills, and its Wash- ington and Lafayette Houses, where the two generals stayed during the battle. It reminded us of Valley Forge, because of the contour of the land, and dogwood trees everywhere! * * * The cast iron apple peeler was a souvenir of the trip, picked up at an “Antque Mall” at Chadd’s Ford. It was made in Reading, Pa., in 1878, is in perfect condition, and takes the peel off a goodsized apple in five seconds! The lit- tle blades are still razor-sharp! * * * As for the Conservatory, it was at Longwood Gardens, and, as usual, words are in- adequate to describe properly how beautiful it is. The huge “entrance hall” of the conservatory was planted with chrysanthemums, and it was breathtaking! There were dozens of urns with plants six feet or more tall, with blos- soms easily 12 inches across! There were rows upon rows of white chrysanthemums, yellow ones, all shades of gold and rust. There were single “daisy-like” blossoms, flowers with sharp “quill” petals, and others with a ‘“spidery” look. The brilliant green grass, the huge, ivy-colored pillars, the solid masses of colors of the flowers—it was a beauti- ful sight! As always, we enjoyed the tropical rooms, the orchid room, the room of palms, the desert rooms. Each one was in apple-pie order, with each plant pruned and clipped per- fectly. There were very few peo- ple there, as it was almost closing time, so we could walk among the beautiful plants without distraction. (We have been there on Sun- days, when the paths were so crowded one could hardly move.) It is truly a little oasis of beauty, and hundreds of thousands have enjoyed it through the years. Hart Enters Dallas Seminary John F. Hart, son of Mr. and Mrs. John G. Hart, Mt. Joy Rl, is a first-year student at Dallas Theological Semin- ary in Dallas, Texas, a gradu- ate school founded in 1924 to provide “the highest standard of theological instruction.” While at the seminary, Hart will be involved in a four-year curriculum which centers in the study of the Bible, and includes Greek and Hebrew a- long wth majors in Theology and Christian Education to equip him to communicate the Scripture to the needs of man. The U. S. suspended all tariff concessions to all com- munist-dominated lands on August 1, 1951. WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 1, 1972 May Establish Historical Unit The possibility of establish- ing some kind of historical or- ganization in Mount Joy is under investigation following the October meet.ng, Thurs- day night, Oct. 5, of the Com- munity Council. Action taken was to estab- lish a committee on historical matters. At that time, various ideas advanced as possibilities will be discussed and evaluated. Council President Mrs. Frank Zink expla ned that the historical committee will work within the framework of the organization's field of “com- munity interest”, One of the first moves, it is anticipated, will be to have someone from Marietta and/ or Lititz to talk to the group and explain in detail how their organizations operate. Both Marietta and Lititz have been strong on ‘‘restora- tion” and promote and foster- ed such activity in their com- munities, Among other activities dis- cussed by the Community Council is the need for a com- munity calendar. It was felt that there are too many overlapping activi- ties and that such situations might be improved if a satis- factory working calendar could be provided. UNICEF Drive Collects $94 People of the Mount Joy community contributed $94 to the UNICEF on Sunday, Oct. 29, it was reported Monday morning by the Inter-Church Council, which sponsored the drive.

His 9 From County In State Show Lancaster County will have nine participants in the State 4-H Horse Show to be held at the Farm Show Building, Har- ricburg, on Nov. 9 and 10. In this state-wide event, top rid- ers from throughout Pennsyl- vania compete for honors. Selected at the district show held in Chester County were Wyle Baker, Cindy Burkey, Jeffrey Fellenbaum, Cheryl Gernet, James Glick, David Good, Debra Heidig, Dana Norquist, and Donna Sam- mons. The 25 classes gave the club members an opportunity to exhibit their skill in horse- man ship and their ability to groom a horse for showing. Classes at the State Show are planned to give young horse- men an opportunity in prac- tically every type of riding popular today. Equitation classes measure a club member's ability to ride his mount; the grooming and showmanship class ~ is judged according to the con- dition and cleanliness of the horse and the club member’s abilty to show him at the halter. Other classes include working hunter, pleasure, western riding, pleasure pony driving, open trail, pole bend- ing, barrel race, and team riding. The 4-H horse and pony project has been a very pop- ular project since its begin- ning in the county. In addi- tion to horse show exhibition, club members meet regularly when various programs and demonstrations are presented. The public is invited to at- tend the State 4-H show—ad- mission is free. COUNTY CHORUS Five Donegal high school students have been named to participate in the Lancaster County Chorus.

He and his wife, Kathryn, live at Mt. Joy St., Elizabethtown, They recently celebrated their 41st wedding ann.versary. Raymond’s principal cam- paign promise is that he will devote full time to the job of representing the people. “From the door-to-door con- tact, I have learned that the people believe they are not be- ing served by their represen- tatives,” he noted. Raymond offers to devote all his tme to the job of legislat- ing. He believes that a legisla- tor’s role is more than law making in Harrisburg. “I will maintain a fulltime office staf- fed if necessary at my own expen:e, in Elizabethtown in order to bring government back to the people,” he said. “It is a location that constitu- ents could visit to discuss the issues, if necessary.” Many of the so-called issues are not really issues at all since they have been consider- ed by the legislature, he says. “We all know that reforms are needed in many areas. But the biggest is having a strong executive and judicial system so that the laws of the General Assembly are carried out across the board with the elimination of the possibility of fraud,” Raymond reported. His platform includes these basic ideas, stated Mr. Ray- mond: “I believe we need to continue on the path of re- form in our welfare system and to provide strong fiscal control of our state budget. Our state government is big business and we must regard it as such and administer its programs in a business like manner. “I believe in a strong audi- tor general’s department staf- fed with qualified personnel to find fraud or misappropria- tion. I firmly believe in the reforms taking place in the State Education Dept. giving the secretary the controls he needs. “I believe in providing jobs rather than hand-outs to peo- ple who are capable of work- ing. I believe our senior citiz- ent are entitled to more con- sideration to improve their standing of living, to provide for their medical and social needs.” 1372 DONEGAL FOOTBALL SCHEDULE November 4—Annville Cleona at Donegal November 11—At Garden Spot Game Time — 2:00 p.m. mr No Garbage Can Burnings A plea and a warning were issued this week by the Mount Joy borough against burning material in trash and garbage collection cans. The practice can be dangerous. Recently a garbage can containing smouldering material was placed for pickup by the borough crew. The material was dumped into the big compactor truck. Later, the material ignited other trash and the truck was afire. Luckily, the truck was near the Florin Fire com- pany and a quick job of extinguishing was accomplish- ed. It is explained by Borough Manager that there have been fires in the huge hopper of the truck previously. He added that the very act of heavily compacting gen- erates heat and adds to the danger of fire when any ma- terial already is smouldering.
