I would like to take a little of your time to suggest about Spring clean up. First, let’s try and clean up around our properties. Lets be proud that we are from Mount Joy. Abandoned autos... We again moved abandoned autos from the borough. There are still quite a few left. T urge you, if this situation pertains to you, that they be moved as soon as possible. Burning... There has been some citizens of this com- munity calling and asking what can be done about burning. Here again, I suggest you notify me on your suggestions. I feel that the people of the borough should voice their opinions about this problem. Last, let me add that I have been sitting in the borough office, to listen to citizens comments. So far I feel that it has been very constructive. I will be sitting in the borough office on Friday, March 15, from 7 to 8:30 p.m. I urge anyone who feels that he has a problem to come in. James A. Gingrich Mount Joy Dramatic Play At St. Luke Church The Caravan Players, an independent, interdenom- inational group which specializes in dramatic productions in the church will present Dorothy Williams’ drama, ‘‘The Woman of Samaria’ in St. Luke’s Episcopal Church on Wednesday, March 20, at 7:30 p.m. Jacqueline Bairos por- trays the woman scorned and berated by the members of her community because they cannot approve of, nor understand her life style. Through a chance meeting with Jesus, the woman undergoes a miraculous transformation; healing of the mind and spirit is as vital as a change in physical health. The role of her in- terviewer will be shared by Dave May and Eleanor Green. An invitation is extended to the public to attend this drama which will be presented with a short service of worship.

School Takes 1974 Census Throughout Donegal District Six people in the area have been named by the Donegal School district to take its annual census survey. The census, which includes all residents living within the school district, began March 4 and each home will be visited. The census takers include: Marilyn Baker and Lauralee Baker, Marietta borough; Roxanne Eisenhower and Margaret Nissley, Mount Joy borough; Benjamin Gainer, East Donegal township, and Rosalie Brandt, Mount Joy township. Census takers ask for names, birth dates, and grade and school, if the in- dividual is attending school. The census has no direct influence upon property assessments or rates of personal taxes, but is needed to secure an accurate count of residents within the distrct. The information will be data processed and files maintained which will be utilized by the schools to best serve the total population. The project is to be completed by about May 1.
