Mayor Reports
The following report was
given the Mount Joy Borough
Council Monday night, March
11, by Mayor James A.
Gingrich.
The month of February
was a productive month for
the borough.
Councilmen James
Madara and James Heisey
and Police Chief J. Bruce
Kline and myself attended a
county curfew meeting on
Feb. 27, in Lancaster. We
came a little closer on
uniform law. So far, the
group that was present
favors 10 p.m., Sunday
through Thursday, and 12:00
p.m. Friday and Saturday.
Age limit is the question
whether it should be 17 and
under or 18 and under. Later
this month we will try te
have another meeting.
Something to think about......
I have suggested to the
Public Work Committee
about making Apple Alley a
one way street going west. If
you are not familiar, which
alley it is, it is the one just
north of Main street from
Jacob to Manheim St. 1
would suggest that anyone
with an opinion notify me --
all suggestions accepted.

The Mount Joy
Spring clean up... 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.

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.

tertainment for all. This is a
family affair.
Awards will be given after
the dinner.

Lester Hostetter was

organization held Monday
night, March 11, at

Grover Gouker, area

is for Attitude,” Mr. Gouker
stressed the importance of
the individual in determining
what kind of a community,
state, nation or world we are
going to have.
“Don’t say ‘What a
terrible mess the world is
in’, he told his listeners.

to make it better?’ ”’

president of the Chamber of
Commerce.
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.
