Jr. High School Girls Club
To Give 1974
The 1974 Girls’ Gym Club
of the W.I. Beahm junior
high school will present its
eighth annual show Thur-
sday, Friday, and Saturday,

performances at 8 o’clock in
the school auditorium.

by the editor’s wife
What's wrong with the
world?
Lots of people would say,
“Plenty!”
But we'd rather talk about
what’s right with the world.
And after this past week end,
we'd say that there is
‘plenty’ of that!
We attended Com-
mencement exercises at the
Associated Mennonite
Biblical Seminary in
Elkhart, Indiana, at which
our son-in-law received his
degree. Our hearts were,
warmed and touched by the
fine young men who were
graduating and going out
into many, many kinds of
service to their fellowmen.
Several were taking
pastorates in churches all
across the country and even
in Canada. A few were going
on to another school
to
continue their education.
Others were going into inner-
city missions in this country,
to Africa, South America,
Vietnam and Taiwan.
It was good to see the
ability, sincerity and
dedication of these men.
What was more, most of
them were married, and
their wives stood by their
side as they were ‘‘com-
missioned,”’ and planned
either to share in their
husbands’ work or, in a few
cases, to do special service
of their own in addition to
carrying the duties of a wife.
It was an impressive and
happy sight! Many of the
graduates had little children,
and these too, would be
sharing in a very special
kind of life. Joy was on the
faces of the whole family!

Mount Joy Rotary
To Send Two Boys
To Leaders’ Camp
Rotarians from Adams,
Cumberland, Dauphin,
Lancaster, Lebanon and
York counties are now
preparing for the 15th annual
William Nitrauer Leaders
Camp, to be held at Camp
Shikellimy near Harrisburg,
June 11-15, inclusive.
The Mount Joy club will be
represented by Newton
Kendig and Timothy
Eshelman of Donegal high
school, 1975 seniors, it was
announced by Lester
Eshelman, local camp
chairman.
Each year Rotarians
select 100 outstanding junior
class members from public,
private and parochial high
schools to receive five days
of intensive instruction. The
main objective of this
project is to prepare the
youths for leadership roles in
their respective com-
munities upon completion of
their education.
Representatives of
business, industry and the
professions stage seminars
where there are question and
answer periods. Lectures by
leaders in many areas of
community life are
presented daily. In this way
the boys become acquainted
with many vocations as they
decide what courses they
will take in college. There
are more than 1300 camp
alumni, many of whom have
become civic leaders in their
own communities.
