The day after elec- tion he, or friends, came through Mount Joy and removed his campaign posters from utility poles. ep The word was that ‘‘he’ll save those posters and run again next time.” SHOE FACTORY (Continued from Page i} a pool of experienced workers who until receiit!y were part of the now-close«! Gerberich-Payne sho« factory. Monday, as the very first work began, three “clickers”’ were in operation, Johnstonbaugh said. Elsewhere in the caver- nous Mount Joy street building, workmen were busily engaged in installing other machines and equipment. Much of the machinery, the manager said, came from what formerly was the Florin Footwear plant, southwest of the borough. Location of the factory on Mount Joy street was the subject of a public hearing held last week, to which residents of the neigh- GRANT CITY ~ WALL-TO-WALL CARPETING AN'T COME TO GRANTS RANTS WILL COME One of our decorator-trained salesmen will come to your home at no extra charge.

The loss gave Donegal a 2- 8 season record; 2-6 in league play, and a seventh place in the nine-team Section II of the L-L standings. A year ago, the Indians were 3-7 for the season. Against the undefeated (once tied) Comets, the Indians found the ground- gaining tough and counted only six first downs during the afternoon with a total of 65 yards by rushing. Donegal made scoring threats but the tough Comet outfit was not to be denied or to be nosed out of its championship bid by Manheim Central, which came in second in the 1974 league race, just ahead of Annville-Cleona. As the season closes and football eyes turn to the future, they will see Donegal bracketed in the new Section II1 with Garden Spot (enrollment 846), Elco (630), Lampeter-Strasburg (627), Cocalico (549), Annville- Cleona (506), and Lebanon Catholic (313). Donegal has an accountable enrollment, ‘or football purposes, of 622. Next year, Donegal, with other schools in the area, will join ithe new, bigger and more statified Lancaster- Lebanon-Berks league and will play 11 games, all within Section II and III, including three night contests. (Elizabethtown, Columbia, Manheim Central, Solanco, Elco, Annville-Cleona, Lampeter-Strasburg, Garden Spot, Cocalico, Ephrata and Lebanon Catholic.) BORO.

About 50 percent of the meters have been converted. ‘This and That’ (Continued from Page 1) people, people, peop:e! As they walked slowly through the booths, their eyes glanced over the shaving mugs, the lanterns, the china, the pressed and cut glass, the jelly cupboards, plank bottom and cane- seated chairs. As they glanced, we wonder if, in reality, they weren't seeing, depending on their age, either their childhood home in the country, their parents’ childhood home, or were hearing again the tales of “the old days’ as told by their grandparents. For it was a motley crowd, these wanderers in the Valley of Nostalgia. Many, many of them were very young. Some were dressed in blue jeans with long, unkempt hair, but many others were conventionally dressed, with well-behaved little children at their side. Others were middle-aged, prosperous looking people, in smart sports jackets and pants suits. A few were older folk, smiling fondly as they fingered coffee grinders, granite coffee pots, dainty china tea sets or hand- carved cradles. There was something for everyone! About ten years ago we began to be interested in antiques, for three or four years we avidly went to shops, shows, auctions and Make Santa’s job flea markets. Then our interest waned, and for about seven years we have not paid much attention to such things. Now, for some inexplicable reason, our interest has revived! Hence the Sunday excursion to Renninger’s. But what a change has taken place in the antiques inarket in those seven years! Prices have soared! The ‘‘antiques’’ have gotten much ‘“‘younger,”’ and more people than ever before are now ‘‘collecting’’ precious bits of the past. To illustrate the price MENU: Hot Cider a little easier.

And so it went! We, and the three or four other people from Mount Joy that we saw, were having a wonderful time! In a way, perhaps, we were checking up on the authenticity of ‘‘the good old days,” and possibly trying to discover their secrets. More likely, we wanted to borrow from the Valley of Nostalgia a little of its simplicity, peace and strength to bring back to the World of Today!
