Solution to problem
The bulletin has not
received any answers by
mail to last week's problem.
But we were told by a very
wise woman in Maytown
how she thought property
disagreenents should be
settled:
‘““By open discussion,
amicable agreement, and
observing legal rights.’
She has tried “e. pre-
scribed method, and it has
worked. :

many facets of brewing in the upper and
lower levels of Lancaster County's oldest
brewery. Giant vats are still in place within
the Lagering Cellar. The fermented brew was
placed in wooden casks in order to age for a
period of 30 days before being drawn off into
smaller kegs which were stored 43 feet below the
street surface. Temperature remains around 50 de-
grees year around in the Catacombs.

Letters to the editor
Dear Editor:
Let it be known, the
Historical Society of Mount
Joy has acquired a house the
boro owned for their preci-
ous artifacts. With very little
cost to the Society. To
acquire this house the
tenants who rent the house
from the borough are asked
to vacate it on or before
January 1, 1976. What these
people are losing can not be
measured in money terms.
They have lived there for 4S
years, to be evicted after
}' half a lifetime in a well loved
home is a personal hard-
ship.
Dear Editor:
Wednesday the Mt. Joy
Jr. Midgets won the Red
Rose League Championship
by defeating Strasburg. I
checked both morning and
evening papers to find only
one line: “Mt. Joy 7 -
Strasburg 2.
Don’t these fine boys
deserve more credit than
that? There are good kids
around.
I was not at the game. I
came to the park as the
game was ended, but
someone told me these kids

Dear Editor:
When we were on vaca-
tion the first week in August
we went to visit my sister
Mrs. Charles Meshey and
her husband in Illinois. She
subscribes to the Times and
she showed me a picture of
the steam boat that used to
run from Marietta to Acco-
mac. It brought back
memories because the man
who ran the boat was our
grandfather, William
I can remember
Walker.
riding on the boat often.
There was a long bench on
either side of the boat where
people sat. I used to like to
sit out in front with my feet
over the side. 1 called my
aunt in Marietta (Mrs.
George Elslager) to see if
she could remember any-
thing about her father and
the boat. She said that
running the boat was his
work but in the winter he did
odd jobs. His son Bob who
now lives in Orlando,
Florida and son George who
still lives in Marietta worked
for him. There is another
son Jospeh who lives in
Pottstown. I'm going to
frame one of those pictures
of the boat for him.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Victor Rohrer
A lease agreement is
being drawn up for approval
by both the Historical
Society and the Borough
Council. One question —
will the eviction be recorded
properly for future refe-
rence??
Even though traffic flows
on Manheim and Barbara
Streets by this home, it
doesn’t interfere with the
serenity at the old quarry
site. The large stately trees
and shrub bushes make a
sound barrier that muffles
noises made by traffic.
I‘ve visited this fine old
home, which stands in its
were so excited. They gave
their coach, B. Etsell, a nice
plaque with the names of all
the players engraved and
gifts to other coaches too. I
was told the relationship
between coach and boys was
terrific. He took them on
weekends to the mountains
and to Baltimore for Orioles
games.
He had the players and
parents to his house after
games for ice cream.
To me this is hearsay;
I wasn’t there. But doesn’t it
merit a ‘‘small’’ bit of
secluded alcove surrounded
with neatly trimmed grass
and weed-free flower beds
in bloom, and came away
with a feeling of peace and
tranquility. To see such a
stately old home that has
character is to know the
people who live there, are
people who care.
Would the people who
dare to turn this home into a
house care enough to visit
there.
Sign me,
A disgusted resident
credit. In these days when
so much of the news is bad
there are still nice good
people around and wonder-
ful kids.
I appreciate your recogni-
tion of events and people.
Thank you.

EDITOR’S NOTE: Would B.
Etsell round up his team for

Dear Editor:
I feel sorry for Zelda L.
Heisey, Sandra F. Peters,
and ‘‘Happy with My
Choice!’
Over a hundred years ago
an abolitionist who had
worked hard in the cause of
freeing the slaves must have
felt as I did, when she heard
a few slaves praising their
‘“Massahs,’’ and talking


COUNTY WIDE
about how happy they were
to be slaves.
The saddest women today
are those who think they are
content to be just wives,
mothers, cooks, and house-
keepers — because from
infancy on they have been
brainwashed by our culture
to believe that a woman’s
place is in the home.
A liberated woman
