The improvements and the restoration of the old city hall and the Methodist church he had attended as a boy. The Corinne City cemetery was a source of greatest wonder. It did not resemble the dry weed grown and neglected resting place of older residents that he remembered it to be.

Sleeping bags thrown on the floor provided sleeping accommodations for 24, besides Hello there Mantua-ites- , and anyone else interested in this column. I am your newspaper correspondent. I was told by the publisher, Charles Claybaugh, that this really isnt a money making job but rather a service for your community. Well I am hoping to be just that, a service. However. I do so with fear and trembling as I have observed that this is not an easy job. For instance: What if you would print that Sahandra White's party was held at Jane Smith's when it was not. The party really was held at Amathena Blacks. Then what if you should forget to write in about Milissa Tidwellington having a TROUBLE! Then there is the correct name spelling department. If I should refer to people as Mrs. J. Wallentine, Mrs. J. Reeves or Mrs. J. Rasmussen, well everyone should realize why I would do so. These women spell their names a certain way and I am sure there are many others which do this. It will be my luck to fail to realize which one does it how. Adding to the community with names of Roubidoux and Polozolo is going to be mighty tricky also. I can already see that reporting must have been a lot easier when you just tacked Jeppsen or Hailing onto everything. You could not go wrong then, at least not very far. I would like to say thanks to the last reporter, Deon Richards, and hope I should do as well. I would invite all the people of Mantua to let me know your news. Also you may let me know of my mistakes and I will try to not make the same one new-come- them. Enjoying an eight day holiday recently were Ted and Marg Burt and daughter Pattie. They motored to Lake Tahoe where they spent the night. San Francisco, Calif was the next stop for them. They visited points of interest and attended a baseball game. They traveled down the coast to Los Angeles to spend some time visiting with the Richard Burt family. From California to Tucson, Ariz., where they arrived to attend ceremonies at the US Air Force base there. They witnessed the presentation of the Distinguished Flying Cross to their son Capt. Ronald Burt. He was awarded the medal for service performed in Vietnam as a pilot in the US Air Force. The Burts spent two days with their son, his wife and daughter. Recent visitors here have been Mr. and Mrs. Lysle Schneider and (JoAnne) children Curt, Lisa and Jill, of Lake Oswego, Ore. The Schneiders spent two weeks in Utah dividing their time between JoAnne's parents Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Forsgren and with his parents in Logan.

Results of the above offer will be printed when available. Don Braithwaite of the Soil Conservation service attended the meeting by the invitation of Mayor Hailing.
