Father Joseph Driscoll Leaves St. James Church Father Joseph Driscoll, who lias had the care of St. , James. Catholic Parish, Lititz for the past nine years, bade farewell to his congregation at all the Masses on Sunday. He will be succeeded by Father Francis Sands, C.SS.R. In his farewell address to the people, Father Driscoll expressed his regrets at leaving the Church and the congregation that he has loved and served. “A priest’s place is with his people,” declared Father Driscoll. “He must not only visit the sick but care for those in difficulties and troubles. He must watch over and guide the young in their education. He must comfort and console the sorrowful and preach the Gospel of Christ: inspire the people with the spirit of justice and charity.” It has been Father Driscoll’s custom to visit in the homes and welcome the new-comers to his parish. “He must also be part and parcel of the community in which he lives and be ready to sacrifice and help in all the worthwhile programs. This I have not been able to do recently,” said Father Driscoll. “At the age of 73, we naturally slow down some. While I was reluctant to acknowledge it, it became more evident in latter years. Consequently, it is a wise move on the part of the superiors to send into St. James a Father Joseph Driscoll young, vigorous, alert priest. That we have in Father Sands who will take my place in the care of this parish. “Father Sands, as you all know, is an eloquent speaker, has a warmth and deep sympathy for ail the sick and the shut-ins; he has particular rapport with youth and has always been recognized as a devoted, zealous Redemptorist. His experience in Puerto Rico, New York and Tampa will serve him well.” Father Driscoll called for support of Father Sands in the difficult task that lay ahead of him. (Continued on Page 5) Lititz Fire Chief Ammon Shelly informed The Record Wednesday that a new electronic fire “Alerting System” will go into effect in October. Shelly said seven fire companies will be involved and he and his wife will operate the electronic system with 24 hour reliefs provided by the companies. The companies are Lititz, Rothsville, Brunnerville, Brick-erville, Penryn, Manheim and Salunga. The system will operate the sirens of all the companies electronically. All fire calls will be received in Lititz on private lines used exclusively for such calls. When a call is received, the company’s siren will be electronically activated and the individual firemen notif'ed of the location of the fire by a monitor in their homes. Consequently, the firemen will immediately know the location of the fire and go directly there rather than reporting to the fire house. Shelly said this will help the firemen provide quicker service for the public and less time traveling for the firemen. The total cost to each company will be about $236 to initiate the service. The service will be similar to that now used in the Lancaster City, Quarryville and Ephrata areas. Senior Citizens Plan Banquet The final meeting of the season for the Senior Citizens will be held on Thursday, June 20 at 5:30 p.m. at the Lititz Recreation Center at which time a completely catered banquet will be served. Club members will not need to bring any place settings. Any person not contacted by the calling chairman should contact Mrs. Lydia Spinner or Mrs. Eva Koehler not later than Friday, June 14. The program for the evening, following the banquet, will be presented by the “Grand Square Dance Club” who will demonstrate the technique of square dancing under the direction of Paul Andrews. The Senior Citizens will be invited to participate in the dancing. Club meetings will be adjourned for the months of July and August. The advisors for the Senior Citizens are Mrs. Forbes Emsweller and Mrs. Marguerite Rider. Mrs. Emsweller has reported that the final count on the soap that the club members collected and sent to Richard Corton in Viet Nam was 375 pounds of soap. Chicken Com Soup And Bake Sale At Penryn A Chicken Corn Soup Sale and Bake Sale, sponsored by the Penryn Fire Company will be held at the Penryn Church Grove on Saturday, June 22 starting at 10 a.m. till ? In case of rain the event will be held in the Penryn Fire Hall. A baseball game between the Penryn Fire Company and the Lititz Fire Company will be played beginning at 2 p.m. Jackpot' Cash Prizes Zoom To $200; Drawing 2 P. M. Saturday The “Shop in Lititz Jackpot” Saturday grew to $80 and $120 as neither of the winners were present to accept their cash prizes. Tom Kenyon, representing the Lititz Retailers’ Association, drew the names in the third weekly drawing before a large downtown crowd. Seven names were for $10 gift certificates and the winners were mailed their certificates. The two cash drawings, one for $90 and another for $60, have to be claimed on the spot or the money goes back into the pot for the following week. That is what happened Saturday when Barbara Myers drew the names of Elam B. Hollinger, 629 S. Broad St., for $90 and Fannie Gehman, Lititz R.3, for $60. Since neither were on hand, the cash jackpots next week will be $120 and $80. While all entry cards will be held for the grand prize drawing for the 1968 Chevy II at the end of the 12-week contest, it will be necessary to re-register each week for the weekly gift certificates and cash bonus drawings. Anyone over 16 years of age is eligible to enter this continuing contest. All it takes is to sign up at any one of the stores of the 29 participating Lititz merchants. Register as often as you wish: no purchase is necessary. But, to be in each week’s contest be sure to REGI S TER EACH WEEK. The next drawing will be held this Saturday, June 15th, 2 p.m. at the Conestoga Bank Parking lot. Winners Last week’s seven $10 certificate winners and the stores in which their certificate may be redeemed are: Gene Hornberger, 138 N. Cedar St., Charlotte’s Apparel Shop: Barry Smith, 110 S.

Father Joseph Driscoll Leaves St. James Church Father Joseph Driscoll, who lias had the care of St. , James. Catholic Parish, Lititz for the past nine years, bade farewell to his congregation at all the Masses on Sunday. He will be succeeded by Father Francis Sands, C.SS.R. In his farewell address to the people, Father Driscoll expressed his regrets at leaving the Church and the congregation that he has loved and served. “A priest’s place is with his people,” declared Father Driscoll. “He must not only visit the sick but care for those in difficulties and troubles. He must watch over and guide the young in their education. He must comfort and console the sorrowful and preach the Gospel of Christ: inspire the people with the spirit of justice and charity.” It has been Father Driscoll’s custom to visit in the homes and welcome the new-comers to his parish. “He must also be part and parcel of the community in which he lives and be ready to sacrifice and help in all the worthwhile programs. This I have not been able to do recently,” said Father Driscoll. “At the age of 73, we naturally slow down some. While I was reluctant to acknowledge it, it became more evident in latter years. Consequently, it is a wise move on the part of the superiors to send into St. James a Father Joseph Driscoll young, vigorous, alert priest. That we have in Father Sands who will take my place in the care of this parish. “Father Sands, as you all know, is an eloquent speaker, has a warmth and deep sympathy for ail the sick and the shut-ins; he has particular rapport with youth and has always been recognized as a devoted, zealous Redemptorist. His experience in Puerto Rico, New York and Tampa will serve him well.” Father Driscoll called for support of Father Sands in the difficult task that lay ahead of him. (Continued on Page 5) Lititz Fire Chief Ammon Shelly informed The Record Wednesday that a new electronic fire “Alerting System” will go into effect in October. Shelly said seven fire companies will be involved and he and his wife will operate the electronic system with 24 hour reliefs provided by the companies. The companies are Lititz, Rothsville, Brunnerville, Brick-erville, Penryn, Manheim and Salunga. The system will operate the sirens of all the companies electronically. All fire calls will be received in Lititz on private lines used exclusively for such calls. When a call is received, the company’s siren will be electronically activated and the individual firemen notif'ed of the location of the fire by a monitor in their homes. Consequently, the firemen will immediately know the location of the fire and go directly there rather than reporting to the fire house. Shelly said this will help the firemen provide quicker service for the public and less time traveling for the firemen. The total cost to each company will be about $236 to initiate the service. The service will be similar to that now used in the Lancaster City, Quarryville and Ephrata areas. Senior Citizens Plan Banquet The final meeting of the season for the Senior Citizens will be held on Thursday, June 20 at 5:30 p.m. at the Lititz Recreation Center at which time a completely catered banquet will be served.

The program for the evening, following the banquet, will be presented by the “Grand Square Dance Club” who will demonstrate the technique of square dancing under the direction of Paul Andrews. The Senior Citizens will be invited to participate in the dancing. Club meetings will be adjourned for the months of July and August. The advisors for the Senior Citizens are Mrs. Forbes Emsweller and Mrs. Marguerite Rider. Mrs. Emsweller has reported that the final count on the soap that the club members collected and sent to Richard Corton in Viet Nam was 375 pounds of soap. Chicken Com Soup And Bake Sale At Penryn A Chicken Corn Soup Sale and Bake Sale, sponsored by the Penryn Fire Company will be held at the Penryn Church Grove on Saturday, June 22 starting at 10 a.m. till ?

Saturday The “Shop in Lititz Jackpot” Saturday grew to $80 and $120 as neither of the winners were present to accept their cash prizes. Tom Kenyon, representing the Lititz Retailers’ Association, drew the names in the third weekly drawing before a large downtown crowd. Seven names were for $10 gift certificates and the winners were mailed their certificates. The two cash drawings, one for $90 and another for $60, have to be claimed on the spot or the money goes back into the pot for the following week. That is what happened Saturday when Barbara Myers drew the names of Elam B. Hollinger, 629 S. Broad St., for $90 and Fannie Gehman, Lititz R.3, for $60. Since neither were on hand, the cash jackpots next week will be $120 and $80. While all entry cards will be held for the grand prize drawing for the 1968 Chevy II at the end of the 12-week contest, it will be necessary to re-register each week for the weekly gift certificates and cash bonus drawings.
