First, an overall plan had to be made of the yard, and thanks to the efforts of McCloud and Scatchard this is now available. This beautiful drawing, contributed by this firm, is now on view in the Mueller House.

Mrs. Harold Zander heads this group and the following avid gardeners have volunteered to take on the herb garden project: Mrs. Hiram Eberly, chairman, Mrs. Curtis Amidon, Mrs. Paul Balmer, Mrs .Clyde Benner, Mrs. Valentine Brobst, Mrs. Ford Gochenaur, Mrs. Charles Landis, Jr., Mrs. Howard Lebo, Mrs. Howard Minnich, Mrs. Edward C.

Meeting with the group last week he gave an excellent talk on his favorite hobby. He explained how his garden wakens early in spring to provide new zest for the salad bowl with the new tarragon leaves and the first green shoots of chives. From then on until frost one never leaves the garden empty handed. There are always flowers and fragrant foliage for the house; new seasonings for the meat loaf, fresh green leaves for the salad. By October the gardener can look over a row of small glass jars holding the dried leaves of the cooking herbs — sage, summer savory, sweet basil, winter savory, spearmint, sweet marjoram, tarragon, rosemary and dill.

Members of the Brunnerville and Rothsville Fire Companies are assisting the Supervisors in placing Poison Feeding Stations in these areas.

This program will be continued as long as is necessary to control the problem. of each herb as it comes to bloom, at the peak of fragrance, are brought into the house. These are plants with a long history of usefulness to mankind, in medicine, in cooking, and for many pleasant purposes around the house. Some of these were used by the Indians for centuries, but many date back to ancient Egypt. Who knows but that the increasing interest in raising herbs might make the modern TV dinners palatable. The Lititz Historical Foundation will sponsor its eighth annual Antique Show and Sale at the Bobst Recreation Center, Lititz, July 3 and 4. The show, held jointly with the Annual Fourth of July Candle Pageant in the Lititz Springs Park, is for the benefit of restoration of the Johanna Mueller House and its adjoining grounds, purchased as a home for the Foundation, and the Kline Barn, located on Front and Water Streets, Lititz. The show is under the chairmanship of Mrs. Glenn McElroy of Lititz. A large portion of the restoration of the Meuller House has been accomplished from the proceeds of previous antique shows sponsored by the Foundation. Located at 137-139 East Main Street, Lititz, the house was built in 1792 and is an excellent example of the architecture so typical of Lititz in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is furnished in an authentic manner, typical of many artisan’s homes in Lititz at that time. Also of interest are the museum rooms, displaying an outstanding collection of Lehn-ware and other rare artifacts. The Mueller House is open Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Holidays from 1:00 p.m. until 4 p.m. Thirty exhibitors from Maryland, New York and Pennsylvania will display and sell a At a meeting Monday night of about 80 teachers of the Warwick Education Association it was voted unanimously to contact the school hoard in an attempt to arrange a meeting. The teachers meeting was held to decide on a course of action following the school board’s support of Dr. Curvin Smith, superintendent, ove r Dr. Smith’s resignation hassle with the WEA. The teachers decided on this course of action rather than call for an outside investigation, according to Douglas Minnich, president and William Hazlett, vice president. ; They said they were attempting to resolve their differences with the board and Smith without outside help. And, that two members of the board had contacted them suggesting a meeting. Evidently several board members and a committee from the WEA will attempt to meet next week. Minnich and Hazlett both expressed hope that such a meeting could be arranged. It was not made clear what part Dr. Smith would play in any meeting. However, Tuesday there was a meeting with, two board members, Minnich, Hazlett and Dr. Smith. Raymond Groff, a board member from Rothsville, said “there definitely would be a meeting” but he was not certain as to the participants. Last Friday Minnich and Hazlett spoke out in response to the board’s action on Tuesday. They released a statement about their conflict and included a list of “unsatisfactory conditions” about which they claim nothing has been done despite recurring complaints by faculty. The 12 points: 1— Lack of definite administrative action against students who are chronic offenders of school regulations; 2— Lack of consistency in enforcing regulations; 3— Lack of support for individual teacher discipline by the administration; 4— Lack of concern to keep and attract experienced teachers; 5— The inordinate ability of laymen to bring undue pressure to bear on purely educational concerns; 6— The failure of administrators to consider teacher recommendations on educational decision; 7— The failure to coordinate educational programs in the elementary system; 8— A lack of concern for (Continued on Page 5) variety of antiques including furniture, Historical China, Class Wares, Lamps, Book and General Antiques.

Whole leaves of herb teas are also preserved. Through the summer cuttings N O T I C E EARLY PUBLICATION NEXT WEEK The Record-Express will publish Wednesday next week due to the July 4th holiday.

Embarks On Rat Control Program The Warwick Township Supervisors have embarked on a “Rat Control” program in areas throughout the Township where this problem exists. Members of the Brunnerville and Rothsville Fire Companies are assisting the Supervisors in placing Poison Feeding Stations in these areas. The Supervisors are taking every precaution in the protection of animals, however they ask the residents of the Township not to allow dogs or cats to run at large as the Supervisors cannot be responsible for their safety. This program will be continued as long as is necessary to control the problem. of each herb as it comes to bloom, at the peak of fragrance, are brought into the house. These are plants with a long history of usefulness to mankind, in medicine, in cooking, and for many pleasant purposes around the house. Some of these were used by the Indians for centuries, but many date back to ancient Egypt. Who knows but that the increasing interest in raising herbs might make the modern TV dinners palatable. The Lititz Historical Foundation will sponsor its eighth annual Antique Show and Sale at the Bobst Recreation Center, Lititz, July 3 and 4. The show, held jointly with the Annual Fourth of July Candle Pageant in the Lititz Springs Park, is for the benefit of restoration of the Johanna Mueller House and its adjoining grounds, purchased as a home for the Foundation, and the Kline Barn, located on Front and Water Streets, Lititz. The show is under the chairmanship of Mrs. Glenn McElroy of Lititz. A large portion of the restoration of the Meuller House has been accomplished from the proceeds of previous antique shows sponsored by the Foundation. Located at 137-139 East Main Street, Lititz, the house was built in 1792 and is an excellent example of the architecture so typical of Lititz in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is furnished in an authentic manner, typical of many artisan’s homes in Lititz at that time. Also of interest are the museum rooms, displaying an outstanding collection of Lehn-ware and other rare artifacts. The Mueller House is open Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Holidays from 1:00 p.m. until 4 p.m. Thirty exhibitors from Maryland, New York and Pennsylvania will display and sell a At a meeting Monday night of about 80 teachers of the Warwick Education Association it was voted unanimously to contact the school hoard in an attempt to arrange a meeting. The teachers meeting was held to decide on a course of action following the school board’s support of Dr. Curvin Smith, superintendent, ove r Dr. Smith’s resignation hassle with the WEA. The teachers decided on this course of action rather than call for an outside investigation, according to Douglas Minnich, president and William Hazlett, vice president. ; They said they were attempting to resolve their differences with the board and Smith without outside help. And, that two members of the board had contacted them suggesting a meeting. Evidently several board members and a committee from the WEA will attempt to meet next week. Minnich and Hazlett both expressed hope that such a meeting could be arranged. It was not made clear what part Dr. Smith would play in any meeting. However, Tuesday there was a meeting with, two board members, Minnich, Hazlett and Dr. Smith. Raymond Groff, a board member from Rothsville, said “there definitely would be a meeting” but he was not certain as to the participants. Last Friday Minnich and Hazlett spoke out in response to the board’s action on Tuesday. They released a statement about their conflict and included a list of “unsatisfactory conditions” about which they claim nothing has been done despite recurring complaints by faculty. The 12 points: 1— Lack of definite administrative action against students who are chronic offenders of school regulations; 2— Lack of consistency in enforcing regulations; 3— Lack of support for individual teacher discipline by the administration; 4— Lack of concern to keep and attract experienced teachers; 5— The inordinate ability of laymen to bring undue pressure to bear on purely educational concerns; 6— The failure of administrators to consider teacher recommendations on educational decision; 7— The failure to coordinate educational programs in the elementary system; 8— A lack of concern for (Continued on Page 5) variety of antiques including furniture, Historical China, Class Wares, Lamps, Book and General Antiques.
