The project is sponsored by American Legion Auxiliaries, and Gloria was sent by the Lititz Auxiliary. It is set up in the ¡form of a government of a mythical state, and also includes municipalities county governments and municipalities. Gloria was nominated for “¡Mayor” of her “town,” but there ¡was a tie vote. To settle it, the girls drew ¡straws, and Gloria lost. ¡However, this was compensated for by her being elected a councilman. Part of the experience is for girls to Write articles about Keystone State for their home town papers, and Gloria’s account of the activities will appear next week. IT’LL STILL ONLY COST A NICKEL to park in spite of the fancy new paint job being applied to Lititz parking meters by somet'ime-summer-painter Lem Sipe. During the other three seasons Sipe teaches history and geography at Lebanon High School, but comes the summertime and a job with the Borough makes it possible to work out-doors. It also was a good time to do it because nobody was parking along East Main on account of the square being torn up. Two Lititz students had perfect averages of 4.00 at Pennsylvania State University and are on the Dean’s list for the Spring term. They are Janet Reidenbaugh, 414 Front ‘ woodcrest Ave., and Sarah Street and pulled out on Wa-jB. Northrup, Lititz R-3. ter ¡Street, colliding with a car driven by J.

He is the son of Mr. and Mrs. John Hevener, Jr., Lititz R2. The young people are endeavoring to instill a love of nature and instruction in the care of small animals in a weekly Nature Course in which children from four to ten years of age are enrolled. They meet once a week at the Hevener’s home, and their projects include guinea pigs, tadpoles, turtles, cats and dogs. They are taught how to take care of these animals, and the smaller children also cut out pictures of animals and paste them on large placards. Three of the children participating are “Fresh Air” children: Adrianne Gladden, seven, of New York, Chanie Carlton, thirteen, of Baltimore, who are both staying with Mr. and Mrs. Paul R. Houchin. 404 Woodcrest Ave., and Jennie Laino, eleven, of New York, who is staying with the Heveners. The latter two are helping the instructors.
