May 31, 1971, to a new locatien on top of a hill about two miles south of Myth on Highway 4. We will be able to provide more adequate
displiy areas and many other facilities for our customers including lots of parking space. We will also be able to provide you with more of
our own products. Look for our new location sign on top of the hill two miles south of Blyth on Highway 4. We are looking forward to
seeing you at this our final annual Factory Outlet Sale at this location and invite you to visit us next year at our new location.

As everyone knows, little
girls like getting presents just
as much as grown-up girls do.
Most grown-up girls know how
to say thank you -- anything •
from a home-baked pie to an
embrace that curls a guy's work
boots right up until the toes
touch his shinbone. But one big
problem with little girls is to
get them to write thank-you
letters.
I now have a system. When
ours hit the ripe old age of
eight late in August, I made the
usual polite suggestions about
thank-you letters and got
nowhere. So a few days later, a
hot and humid one, I set her
up, craftily. I told her I would
take her swimming.
She ran and got her bathing
suit. "Let's go," she said.
"Right," I said. "As soon as
you have written your thank-you
letters."
It was a dirty trick, but it
worked. At such times, she can
be a very fast writer. Also, we
have an understanding. She i s
allowed to write the letters seal
them and address them without
having them checked by us. The
lack of inhibition helps her speed.
Idcidentally, it seems to please
the people who receive them„
Quite often they mention them and
say something like: "We got a
kick out of what she said about
you." And I can only smile stiffly
and wonder what the heck it was.
But this time, despite her
eagerness to swim, she actually
wrote one letter in rough and
then copied it, for a lady she
really likes. She left the rough
around, .I have it here, for the
scientific' study of all parents.
"Dear Mrs. Deyell," she
wrote. "Thank you for the puz-
ell. The cake was delicious. It
was pretty, too. We finished the
puzell in tour days time, Sunday
to Wednesday. I am working
at the cake but Daddy and Mummy
say it makes them fat so I have
to eat it all myself.
"Thank you for a very nice
present and cake. Your truly
from Astrid Young."
But then, down at the bot-
tom, she had written: "Every
Body Loves Some Body SOME-
TIMES!"
I keep staring at that. The
way I see it, it was an after-
thought. This lady, Mrs. Deyell,
has been very kind to our child
- as witness the cake. This had
green icing about an inch thick
streaked to look like grass. At
one side was a little cottage that
had been built on top of the cake
with graham crackers , using
icing as mortar.
In front of this cottage were
two green icing trees, like pines,
the icing stuck on ice cream
cones and swirled to give the
pointed effect. And arrayed
around the green-icing lawn were
the only things one couldn't eat -
small plaster figures of Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs.
I have no doubt that from
looking at that setup for nearly
a week as she ate her way
through it, our daughter came to
realize how much love had gone
into making the cake.
But that still leaves a ques-
tion. When she wrote the im-
mortal line, Every Body Loves
Som e Body SOMETIMES!, did she
mean that she realized Mrs.
Deyell must have loved her when
she made the cake? Or did she
mean that in looking at the cake,
she loved Mrs. Deyell for making
it?
I mast ask her sometime. But
I won't count too heavily on the
answer. You know how kids are.
One minute they are heart-and-
soul involved. The next, it is.
"What letter?" Or even: "What
cake?"
The important word is love.
As long as adults hear it once
in a while from their own child-
ren, or others around them, the
rest of the world looks pretty
good.
