wearing apparel at very
reasonable prices for the past
six months.
The store has one unique
feature. It is operated by
ladies from the Catholic,
Lutheran, United and Men-
nonite churches in the village,
and all proceeds are divided
four ways, to be used by the
individual churches for their
particular charities.
The idea for such a store
originated with some women
in the Mennonite congrega-
tion who were already
periodically dropping off
bundles of used clothing at
Gerry Gingerich's Share
Craft store to be sent on to the
Mennonite Central
Committee.
In early January, the Men-
nonite WMSC sent a letter to
the other three churches,
outlining the basic concept of
a store staffed and maintain-
ed by the four denominations,
with all profits divided
equally.
The response was im-
mediate and enthusiastic. The
four ladies appointed by their
churches as representatives
began meeting to iron out
specific details. Joan Smith

Brownies and Guides,
need more. leaders
What is going to happen to
the Brownies and Girl Guides
of Zurich and area? The
Brownie leaders need an
adult to help them this year.
And leaders will be needed for
Guides. If no one volunteers
there will be no program. It
would be a shame to have this
get started just to have it
phased out. What will these
girls do?
Your co-operation, support
and assistance is needed in
order to continue.
Parents of girls from ages
6-12 that are interested in
Brownies and Girl Guides are
asked to contact .Bonnie
Keller or Diane Leibold.
Give a young girl a place to
better herself.

week-long turn.
The shop opened in March,
occupying one end of the
Share Craft store. The space,
shelving bins and a clothing
rack were all supplied by
Gerry Gingerich. Cleve
Gingerich donated a large cir-
cular rack he had been hired
to build for the store. With
such low overhead and all

set-up loan of $100 to purchase
a mop, broom, dustpan and
other needed items was
repaid within the first month.
The New to You business
takes in between $60 and $90
per week. Considering the

Thursdays and Fridays bet-

Mothers come looking for
playclothes for their children,

large supply of baby clothing,
invariably outgrown before
it's outworn. Uniforms are
another popular seller.
Every attempt is made to
keep the stock current; no
longer fashionable crimp
dresses can be purchased by
quitters for 25t each.
Sorting is more fun than
pricing, one volunteer said.
The staff don't want to over-
price, although onelady jok-
ed a price tag of $15 might be
considered for a Paris
original.
Donations of clothing may
be dropped off at the store at
any time. The contact ladies

through the items, keeping
