You are either a native or you are not - but whatever,' you are as welcome as the crocus in spring and just as beautiful to your old firends, so don't be shy, say,"Hi, there", Many things have changed - - naturally. You expect that they have, but don't be sad or disappointed about it - take it - as you find it and try to remember the good old d'ays make great conversation and laughter and new friends too, as it gives them a different slant on things that they had not seen before. So, sharing your memories brings the old and new together again and you can start off with a new set of memories of a happy time in your old home town. Some of the decorations around town are to remind us that things were very dif- ferent in pibneer days. Enjoy them, you don't have to suffer any of their hardships - and sad to say, you can't really enjoy their good times, either,. but pitch in and join the spirit of Jubilee 3 - Today and NOW! A bit of nostalgia will be recalling the wonderful hot dogs you used to buy from Pete's Hot Dog Stand. Every night without fail for years Pete Zimmerman had his little old car which was a great little kitchen, emanating the enticing smells of meat and onions, dra-wing crowds from all around The Square - besides those who drove up especially Royal Bank hWhat wasbit that created a memory that you could never forget? Some say it was the type of weiners he served and the .way the onions were. cooked - never greasy or overcooked - ..and always served on a hot, 'not soggy bun WITH a smile and a bit of con- versation, That bit of conversation, I believe, was a big part of the deal. A friend who was always glad tosee you, who never forgot yoer name, who always had a smite -- it was Pete who drew you back. Well now, it is doubtful if the 111 ole Wagon will be on The Square but it will not be because it couldn't run that far. The wagon is in good shape. Pete cranks it up now and again for kicks. Its a 1923 or 25 model T and if they don't get to The Square you are welcome to go to the Zimmerman home where it is "resting". There is goint to be a great Soap Box Derby - and the Shirt Tail Parade - that's fun - and the bed races. CRAZEE! Some of you have seen some of the practice runs for the bed races - I thought I saw some getting ready with their shirt tail stuff, too. The Soap Box Derby starts at 9 o'clock in the morning Friday July 1 - West St. Be there early. The Bed races happen at 2 p.m. around The Square. At 8 p.m. take your friends to GDCI to enjoy some of the award winning plays written by- our own great writer and director Warren Robinson.
