These were just a few of the suggestions of those attending. -There are many talented people in this area who possibly would share their knowledge with others. They do not have to be senior citizens, it is open to all age -s who would be willing to help in many ways. The program is for all deno- minations and it was 'decided to mail invitations out to nine different organizations in the area to come to the next meeting. By the time you are reading this write up, you should have received your invitation. If each of the groups would try to get a car load to- attend, • asking the seniors in their groups who might not have a ride other- wise, think of the goodwill you could be spreading. Many have expressed their support and hopes for this type • of program but we would. like 'to see them coming out to the meetings, giving their ideas! The next. meeting will be held on August 16th at 2 p.m. Your presence would be appreciat- ed. See you then. Joe and Teresa Courtney visited Frank Sullivan on Tuesday, taking Frank out for a drive.
