Zurich Citizens News, 1971-09-23, Page 34PAGE 14 ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 1971 rom my w indow If you think you are reading any light, local drivle here, forget it. This column gets around and goes further afield than even this writer ever im- agined. My mail (I usually get one or two letters per year) this week comes from Los Angeles, Cal- ifornia and even though it is unsigned (at least I don't think that last scratch is a signature) I just had to remark about it. The first few lines are quite readable. They say, To Mrs. Shirley Keller, Dear Madam. I read what you said about the Kennedys... and then it goes on about this and that, most of it non -readable. Now I'm trying to think what it was I wrote about the Kenn- edys. I do recall a recent col- umn in which I said that it was too bad that the memory of a dead Jack Kennedy has to be marred by dredging up nasty little charges to which he can- not answer now, But I don't remember anything else. Anyway, my reader in Los Angeles (must be the only one) says that he (or she) is a south- erner whose grandfather was a rebel and whose grandmother was colored, This person also admits to having Indian blood although he or she is a "real American. " Doesn't that sound like an ecumencial kind of background? The writer draws some really fascinating conclusions from my column and most of them surprise me greatly. Frankly, I'm somewhat flattered that this person found so much in these columns because as far as I'm concerned, quite a few of them are rather shallow. But that's not what my reader in Los Angeles thinks. For instance, he (or she) writes, "Your kind yell at any- body, the Northern way." I wasn't aware that yelling took on directions or that I'd been yelling at all. "You and your fine ways, " the letter 'continues. "You think you can tell people what About People You Know ... Miss Pearl Wurtz is a patient in South Huron Hospital, Exeter, Mrs. Laura Haberer is a pat- ient in St. Joseph's Hospital, London. Mr. and Mrs. Don Oke and Mr. and Mrs. Jim Hogg return- ed home on Saturday after a two-week vacation through the western provinces. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Oesch and family have moved into the home owned by Ivan Kalbfleisch Main Street, Zurich. DICK and DAVE'S PLUMB['''."G and ELECTRICAL Dick Rau Dave Durand 264607 565-5281 °Service thet Satisfies" 1 BY SHIRLEY J. KELLER to think. My grandfather was a rebel. My grandmother was colored. She didn't give my mother away. She was a hard working woman." Now the subject seems to have changed. Now my reader seems to be concerned about the welfare of children and working mothers and I'm now trying to recall what it was I said about that subject that has brought such a furious attack. "Our women don't work, " my writer continues. "We have in- come so leave us alone, You like to meddle and make it worse, who adopt no halfbreed. , At least some of us can keep children. Don't ever need wel- fare as we know how to raise children. So you Canadians are cursed wtttt ualibreeds. " Now the mood has changed again. Now it is a strictly racial problem and I'm wreck- ing my brains trying to rememb- er what I said about that topic in recent weeks... but I keep coming up blank. It sounds to me as though this particular column -reader is against working women, wom en who have an opportunity to speak their minds, and maybe even Canadians in general. And this column has brought out the literary side in this Huron County SOUTH person and prompted him (or her) to put it down in pen and ink. But most of all, this writer dislikes the Kennedy family, particularly Robert F. Kennedy and even Martin Luther King, who he (or she) refers to as the Black Hitler. He (or she) says they "betray- ed the colored people" and they are now "resting in hell." The oddest part about this rather puzzling bit of corresp- ondence is that it is written on the back of what appears to be a church letter. The message on the church document is so in contrast to the letter it is difficult to imagine they could come from the same house. The church article reads: It Card f Ed cation is good to know that there is never a time when we cannot turn to God in prayers and re- ceive His wisdom, guidance and inspiration. He not only fills us with faiths and confid- ence, but shows us how to re- ceive more of His goodness. We see you filldd with faith in the sure knowledge that God works through you, opening the way for you to receive and "whatever you ask in prayer, you will receive, if you have faith," I don't know how this certain reader got hold of my column. If he reads this one, I hope he (or she) will set me straight if I have misinterpreted his (or her) intentions in his (or her) rather difficult ro read lever.
