^eedthe kitty” donation urged
1 by pat howarth
Ort lire day before Good
Friday, participants arrived to
find the Center beautifully dec-
orated with white tablecloths
with Easter egg decorations by
Mildred Ehiers and Aurelia
Michalik. Each place also had a
basket of candy goodies and a
hand printed Easter greeting
from the Blessing Girl Scout
I Troop. An excellent turkey dinn-
er with trimmings was served for
the noon meal. It was a great
send off for the Easter holiday.
The meal donation box on the
'de$k by the Center entrance now
ihas (to us) a realistic, hand
fdfawn cat. The artist is Center
^director, Stan Woodmansee. Let-
tering under the cat picture is a
plea'to'‘feedthe kitty.” This is a
'subtle suggestion that it is not
possible to operate on a free meal
(basiA. The suggested minimum
{donation is 55 cents, well within
the means of jpst about every-
body. Donation, is according to

museums are geared to attract
visitors with almost any interest.

different museum each year.

It goes without saying that to
keep this valuable adjunct to
senior life style, its excellent
meals and a great variety of
activities, each of us is encour-
aged to “feed the kitty.”
A continuation of "nutrition
trivia" from Dr. John Mayer’s
Houston Post article: Did you
ever wonder about the difference
between brown and white eggs?
Egg shell color has no bearing on
the nutritional value of the egg. It
is simply a regional thing.
According to the article in the
days before modem transporta-
tion and storage, locally produc-
ed eggs were preferred. Sifter
hens in New England breed
brown eggs, homemakers there
used brown eggs. In New York,
the opposite is true. Your writer

The Palacios City Council
paid tribute to the late Johnnie
Heard during last week’s regu-
lar meeting. Heard, who had
served on the council for the
past 16-years, died at the age
of 63 on March 30 following a
lengthy illness.
Members of the Heard fami-
ly, including his widow Doris
and children James and John-
nie Jr., were present for the
tribute. Mrs. Heard was pre-
sented with a framed photo-
graph of her husband and the
family later had their pictures
taken with council members.
A framed picture of the late
councilman was also placed as
a permanent marker on the
council's chamber wall.
The following tribute to
Councilman Heard was read by
councilman Johnny Sardelich:
“Friend in every sense of the
word. This was what this man
was, friend to all, young and
old.
"Courage-When things got
rough in the city government;
when he was offered an
invitation to resign, he simply’
said ‘The people elected n*S,
I’ll continue to serve!’.- 'And
serve he did, faithfully for
16-years, longer than anyone
before him. i ' i: ' •
“Johnnie was a quui mss
choosing to live his Hfe by
setting examples; with prided
his home, family; church, i ’
community service and in his
work.
"Johnnie had a rare quality,
which all mankind needs mow1'
of. Simply stated by those of us
who knew him and worked with
him-Johnnie never had a bed
word to say about anyone.
"Johnnie, we miss you, but
we all know that you were
called home to the Father,
because he needed you.
"Palacios and the people in
it are a better place for a man
like Johnnie H^tnJ; to '
passed our way. Mm1'!1
“We need more mr
Johnnie Heard.”
