Penny Fund
At 1/16 Mile
COLEMAN DSMOtRAT-VOICr
The campaign to raise a
mile of pennies, 84,480 or
16 pennies per foot, has
now passed the 1/16 mile
post or $52.80. The pennies
are being collected by
Friends of the Library to
be designated for furnish-
ings for the children’s sec-
tion of the library when it
moves to remodeled quar-
ters.
Fruit jars with identify-
ing labels are now in the
library, Coleman Bank
lobby and newspaper of-
tice. Citizens are urged to
look through their homes
for those extra pennies,
and drop them in the jars.
The benefit is twofold-get
pennies back in circulation
and help a worthy cause.
The children's area of
the remodeled library will
be much larger, and quite a
big of furniture will be
required.
Preacher: “Why don’t you •
come to church?” Amos:
“Too many sinners there.”
Preacher: “Well, one more
won’t hurt.”

George Plimpton Wouldn't Tell
You About This $50 Intellivision
Rebate. But We Will.
George Plimpton
doesn’t think you should VBH
buy a Mattel Electronics Intellivision
because of a rebate offer. He thinks you should buy one
because he feels itk the best system. And we agree.
Nevertheless, from August 16 until September 18,
1982 you can get a $50 cash rebate after the purchase of
an Intellivision Master Component
That makes buying the Intellivision video game
system even better.

One Need
There is little doubt that
the best assurance of a good
and happy life during the
golden years is good health.
If one is active and vigorous,
many things are possible.
One can work and play, go
and do, one can enjoy life
to the fullest.
But, what is next? Money,
• of course, everyone needs
money. Nothing is free in
this world, these times.
Along with health and
money, there is another per-
sonal need. One must have
friends. Friends provide a
protective shield against
endless hours of loneliness
and boredom. Friends pro-
vide an area of concern and
a sounding board for ideas
and opinions.
If one had all of the a-
bove—health, money,
friends—would there be any
further need? Some senior
citizens have another
need—a need for tolerance.
With age often comes
complete frankness. Age
usually speaks its mind. Age
forgets, sometimes, what it
was like to be young and
brash, to be inexperienced
and prone to errors of judg-
ment. Age can be caustic
rather than understanding
When age is given to in
tolerance, much is wasted
The wisdom of the years is
not put into play, is not
made available to youth
that is so much in need.
Youth sorely needs the wis-
dom that only age may
provide.
So, be happy, in good
health, in wisdom—with
tolerance.

stand it was a big success.
Congratulations to Udell

day we had 15. Friday we
played Center Games.
Anna Simmons, Coy Han-
son, Sudie Wilkins,

reach Leader, takes those

the grocery store, pay bills

this service you should call
24 hours before, so Myrtle
can set up her bus route,
besides this, you get to eat
a delicious meal with your
friends on Monday, Wed-
nesday and Friday.
The meal contributions
that you donate make the
difference in funding we
receive and what it cost to
operate the program. Your
donations are especially
needed now as our fiscal
year draws to a close.
