1232 N. Gn Remembering When (with long time subscribersJ MR. AND MRS. OTTO ADAMS Otto "Ody" Adams was born on a farm north of Johnsburg and was one of eight boys in the family. Six of the sons are still living, Adams said. In 1925, he married Coletta Freund, who was also born on a farm north of Johnsburg, and they had three sons. "We did a lot of fishing and hunting when we were kids," Otto recalled. "There were very few homes by the lakes and the river." He remembered the winter days when he worked cutting ice to earn a little spending money. "That was before electric refrigeration," Adams noted. After a few years of working on farms, Otto went to work for Hettermann's Central garage and stayed there for nine years. He was a partner in Adams and Freund implement and then built Adams Repair shop on Chapel Hill road. He retired in 1963, leaving the shop to one of his sons. Otto was the captain of the original Company II Fire department (Johnsburg) which started in 1954. Adams has always been involved with cars, starting in 1918 when he built an automobile from scratch. The car had three wheels, two in front and one in the rear, and was powered by an Indian motorcycle engine. In the 1950's the Adams family built and raced midget racing cars. The Plaindealer has been in Otto's family for as long as he can remember. Grandma Scz • • • Community Calendar VJUUUUUUUUl AJUULl Some time ago, this person said, many times, that if th* "Three-score an' ten," rolled around, life'd be full, an' satisfyin'. As each year is added, somethin' new crops up, t' pervide new int'rest, an' zest t' th' desire t' prolong th' borried time, since that day arrived, some years ago. "Each new day, is th' first day of th' rest o' your life," someone said, not long ago. When one takes that idee seriously, life takes on a stimulatin' quality, like addin' th' dressin' t' th' salad, sort o'. T' be able t' get about, e'en vi' th' help o' a cane, 'r such, seems that th' urge t' keep a goin' takes o'er, an' one feels th' need t' "Git things done." T' have good friends, is a real blessin'. This ol' lady used t' say, that each friend, added t' one's life, is lik$ addin' another flower to„a beautiful bouquet, enhancin' its beauty. Life, wi'out friends, 'd be sad, indeed, but it takes a little givin' o' oneself, and out-goin' attitude, o' lovin' affection, f r ones neighbor, t' make a friend o' him, 'r her.

One day, they find they're devoid o' friends, alone an' lonely. One o' th' greatest gifts among mankind, is th' gift o' friendship, an' this granny has been th' recipient o' a great deal o' that product o' th' human heart. A great feelin' o' gratitude, wells up in me heart f r th' kindnesses b'stowed by friends, 'n neighbors, o'er all these years. Th' social societies, which ha' come about in'th' last few years, has been a boon t' those elders, who may find 'emselves alone, f'r th' reason that th' friends they had, 're gone t' their reward. It's ne'er too late t' make new friends, an' though it takes courage t' step out, an' socialize, as one meets th' later years, th' reward is great. We, all, need one another, one way 'r t'other, an' it b'hooves us t' make th' effort, an' not be backward about meeting' new folks. One ne'er knows, it might make f'r a new int'rest in life, t' make a new friend. Grandma Radtke It's obvious that solar energy is on the way.

I know I should be cheerful and accept it. But at this. I'm very impatient. I feel as if life is y quickly. So much of the time I am crabby. Life Passing Her By Q. I am a victim of multiple sclerosis. I'm 39 and have had it for 10 years. I'm not good passing me by quickly. So much of the time I am crabby. When I talk I feel as if nobody listens. I feel as if my thoughts are jumbled so words don't come out right. I'd love to be a good conversationalist and to feel accepted by people. Please help me. A. You are bearing a heavy burden and perhaps you feel resentful that you can't enjoy life as others -do. Resentment drains vitality; it causes depression and creates a low self- esteem. It's a powerful state of mind. But, counter it with equal power. Say to yourself, I am a child of God, worthy and with much to give. Accept yourself, and others will too. With resentment out of the way you'll think more clearly and be more patient. Try it; you'll find it works.

We think they like us and they tell us that they do. But they flirt with other girls. My friend's guy is a junior in high school and so is my boyfriend. We are in the ninth grade. Please help us! We like them so much it's like we're in love. What can we do? A. The reason they flirt with other girls is simple. They Uke you, but they are smart enough to know at their age that they are just not ready to settle down with two teenage girls. Just be friends and don't push the love bit You will have a better relationship on that basis. If there is something you would like to ask Dr. and Mrs. Peale, write to them at Box 500, Pawling, N.

Pawling, N Y Change Attituc Q. What in partiality with daughter-she wrong. Now with her oldes world makes a parent so sick as to play older ir offspring? My husband did it to our < uld do nothing right and the other could do no r older daughter is doing the very same thing It is heartbreaking for us to watch. Would it help to sort of put a stipulation on the financial help we are giving her for some home improvements she wants so badly and to insist that "she change her attitude toward this child"? I'm not one for functioning on these principles but being so desperate I thought just maybe... A. It does very little good to take a "heart-breaking" attitude. Such emotional reactions are ineffective. A normal, intelligent treatment of another person, a loving concern, certainly without bargaining as you suggest, is likely to cause improvement better than any other reaction.
