Afc OPEN LETTER TO THE MFN OF WONDER LAKE Those of us who took the time to witness the few games played by our new.ly organized football team were very* much taken aback by the fact that we are so far behind In our program of athletics. It is very much surprising to us for the size of our community that we are so weak in supporting our future citizens, the boys and girls of Wonder Lake. The few who have witnessed those games thought it would he essential and profitable towardR our growing community to be recognized as one of the' leading progressive and cooperating communities in the county. In as much as there are several organizations in progress and are lOTMtlM* tpwl Later la TMUjr't MmIwi Offlttt Today's business employee lhrei in a mechanized mecca. An automatic letter-opener opens the morning mail. The employer calls his secretary on the interoffice communications system. She takes dictation on her stenotype machine, transcribes it on her typewriter, and a special machine automatically seals and stamps the envelope. When she catches up with her work, she reaches for the voice recorder for assignments dictated some hours earlier by her employer. When she is out to lunch, an electric secretary answers the phone, reels off a recorded .message and gives the caller 90 seconds to leave his own recorded message, then tells him to call again if he needs f more recording time. The accounting office zips up a neat and accurate column of figures on the automatic computing machines and makes entries with the speedy accounting machines-- more than 100 entries per minute. By a new electronic computer, complex mathematical problems are worked out 3,000 times faster than the human mind could solve them. Laborious filing methods are replaced by a microfilm system, puAch-card files, or the revolving wheel file. Unnamed devices speed work in every conceivable phase of business. How did it all start? They wouldn't believe it fS years ago. No machine invented could think--much less add! But a young WWc clerk in Auburn, N. Y., Aesmed of the machine that would free hlri of his high stool and relieve hil aching eyes and fingers pf endless hours of copytag and computing figures. $Mft4 TMaa Vtleoes Mtplapd at Tito UHiry Bltfiteea leather-covered easas containing a collectioa of ran and •scred Tibetan tooks arrived at Yale university library some time ago, after a six-months' Journey by pack train and steamer. The, M volumes within the hand made crates make up Tibet's holy "Kagyur." The collection was presented to Yale by His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. 14-year-old ruler of that remote land. The "Kagyur"--or "Kanjur" as it is known to American scholars --contains almost 1,100 seperate works attributed to the and is Immensely valuable te Sanskrit scholars because of its great accuracy. ' Each one of the 00 velumee war wrapped in orange cloth, symbolic of Tibetan reverence. The books measure two feet long by six inches wide and contain between 300 and 400 loose-leaf pages, block printed on both sides and held together by boards. The books were placed in wooden crates' and then the skins of yaks --Tibetan oxen--were bound around the crates, stretched tightly and sewn together with rawhide. His skins protected the books from the elements. A pack train of small Tibetan horses carried the collection from Lhasa, capital of Tibet, across a 1,000-mile mountain route to Hew Delhi, India. The crates were then sent to Calcutta and finally shipped by freighter to the United States The newly-acquired Yale collection is a Lhasa edition, which exists in this country only at Harvard university. It was first printed in the reign of the 10th Dalai Lama, who was enthroned in 1803 and died about 1933. Ireaing Bayea Ci When ironing rayon creplt €# jerseys always iron with the grain.

The "Golden Acre" plot was highly fertilized, and irrigated twice during the summer, according to the state Department of Agriculture, which reported the yields.
