In New York you can get the time, the weather, or a prayer. In Philadelphia it's the stock reports. In Boston a voice tells bird watchers what's to be watched in the park. * 4 Over in Europe, they go further. Vienna offers a five-minute fairy tale for kids. In Switzerland you can get the news in any of three languages. And a couple of places have "talking menus" for desperate housewives. From where I sit, it doesn't matter if ideas are put out by telephone, through editorials, or jn person--as long as we can take them or leave them. I happen to like a glass of beer with my supper. You may prefer coffee, tea or branch water. Well, there's no harm in "listening" to another's opinions . .. but if he should try to force them on you, it's always an American's privilege to simply "hang up!"

The fire, of undetermined origin, quickly ignited the dry hay in the barn and before the fife department could reach the scene had engulfed the barn in flames. The fire started about 2:30 or 3 p.m.: and children returning from school were very concerned about the horses stabled there. The eight horses were out in the pasture so none were injured but five or six saddles, several bridles and an old two-door sleigh were lost. Mr. Reuter owns four horses, George Erber, one, Vicki Johnson, one, and Sharon LaGreca, two. A new barn will probably be built closer to the woods for future usg.
