Greetings From Former Residents^ I was most, happy to receive word from Barb Muszalski, the former Barb Schlick, who now resides in Redwood City, Calif., where Jim is employed. Jim and Barb love it there. and Barb says " she still reada my column most faithfully etfery week." It was nice hearing from you Barb, so we all send a big Hi to you and Jim, ^ind we are so glad you're keeping in touch with the Highlands news. It is always nice to be remembered by fornher residents. Also had a card and note from Howard and Fran Mc- Creery who now live in Riverside^ Calif., where Howard is a real estate broker. They both love California but miss their friends in the„ ^Highlands where they had ms(de their home for several yearS. Hope we hear from you all more often in 1964. Mount Hope Church News Sunday, Dec. 29, was observed as student recognition day. It is always held during the time that the young people are home from college over the Christmas holidays.

Please Drive Careful On Broadway Now that all the kiddies are trying their new Christmas sleds out by going down our hill on Broadway, please be very careful^ There have been two very close calls the past two weeks, both times, I stood horrified. The children in the Highlands refer to this hill as suicide hill. Let's hope it does not become more than the title. Sliding is a wonderful sport for children of all ages and we are lucky to be blessed with so many hills for this sport, be especially careful" when you come off Meadow Hill Lane.

Mr. Nato of Broadway, enjoyed a vacation during the holidays. Once again some one is trying to break into the community center. All the locks were jammed. It is a shame we can't have one place safe from vandals in the Highlands.
