Young, a former con­ sultant to a major food corporation and a professional in the food service field, will present a program on the "Mystique of Chinese Cookery". The purpose of the presentation is to unravel the mysteries of Oriental cuisine and encourage American women to use their creative talents in the preparation of meals with far eastern appeal. A f t e r c o n d u c t i n g workshops and demon­ strations for a major food corporation and a leading southeastern university, and continuing to serve as a consultant in the food preparation field from time to time, Mrs. Young motivates others to develop, their own cooking creatively. To make home delivered meals available to homebound seniors, there is a real need for caring per­ sons to pick up meals from one of the eight Meet & Eat sites in the county and deliver them to senior's homes.

A Spring 1980 wedding is planned. Grandma EASTER, time o' new life, new begin nin's for all o God's creatures. Would that it might be a new beginning f'r th' whole wide world. What a wonderful world it'd be, if Love were th' guidin' theme, an' no one had t' worry about war, 'r any o' th' troublesome sitiations, besetting' folks these days. This granny r' members a time, when things were peaceful here in our America. People were content, mostly, wi' a lot less'n we have t'day. We had enough t'eat, a little left o'er f'r th' simple pleasures we enjoyed then, be'fore th' autimobile b'came so im­ portant. Folks traveld a lot, by way o' Shank's Mare, an' the' street-cars took us on longer trecks. They pervided th' best, non-pollutin' tran­ sportation we've e'er had, an' it seems a shame that we fell into th' trap, o' th' more luxurious way o' life. It's sort of' done us in, so t' speak. One o' th' sadest things, me thinks, is th' way folks f'rgot t' be grateful. Parents found that career borin', an' interferin' wi' th' freedom t' do as they did b'fore th' tots came, 'stead o' realizin' th' gift o' a life, giv'n f'r 'em t' shape, an' train, like a beautiful plant, t' grow an' develope into a fine person, able t' pass on th' heritage o' love an' fellowship. Seems like we've been drawn into many cir­ c u m s t a n c e b y a t r y i n ' t ' b e th' good fellow. At least that's what th' people ha' been led t' believe. This day finds us in th' middle o' a dilemma, so t' speak. Maybe we'd a been better off t' put th' effort t' cleanin' our own house. Seems we've furnished th' means f'r other countries t' study war agin' one another. So much t' think a b o u t a n ' b e s o r r y f ' r . There's all th' answers in th' Good Book. It's amazin' how th' teachin's fit th' pattern o' our society, t'day. At this time o' year, folks, all o'er th' world refeict on th' Great Miracle, some questioning thl authenticity o' th' age-old writin's, but centuries ago societies went through much th' same problems as we have now, an' suffered th' con­ sequences. Mqybe it's time t' take inventory an' try t' turn th' tide toward th' best healer, love, in this tired ol' world.
