She’s good and she’s pleasant!And, that’s a compliment to one of the people in this world who accepts her job in the right spirit. Whatever you are being paid to do - do it to the best of your ability.Tom Klei, safety director of Mt. Healthy was to operate a kissing booth during the recent Fair Day. Cost was $1 to any woman w ho had the cash and thecourage to face up to his pursed lips. The morning of Fair Day he came up with a bad case of chapped lips! Sorry girls!Oscar Ilolzhauser has an infectious personality that I first came to know many years ago when I sold shoesfor his father.John Lindjohn of Finneytown has a unique habit — if he borrows a cigarette from you, he puts down a nickel in payment. So you see why I said “When he borrows one’’ not “When he bums one”.Pierce Meyers gave me a good suggestion a while back when I stopped in Mooney’s Pharmacy to buy an old fashioned razor. He suggested a new-fangled double edged razor — and I have to admit it does a smooth shaving job. In fact, I may now even join Tom Klei in the kissing booth next year. I get sad thinking how many years since I’ve been invited to play “spin the bottle’’!How two lovely ladies such as Ginny Whinkler and Gladys Mastrullo can be so pleasant and cheerful at 6 a m. is a mystery to me. Yet, they’re the same every morning! I’d like to growl that early, but I don’t dare when I come up against their cheery “Good Morning”. Ginny is at Little Dutch and Gladys at Mt. Healthy Pastry.It’s comfortable and pleasant working with Ruth Gibbons, clerk of Mt. Healthy City Council. She is as efficient as she is easy to get along with.LOVE THAT BLL’KGR ASS STATE!We took our seats well down front, in the amphitheater at My Old Kentucky Home Park way down South in Bardstown, Ky. There were four of us; myself, Dotty and John and Betty Keehnen.The night was beautiful A soft breeze rustled the tree tops in a soft lullaby to the sleeping birds. Our human ears couldn’t hear the melody, but we could sense the sound of violins, and harpsichord, the bass viola and the solitary flute and faintly the tinkle of the banjo!A quarter moon edged its way across the starfilled sky. We settled back in relaxed comfort to hear the magnificent songs of Stephen Foster.There was a capacity crowd in the amphitheater - a quiet expectant crowd; young, middleaged and old!The lights dimmed and we sat, leaning forward tensely.There was an audible gasp from several hundred throats, merged into one note of expectancy, as the spot lights splashed wide and bright across the breadth of the stage turning back the pages of time to the year 1849 - 50 when a young song writer Stephen Foster was creating his own immortality with songs such as “Louisiana Belle**, “Nelly B!y’\ “Oh Susanna”, “Camptown Races’*. “Jeannie with the Light Brown llair”, “Old Folks at Home”, “Beautiful Dreamer” and “My Old Kentucky Home”.For more than two hours we sat entranced with the music and pageantry of the Stephen Foster Story. It lifted for a while the tensions and worries of our workaday world and encompassed us in the comfort and warmth of that romantic, imaginative era of so long ago of which we all have dreamed so many times.Story, costumes, direction, choreography, stagesettings, lighting, music, all were fantastic. I say seriously it could be a great television special! We loved it! The actors and actresses were the peoplewhose roles they assumed.While at Bardstown we took a side trip to Shaker-town and Fort Harrod. Both, fascinating experiences of looking back into the past of this great commonwealth of Kentucky.We not only learned a lot, we gained a greater insight into the problems our forefathers experienced inDID YOU KNOW THAT! art store will open the second week in Sep-in the Promenade Shopping Center in ForestWell w ■ mmummBy ART PETERSENa land devoid of the comforts and conveniences wetake for granted today.At Bardstown we walked through St. Joseph’s Cathedral built in 1819. The Cathedral houses nine master paintings by Van Bree. Murillo, Van Dyck, Van Eyck, Rubens and Jacob Hast. These, and the tabernacle and vestments were the gifts of Pope Leo XII, Louis Phillipe, king of France, and Francis I, king of Naples. St. Joseph was the first Catholic cathedral built west of the Alleghenies and the third in the U.S.Directly behind St. Joseph is Spalding Hall erectedin 1839 after fire destroyed theoriginal building in 1838During the Civil War it was used as a Union hospital.In 1911 it became St. Joseph Preparatory School and lasted as such until 1968. Today, it houses an historic museum, a restaurant and a pottery shop! (Interesting footnote) Fred llollmann of Melo-Age attended school at St. Joseph Preparatory school. He wouldn’t divulge the year.

I felt an affinity with the two that went a little beyond simple friendship - I measured our relationship with the yardstick of affection.And, this comes from a heart pricked by the thorn of sorrow - a heart buoyed up though by the reassuring memory of an ebullient personality who so frequently referred to me as “Mr. Community.”I hope she knew that within my*heart she held a special niche reserved just for her. I will never forget her encouragement and confidence.These memories, will exist within my heart so long as I am destined to live the life granted to me by God Lucille, whether she knew it or not. helped strengthen the chain of events which have linked me to public and civic life.
