A reader column criticizes Venice Junior High and High Schools for litter and neglect seen during Christmas break. The piece blames students, teachers, and especially parents for failing to instill respect for taxpayer-provided facilities and warns of a future garbage-filled landscape.
The notice invites reader letters but limits them to 200 words and requires signatures, full address, and a phone number. It specifies submission to Letters to the Editor at P O Box 1028 Venice Florida 33595 and notes that poetry and copyrighted material are not accepted.
In a seasonal Inquiring Photographer piece the writer pleads for better manners and urges smokers to quit. He personifies a typewriter and its keyboard as volunteers helping a public health cause, insisting they assist even against tobacco interests to spread the message of quitting.
The author lists personal resolutions and refusals in a reflective piece set at a Christmas coffee bar. He plans to praise certain colleagues, push for a moved airport, promote a municipal golf course, monitor county actions, and continue Democratic ties while staying outspoken about local governance and national issues. He also thanks readers and his wife.
The writer decries the IRS for sending 1980 tax forms after the holidays and charging high taxes. They argue the middle class cannot afford burdensome forms or complex deductions and call for simpler taxation. The note is signed by Norah J Denison with a sensitive social critique.
