Time and, ofcourse money. We haven't got much of either, but we try to do the best we can with what we have. So far, this club isn't pro gressing because we don't have much to progress on.We need outside help. In my opinion our club is something that not only the members can benefit from, but people of all ages. Be - cause we are the people of the future. And for this rea son we have to build a world for our children and wish for our children's world to be better than the one we lived in. Then maybe they'll try to do the same for their child ren and maybe this world will progress instead of perish. This is our goal and we do need help. So if you care about the future, our future, please give. So we can all make this world a better place in which to live. Deborah Griffith "To the Parents of Yancey County" I think you are very lucky because instead of the kids be ing on drugs and smoking pot they are out trying to find jobs and other things to do. So I think that the least the parents of Yancey County can do is to set up some kind of a Youth Center for the youth of Yancey County. That is all we ask so why can't it be given to us? Ken Shade ★ Dear Editor: I just arrived back in Bur bank, California after a three weeks visit with friends and relatives in and around Mica ville and Burnsville and while there I met and talked with C. D. Wilson and asked him how his apple orchard was progress ing. I was told that California, was filling the mountains up with nice big beautiful apples that he nor no one else could compete with and that it was putting him out of business — what a shame to let that hap pen, for no where in this old USA do apples have the fla vor like they do when grown in Yancey County. Although I left there around 38 years ago, HI never forget Yancey apples I hope California apples, grapes, walnuts, etc. are boycotted from N, C. soon, and here's a springboard to start from. Just after leaving Asheville on the way back I stopped at a little roadside stand and bought a bag of nice early harvest apples to bring home with me and at the Ca lif. border they were taken from vs and we were told that all North Carolina apples were barred from the state. (But it's Cattail News The Cattail Creek Home owners will hold their annual Labor Day Covered Dish Din ner at the community house on Monday, September 6th at 5:30 —do join us. The Gronquist Cabin has been alive with activity lately. The Harold Gronquists have returned to Ft. Lauderdale af ter a 4 weeks visit- -while here, the Charles Lee family of Greensboro, N.C. visited for a weekend. sjof; This weekend the Jerry Rays with their children, Kris tin and Lisa, arrived from Greensboro to spend 2 weeks with Mrs. Rays mother, Mrs. Gronquist Sr. The Robert La port es are back in the Willets cabin—it always is nice to see familiar faces. ** Mr. and Mrs. Robert Kle mans and son Bill of Delray Beach, stopped off to spend a few days with Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Priesmeyer of Cattail Creek Mountain Farm. They were en route home after a summer of trout fishing in Montana. all right to fill N.C. full of California apples and put good people out of business).... I wish we could give California some of its own treatment. Very truly yours, Bill Duncan ★ "To the Parents of Yancey County" A few months ago some of the youth of Yancey County got together and organized a youth group. There are about fifteen or sixteen members and believe me, the youth in this organization is very serious. Our meeting place was in the bottom of the church in Lincoln Park but we knew soon er or later we would have to get out. Now we have our meetings at a house of one of the members of the group. I know some parents are the financers of the Oak Crest Building. Maybe they do nit want anything to do with it. The building is not in use and has not been used since five years or maybe more. We want this building to have our meetings in. Both Black and White youth will be working in it and are very serious towards this youth center. Many parents may think if we get the building (by the Grace of God) we would use it only a week or two and let it go. But it's not going to be this way. We are going to vrork hard on this project. The reason for this is to join both Blacks and Whites together to know each other better. At least it would keep the Youth in this county busy and off the streets? D. L. G. At Dogwood Cottage, Mr. and Mb. Huey Warner have arrived with Alecia and Jason to spend two weeks with Mrs. Warner's mother, Mrs. Neva Renaldo. sjof: The Bruce Mozarts gave a dinner party Saturday Eve be fore flying home to Ocala on Sunday. Among the dinner guests were Mr. and Mrs. Don Do lie, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Davenport, Laura Domback, and Neva Renaldo. We wish to thank the El mer Days for sharing their summer trip to the coast with us at the community house thru the medium of slides. It was really a very interesting evening. We wish to welcome back the Harm arks of "Troll Top" who have just returned from a six weeks trip to Copenha - gen, Denmark. We are look ing forward to hearing more about your trip. With so many folks leav ing we turn our attention to the trees —some are beginning to turn color. Looks like an early All—and wq like the birds, will be wending our way South soon.
