In a letter to The Times, she says: John I. Anderson, Editor The Transylvania Times Jlrevard, North Carolina Dear Mr. Anderson: Today when the Girl Scouts are celebrating our 50th Anniver sary, we feel that there are so many, many people who have contributed to the success of our program. It is difficult to express the depth of apprecia tion felt by individual girls and by groups for the special services received. On behalf of all these, T would like to thank the Tran sylvania Times and Radio Station WPNF staffs for the excellent publicity we have received. The lours, consultation, and guidance on public affairs and communi cations were especially benefi cial to the Troops. Jury Trials Postponed Due to the illness of attorneys, jury trials in the General County court this week were postponed. A few submissions were heard. Thomas J. Brown, charged with drunk driving had to pay $100.00 and costs. Clifford Fisher.was sentenced to four months in prison on a charge of drunk driving. Three persons were charged with speeding. James Fred Lind say had to pay $5.00 and costs; Richard Mark Hughey had to pay costs; and Lynwood Coleman Hall had to pay $15.00 and costs. William Bruce Norton was charged with larceny and he was placed under probation. In fact, it seems that each person in our community deserves a “thank you” for their interest and support; namely, parents, consultants, contributors to the United Fund, public service groups, businesses, outstanding citizens, and buyers of Girl Scout Cookies. Our dream of the future is that each girl in Transylvania county j who desires to become a Girl I Scout will have the opportunity i to do so. Mr. Anderson, you have done much to help us on toward this goal. Our membership is now 15 troops, 300 girls, and 60 adults. Quite a “glow for our golden anniversary”. Thank you! Sincerely, Mrs. Spalding McIntosh.

Lightweight printing papers, with the whiteness, opacity, strength and printability of many pa pers twice their weight, ar<fc providing the answer to this increased cost of doing busi ness, he explained. Another solution, and an in creasingly popular one, to the problem of how to hold the cost line, he noted, is the grow ing use of multi-copy business forms, frequently referred to as “snap outs.” These consist of multiple forms with earbec. paper already inserted between the forms by the forms man ufacturer.
