&■' Use boric acid powder.
‘ Get it at our pharmacy.
•> Put it everywhere you
have roaches in floor
'• moldings, cracks, corners,

; and around the plumbing.
Be sure to keep it away
from food and dishes. And
always store it in the orig

Rx Tip: Don’t use a

periods of time with
out seeing your doctor.

I letter To
IfheEditor
Dear Editor:
I want to express my appreciation to Ray Dorsett for the
article he wrote on conservation in The Yancey Journal January i
IS. Thank yon for calling these important matters to the
attention of all the citizens of Yancey Comity. We all need to be
reminded of ways we can live better Uves;-at home, with our
neighbors, and in caring about our external environment.
Also, I want to thank Sue Larson for her excellent articles
on two of the many artists in this community.
1 would like to see more articles like those mentioned'
appear in the Journal throughout the year.
Sincerely,
Leona Markman
Rt. 4, Box 146A, Burnsville
From The Editor’s Desk: ;|
The Burnsville Little Theatre has been in existence for a
year and a half, and in this time the Company has produced
“blithe Spirit” and “Early Frost” and Is currently producing
“The Fantasticks”. The first two productions have been
benefits for community needs, the proceeds having gone to
help the Blue Ridge Hospital System and the Yancey Library.
The Little Theatre group has asked nothing from the
community except their moral [not monetary] support and
appreciation for their efforts. The cast and production crew
spends many long hours on the plays, giving freely to make a
quality production possible. No one is paid for their time and
services.
Now the Burnsville Little Theatre is presenting a musical,
“The Fantasticks” on Saturday night, 8:15, in the Burnsville
Elementary School Gym. Admission is only $2 for adults and $1
for students. Much time has been spent in working on and
coordinating the music and the choreography. Bill Wilson,
Artist in Residence at Mayland Technical Institute has been
working free with local talented people in this production,
which is a highly acclaimed musical and definitely family
entertainment. It promises to be a memorable evening.
_ This is a chance for everyone to “give” a little of
themselves by attending the play and to “gain” a wonderful
experience by so doing. The Little Theatre needs community
support-support only possible with your presence.
