LOST AND FOUND DEPARTMENT — There’s no place like
a newspaper office to lose things . . . pictures, cameras,
pens, news stories, ads, you name it.
Two weeks ago, I lost a new column written by our town’s
Larry Presley for the Sun. Tuesday night it showed up in-
ches from the spot Larry had handed it to me. It’ll appear
in the paper today. Unless the printer loses it.
BURGLARS BEWARE - Don Williams, the town genius, has done
it again. Burned by burglars who lifted his precious television
set a few weeks back, Don vowed it would not happen again.
No siree, he’d scare the teeth out of anymore burglars
that dare come his way.
So Don invented a burglar alarm with weird noises and
everything.
Only problem, the weird noises are actually quite soft and
pleasing to t ear. The thing buzzes softly anytime the door
is opened by an intruder.
And frankly, if the sounds are not loud enough to be heard
by anyone except the burglars doing theirwork. Kiri'da makes
stealing groceries and television sets a pleasure, it seems.

FOR THE THIRD TIME in almost 60 years, Whitewright is
getting set to select a new man for the Mayor’s job.
Mayor Russell Summers told Rotarians Friday that he will
not seek re - election to the post he has held for the past 20
years.
I’ve never met a man who didn’t like Russell Summers.
And Russell can win any election he chooses in Whitewright.
During the past 20 years, Russell has made so many devoted
friends that he could be elected Mayor even if he lived in a
wheelchair and couldn’t make it to town to serve his term.
.But at age 72, Russell has decided to take a voluntary re-
tirement and let someone else do the job. Still, Russell isn’t
“waking out” on the town he loves and the town that loves him.
He’s promised to help the new Mayor, whoever he may be,
make a smooth transition into the job.
And the job is a big one because our town is entering a
critical period. Many small cities across Texas are withering
on the vine due to pessimism and inaction . . . while other
towns across Texas are booming with optimism, excitement,
action and progress.
So Whitewrighters will soon be making a big decision.
We need to select a man who can not only handle the numerous
day - to - day business problems of the biggest business in
town (with over 1,600 stockholders), but we also need to elect
a man who can look ahead into the complex possibilities and
pitfalls of the future.
Russell Summers is the lucky one. While the new Mayor
wrestles with the seemingly insurmountable problems that stack >
onlhis deskl Russell chn look back and remember some ot tne
M|£fr#pos.sjble’l’ he solved the ppst 20 years. "P
But’Russelnsfcnot count the hundreds of friends he’s made
since he was sworn into office.

This is the victory that
overcomes the world, our
faith.—(John 5:4).
Whenever we face some-
thing of value to be learned,
some good to be gained, we
should depend on God for our (1837 - 1903) C x____?
supply. Let His rich ideas and Arizona at age 13, (1851) by
productivity work through us.
If there is a healing need, learn
to rest and relax in the life of
God, for we can find perfect
health through him. By dwell-
ing on the good, that good is for rest of life. Ransomed

Well, hunting season is
about over and the fishermen
of the area are getting the
bug in a big way. The warm
spell this week is not helping
the fever any. However, from
all reports we may be a li-
ttle premature.
The fishing has been off
considerably the past few wee-
ks. Only the old pros seem
to make the catches this time
of year.
The outlook for the year
makes temperatures rise to
heights with all the new water
in northern Texas and South-
ern Oklahoma. The all new
Mayse Reservoi^ north
its prime this year from all
reports. For the crappie or
white bass fishermen, Cedar
Creek Lake south of Kaufman
will come into its own this
year also. For the people
who want to make a weekend
trip of about 250 miles Toledo
Bend Reservoir is reported
to be the hottest bass hole
in the state.
The big lake with 186,500
surface acres, of which 80,000
is in Texas, shared by four
east Texas counties, Newton,
Panola, Sabine and Shelby is
a bass haven. Lake Sam
Rayburn which is Toledo’s sis-
ter lake and only some 20
miles apart is also a great
bass lake; however, at this
time fishing is slow on Ray-
burn due to the recent drown-
ing last week of two fishermen
who were fishing a bass tour-
nament. Their bodies have not
been found yet and the lake is
stirred up from draging oper-
ations.
I talked to a game warden
in Lufkin Tuesday and he see-
med to think due to the rising
temperatures of the water, the
bodies would be found soon.
