Christian Mothers Society
Four New Members Join
S/TATE CAPITAL
By Benlta Easier
On Friday, July 26, the feast
day of St. Ann, mother of the
Blessed Virgin, four new mem-
bers were received into the
Christian Mothers Society at St.
Mary's Church in Windthorst.
They are Mrs. Gerald (Sherry)
Berend, Mrs. J. P. (Monica)
Schreiber, Jr., Mrs. Danny Joe
(Debbie) Schroeder and Mrs.
Daryl (Ann) Wolf.
The enrollment of new mem-
bers followed a High Mass

of the Mothers Society.
A continental breakfast fol-
lowed with Social Chairmen,
Mrs. Robert (Lorine) Wolf and
Mrs. Henry (Mildred) Pennartz

Following introduction of the
new members, and the mem-
bership committee composed of
Mrs. Henry (Julia) wolf, Mrs.
George (Anna Mae) Veitenhei-
mer, Mrs. Joey (Gail) Schroe-
der, and Mrs. John (Kirby)
Schroeber, the president, Mrs.
James (Margie) Berend ad-
dressed the group, and used as
her topic, “What is the Chris-
tian Mothers Society?” and
"Why Am I a Member?” She
pointed out the many charitable
works of the organization, the
many spiritual benefits, as well
as the projects and programs

Burney Fish, 75, former Ar-
cher City resident, now of Bell-
evue. was surprised Wednes-
day evening, July 24, with a
birthday party.
The party was hosted by Mr.
and Mrs. Jodie Lippencott.
Attending the party were the
honoree’s sister, Mr. and Mrs.
Jiggs Brewer of Archer City;
the Brewer’s daughter, Mr. and
Mrs. M. W. Gibson and daugh-
ter, Jennifer of Arlington; Mr.
and Mrs. Glenn Shoemaker,
Evelyn Lovelady, Ralph Hogue,
Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Dean, Mr.
and Mrs. Ted Poindexter, W.

tional birthday cake.
PERSONAL
A note from Ann F. Elbert of
Seneca, Mo., accompanying her
subscription renewal, read in
part. . .“My sister, Mary C.
Elbert and I, along with another
sister and three brothers enjoy
the paper, especially the
'Echoes from Windthorst.’ The
reporter, Mrs. Don Essler, is
our cousin. We have a lot of
cousins living in the county. All

bers.”
they undertake. She stated it is
her aim that each member who
attends a meeting leave having
benefited spiritually, intellec-
tually and socially.
Following the address, six
60-year members of the organi-
zation were honored. These
ladies were recognized at the
Catholic State League Conven-
tion held in San Antonio
recently, and a beautiful certif-
icate was prepared for each.
Since none of the honorees
were able to attend the conven-
tion, at which time the Texas
branch of the National Catholic
Women’s Union was observing
its 60th Anniversary, the certif-
icates were presented at the
Honors Program. Having been
members 60 years plus are
Mmes. Rosa Berend, Magda-
line Lindeman, Rose Schroeder,
Katie Meurer, Anna Schreiber
and Sophia Schneider. Congrat-
ulations to these fine ladies!
*****
We people of Windthorst
want to invite each and
everyone of you area residents
and friends to visit us this
Sunday, Aug. 4, and join in the
fun and festivities we have
planned to celebrate the 82nd
birthday of the founding of our
town. AH kinds of booths and
games, concessions, a country
store, a horseshoe tournament,
church tours, and a delicious,
home-cooked meal, a country
and western dance, plus a
chance to win many prizes will
all be offered to those attend-
ing. We hope to see you there!

Russell Veitenheimer, 9-year-
old son of Mrs. Mary Veiten-

his grandmother. Mrs. Nellie

recently.
The county-wide winning
team in the Pee-Wee Division

Tommy and Gary Schlumpf,
Lonnie Berend, Donnie Schrei-

where one of the Noyes’
worked; and went to the resort
town of Fairmont, Minn.,
where there are five lakes and
had a boat ride and picnic
there.
They were entertained one
evening at the Blue Moon Ball-
room where the couples met
many of the hostesses' relatives
and friends.
They related that the houses
were iarge, two-story homes
with basements, and groves of
trees surrounding the houses
for wind and snow breaks
during their long, cold winters.
They have fields and fields of
com, alfafa, soybeans and sun-
flowers, and two or three silos
on each farm. Their cattle, both
dairy and beef, and hogs are
confined in barns as they have
no pasture land, therefore, they
have no fences. These couples
were amazed at the dairying
there; all cows are turned into a
large barn at one time, which is
quite different from the dairy-
ing around here.
On their return trip home two
couples, the Charlie Louwagies’
and Germaen Blommes’ ac-
companied the Texas couples to
the dog races in Sioux City,
Iowa. From there they bid fare-
well and continued on to
Omaha, Neb., where they
toured Boystown and in
Oklahoma, the Cowboy Hall of
Fame.
The travelers reported it was
a very enjoyable and interesting
trip, especially to see how other
people live and work; they said
that living there would be great
except for the winters when
they have huge snow banks and
20 or 30 degrees below 0.
Many pictures were taken to
show their families back home
and a heritage box was pre-
sented to each Texas couple,
compliments of their Minnesota
friends.

Mr. and Mrs. Ernest
Schreiber recently spent 12
days in California visiting their
children, Marian and her
husband, John D’Entremont in
Oxnard and Pat and Paulette
Schreiber in Burbank. When at
the D'Entremonts, they drove
to see the Pacific Ocean, then
along the coast north to a
Danish town called Solvang.
There they took a tour of the
town in a horse-drawn carriage
with a maximum speed of five
miles per hour. They viewed
the orange groves in the Ojai
Valley and drove in the moun-
tains; they ate at an exclusive
restaurant called the Lobster
Trap which was built on the
ocean where they could view
the boats and yachts. They also
attended the horse races at
Hollywood Park.
While visiting with Pat and
Paulette in Burbank, they
helped them move into a new
home. They went to the Dodger
Stadium to see a game between
the Dodgers and Montreal that
Montreal won, 8-7. The attend-
ance for that night was 42,444
but there was room for more
people. They toured the Baskin
Robbins ice cream plant where
Pat is the assistant production
manager and met his boss and
some of his associates. They
related that they were really
impressed with some of the
beautiful homes in the Los
Angeles area, especially those
built in the mountains as well
as in the valleys. They returned
via Dallas by plane and were
met at the airport by some of
their other children, Ralph and
Bernadette Rozier, Eugene and
Mabel Anderle and Ernie Sch-
reiber. They reported that it
was a wonderful trip and their
first plane ride.

of the anticipated general
revenue surplus will be used
on compensation and be-
nefits of 116,000 state work-

One budget executive con-
ceded the action '"placed a lit-
tle strain” on Gov. Dolph
Briscoe’s pledge of no new
taxes next year, although the
comptroller’s estimate of
a $315 million surplus is
viewed as conservative.
Further, existing revenues
are expected to generate
much more money next fiscal
period than they do today.
Many budget requests are
running ahead of present ap-
propriations by staggering
amounts.
Examples are the Depart-
ment of Mental Health and
Mental Retardation, the De-
partment of Public Welfare,
the Department of Correc-
tions, the Health Depart-
ment and Texas Youth
Council.

they still want a special

FOOD CRUNCH NEXT — A
"food crunch” could make the
energy crisis seem mild by

Texas Agriculture Commis-

A sudden world demand
for better quality food is driv-

White said, and causing
Americans to compete with
the world markets for their
own products.
U.S. producers can keep up
with the demand if they have
time to gear up, White
stated. He predicted the Un-

Conference in Rome next
November can "make or

warned against commitment
