«• WUQLASS COUNTY HISTORIAN ARCADE, K. Y, ADV Two weeks ago on the front page of the Holland Review w e I made the announcement that the Holland Review was no t re- j appointed the official paper for the -Town of Holland. This came as \a surprise, to both this office and to our very capable corres pondent i n that area, Mrs . Elaine Jackson. This motion was denied by a 3-fl vote of the Town Board. To say we were disappointed is putting it mildly. However, we are deepfully grateful to Messers. Joyce, Moore, Herrman, Roll and Bucknam following a special meeting of the Board held last Monday night. This meeting wa s held to rescind the appointment made a t 'the previous meeting and to appoint the Review as the official paper. We are also grate ful to all the fine Holland resi dents wh o so graciously came to our side during this time an d to Walter Schweizer for his fine letter addressed to this office. We are humble in accepting this appointment and are aware that we must give the Town a paper of which it can be proud. \We are working on several different angles which will benefit all wh o are interested in the paper. Once again w e must ask for the coop eration of all the residents, especi ally officers of the various service organizations and _ clubs. Th e editorial staff of this paper as well as our local correspondent 'are at your disposal and we ask you t o feel free to call upon us at all times. Du e to the type of printing which we do w e must have pictures one week inyidvance of publication, which is tfijgreason why many pictures are iw used. Club news, church notices, etc., can be included in the Review each week if some notice is re ceived by this office. Let's make the Review your home town news paper because you had a part in it. Once again w e offer ou r thanks to the Town Board. (Not once was the integrity of these me n questioned. Certainly the voters ot the Town used fine judgment In picking their officials an d they are proving themselves worthy of the trust placed in them. Quite some time ago, following the voting on the last school site proposition, we invited the readers of these papers to write in an d express their views on this prob lem that confronts all of us i n the Arcade Central School District So far no one ha d taken the time to sit .down and put his views in writing until this week when we received a letter written by a native of this area expressing hi s views an d thoughts concerning the financing and locating of a new school. May we direct your attention to page 7 in the \Editor's. Mail Box,'..', column i n which this letter appears? We are most grateful to David Welles for his efforts and will welcome further comment on this most important problem. Also in today's mail we received the annual questionnaire from Hon. Harold C. Ostertag inviting us to comment on the Important questions which will come before the Congress very soon. This questionnaire is being sent to every fourth voter listed on the latest voting enrollment lists in the 39th Congressional District. This is our chance to express our views on 12 very important issues which will affect each and every one of us in one wa y or another. Another question at the bottom of the page asks each person to name his choice for the next President of the United States. Answers will be tabulated and the results will be announced later. We sincerely ask each resident who receives this questionnaire to take a few minutes an d give his answers to these questions. This will not only help to let the Congressman know how his con stituents feel regarding many im portant 'bills, but will also give us an opportunity to help in the moulding of new laws. These public officials are sent to Wash ington to represent u s an d we must give them our cooperation when they as k for it. W e live in a free country, so let's not forget to do ou r part In seeing that the government is working for all of us. We also Would like to call your attention to page 3 of this issue which also is another first for us. We are going to print (as space permits) a panoramic view of the happenings in this area in 1959. Each month's happenings will be grouped into one page with the date that the article wa s pub lished for th e benefit of ou r read ers. We hope that this meets with your approval and your comments will toe appreciated. We will attempt to make this a yearly thing, space permitting. Arcade Seaman Serving Aboard USS Bridget James A.

ONE OF THE FIVE TRl-COUNTY WEEKLY PUBLICATIONS COVI NSH1PS IN WYOMING, CATTARAUGUS AND ERIE COUNTIES Volume LXIX One Section-Twelve Pages Thursday, January 21, 1960 10c Copy; 15c by Mail; $4 per Year Number 1 Sixth Grade Ohio Student Writes Aronson Machine Company on Space Below is the exact copy of a letter written to Chuck Aronson at the Aronoson Machine Com pany here in Arcade by a Miss Penny Siebert of Parma, Ohio, Penny is a sixth grade student in school and ha d heard of the Aron- son's reputation 'way down there Her queries on space Were direct ed to Mr. Aronoson in an effort to answer the 1 many complex problems facing her. Below this letter is the answer she will re ceive from Mr. Aronson. \Dear Sirs: I am in the sixth grade and wondering if you could send me something about space. My class mate and I ar e studying about space and anything you can send will b e accepted. I would like to know what connection you have with space? Could you tell me any secret project? Can you dir ect me to another source of in formation? Do you have any famous scientist with you? I~do want to thank you for your help. Yours truly, Penny Siebert\ Dear Miss Siebert: We at Aronson tire flattered b y your writing to us and happy to have this opportunity to write to you. Though the monkey tliat was sent into space was the focus of most of the attention there are thousands an d thousands of lesser lights contributing their very be.it to the successes and suffering reil sadness an d anguish at the fail ures. Aronson men contribute only a very small service to Am erican Space Studies but are n o less proud of that. Space is so vast and we are so small, Miss Penny, that we ma y a t times feel that our contribution is meaningless. Bu t may I point out that every failure of every attempt is caused by something even smaller than man , in fact, as small as a small mistake man made. I think this should tell us that no matter what we may contribute to life' it must be good and right or w e may d o great harm to many. We do not have any famous scientists here at Aronson, Penny. But w e do have men with families and each of those men is the mcst Important person on earth to theii families. Even more wonderful is the fact that each Aronson Man does such a fine job that hip small though important contribution is good and right an d his family an d his' employer\ can arid . are very proud of him . It ma y be of interest that the very first American satellite was put into orbit by a rocket missile that was built to some extent o n Aronson TracTred Turning Rolls and with Aronson Gear Driven Positioners. I a m sending an ad vertising tear-sheet showing on e of the applications of our Trac Tred. I am i n a poor position to kno-v of other sources of information bu t can recommend the best to you— your teacher. There are many books In your local library doalina with Space an d things referring ' o Space. I think it might be wise for all of us to first make sure we have a sound understanding of things this side of Space. In spite rf what ycu may hear and road the world and its people.; havi done mighty well our first several thousand years and God is surely- very proud of u s for that. Man's past accomplishments and th e hope for Man's future are both attributable to people like you Penny. People who wanted to know about things. My sincerest best wishes to you and yours.

The photo shows th e tank following Joading just before it left Arcade lfcst Fri- Blue Kill Range Riders Elect Pat Andrews President in diameter and 26 feet long took three weeks to fabricate and the finished product weighed nearly 8,000 lbs. when completed. This is on e of the largest fabrications —J'/tuto by tfurhain ever produced in th e factory which is located just off Park St. It will be hauled across the coun try by truck, with arrival expect ed within 10 days of departure. An urgent appeal is being made to ail healthy individuals to share blood with these less fortunate when the Red Cross Bloodmobile is in Arcade, Tuesday, January 26.- It will be set up at Motorola, hours 1 p. m to 7 p. m. This is a public service, dedicated to serv ing you an d your neighbors. Like every public service, it's as ef fective as ycur participation an d support make it. | A recent report shows that a I total of 56 pints pf blood were fur nished by the Red Cross at the Wyoming County Community Hospital last month. 16 pints of which were for people fr. m the Arcade vicinity Red Cross fur nishes all of the blood needs for people of this area whether hos pitalized at the Wyoming County Community Hospital cr elsewhere At Warsaw the matter of getting the blocd frcm the Red Cross Blood Center in Rochester is handled by the hospital Resident? hospitalized outside of the county are urged to advise hospital au thorities that they arc entitled to receive blood from the Red Cross by virtue of the locality's partici pation in the Rochester Regional Red Cross Blood Program, which provides unlimited quantities ol blood fcr residents of this area Individuals having any questions ' o r problem about the matter are urged to call the office of the Wyoming County Chapter here in Arcade, telephone Arcade 327 You may have heard someone say that they \paid for blood,' yet you gave yours free No charge is ever made for blood when it is collected by the Red Cross. Th e blood itself is free. However, be fore blood can be administered to a patient, the patient's blood must be tested and mixed with that of the donor's of th e proper group (crossmatched) to make sure that it will not cause a reaction. Th e hospital usually makes a small charge fcr the laboratory service and administration, bu t th e blood itself is free when furnished by Red Cross. To illustrate th e point, when Red Cross furnishes the blood, the patient's bill would bo anywhere from S3 t o $10 per pint for laboratory fees an d adminis tration of the blood, the pin' if blood being free. When bloc d is purchased from a commercial lab oratory or blood bank, th e sarr.\ bill wculd be from S3 to S10 :„v- laboratory and administrative ser vices and a n additional S25 t\ r the blood itself, or a total c I from S28 to S35 under th e commercial program as compared to the S3 t o $10 per pint charge when the blood is furnished free by the R< d Cross. While the majority of pec pic ar i requested to make appointments to donate blood in order to avoid long waits, donors will be accept ed without appointments and tak en care of as quickly as possible Go to Motorola Tuesday afternoon and help keep the Life Lino of Blood available for all.
