Ely Echo EI, Mn 0ct 97:, FIlIST BIIVI'IIDAY F()B TIlE ELY E('ilO Our child is one-year old now, I've watched it open its eyes, stretch its arms and awaken to tile newness surrounding it. Our chikt knows not one mother or father.]or our child is adopted, And ilseare has been lovingly, altended to by a group of people known as the "Ely Echo Staff". Each day they dress their child in color and print ; Ior once a week, the Public will see her. Sometimes they will feel happiness, sometimes anger, other times fear. But regardless of what they see in her. one thing remains for all to see: Truth, E×pression, Opinion and the right for all to be seen and heard. I wish to lake this oppartunity to express my total and sincere appreciation to every mernber of my Staff, whose unfaltering faith in out Newspaper has guided inlelligently and faithfully the growth of the Ely Echo. I do not consider my people as employees, but as Associates and trusted friends, To their abililies and loyalty, I hereby render my hearttelt thanks and appreciation.

It is out' job to act as your voice, Drop in and see us anyhme, \ l)ear Mr. Aakhus,, In October 1971 1 fnoved to Ely when my husband. Ron, took a job with the EPA as supervisor ot the terliary treatmenl plant. AI first 1 knew rio one, not even wives ol other EPA employees. I thought Ely was a ver) unfriendly town. Then 1 saw one of tile signs put up by the Ely Newcomers (,lub and 1 deeided Io go lo one of their meetings just to see what they were like. It turned out to be a good decision and afler thai I looked forward to the meelings. Through Newcomers I made nlany friends, some of whom 1'tl never forgel. Also I ew,ntually made fl'iends oulside tile club. If any new wonlen in Ely read this--don't be hesitant aboul if-go to Newcomers. It is both helpful and rewarding.

Mr. Editor: In regard 1867 Assoeiate Member Member, INPA to the United Way article I wonder it peoph, understand that the $2500 does not eomph,tely finance every (;M Seoul Troop in Ely When we send our gMs oul selling calendars, soap, candy or we have a bake sale, people ask, "Why should I buy this when l've ah'eady given to the Uniled Way'!" The I!nited Way does not contribute to our individual troop lunds. For any outings, lrips, parlies or projects (,tit' gMs do as a troop they IIInst earn the money themselves. This is the t;M S('ou! policy for R'at'hin,12 thrill and budgeting, I'm sure the Norlhern l,akes {;M Scout Council will inlorm anyone who asks where the money timy receive goes.
