Everybody needs somebody s we go on from day to day each day we need some- thing or someone in our community. It' may be the local drug store, a gasoline station or a next door neigh- bor, but we have to know they are there. Along with the community there is advertis- ing of all sorts, such as professional services, a big Christmas sale or simple change of address. I need help from someone in my community all the time. I run out of gas so much Mobil doesn't even make me put a deposit on the can anymore. Everything ls so convlent In this town. There are plenty of drug stores and movie theaters but most of all peo- ple to help out. 1 I like living here. This town is my home. A home!223
