A change in time, a change in town, ...is a result of sixty years of work on the World's Finest Health Spa” -- The Hall of Waters. The mineral water baths brought people from all over the Midwest to bathe their aches away. But today, with modern medicine and the inventions of the whirlpool bath and shower massage, the baths have decreased in use. This year also marked One Hundred Years” for the ci- ty of Excelsior Springs, when we celebrated the past. Another event in the city was the selling of the city owned and operated Pepsi plant. And time will continue to change our town in new and unexpected directions. LACLLblUn bPKIWLrb ItM - IMO MINERAL WATER SUIPHO-SALINE ’ CONTENTS ONE GALLON ■ by.'

Democrats vs. Republicans in convention at West The pledge of allegiance was the start of the mini con- vention; the concert choir followed. National Chairman Lito Rooney began the convention by introducing the first guest. Mayor John Tyler. Mr. Tyler gave a very in- spiring speech dealing with the Democratic and Republi- can political parties. He also commented that if people would take a better interest in politics, they would know more about our government and who to vote for. Other platform guests included Assistant Superinten- dent, Dr. Richard Howard, Mr. Don Hoagland, Chamber of Commerce President, and Mr. Paul Beecher, City Man- ager. They talked about the percentage of voters in the U.S., and Mr. Hyder talked about former conventions and encouraged everyone to vote. The platforms discussed in the debates included federal funds for abortions, shutting down nuclear power plants, capital punishment, equal rights, desegregation by bus- sing, and using only a four cylinder car and limiting using cars to only six days out of a week and lower high school dropout age. In the end Gov. Ronald Reagan took the lead over Carter with 91-54 votes. 14-mini-convention, by Kelly Lake
