“Heinie” Snider says the ice
finally left Lake Lucille with
his help on May 22, and on that
morning Mrs. Snider started
her daily summer dip and re
ports the water was just right.
The Sniders celebrated their
48th wedding anniversary by
going to Anchorage for dinner
at the “Driftwood.” The food
was excellent despite the fact
that there was only candlelight
and he wasn’t sure what was
on the plate. However, the big
surprise came when he was told
the waitresses wore short, short
skirts, and he never noticed.
THOUGHTS
OF A
LAYMAN
I Will Lift Up My Eyes
Here in Alaska we are bless
ed with the most stupendous
panorama of mountains, lakes,
glaciers, forests and rivers.
Have you ever stopped to
count your blessings? We have
no potato bugs and no snakes.
In the far north you can even
get along without a refrigera
tor. But putting aside all friv
olity, we may, like the psalmist
of old, look into the heavens
and behold the myriad of stars
that declare the glory of God.
Winter nights are emblazoned
with the aurora borealis. We
even have rainbows in Novem
ber, at noon, and they are
straight north. All a testimony
to the power and majesty of
Almighty God.
The annual “Pioneers Picnic’
will be held at the Snider resi
dence and grounds on Lak<
Lucille June 23. Work is go
ing on now to prepare the
grounds for games and extn
entertainment. There will alsc
be a new outdoor fireplact
ready for toasting hot dogs anc
marshmallows.
Pioneers are reminded tc
bring their own plates, cups
and utensils and of course lots
of food. Attendance last yeai
was 500, and with a new Aux
iliary, more are expected to at
tend this year.
Mrs. Bronwen Jones arrived
home last weekend after visit,
ing in Washington and Cali
fornia since Christmas. Mrs
Jones held an open house
this afternoon to greet friends
of the community.

PLAN TRIP TO
NEW ZEALAND
The adventure of a trip to
New Zealand awaits Mr. and
Mrs. Clifford Salisbury, a
young couple who have made
their home in Palmer for the
past three years.
Salisbury, a teacher in the
Palmer grade schools since
1960, has accepted a position in
the South Island district of
New Zealand, where he will
teach on the high school level.
The young couple will leave
Palmer late this week for Seat
tle, where Salisbury will attend
the University of Washington
until Christmas time, working
toward his master’s degree.
The Salisburys will then
leave for New Zealand in time
for the opening of the school
term, which is in February in
the Southern Hemisphere coun
try. They plan a leisurely sea
voyage, rather than to travel
by plane.
They have tentative plans to
return to Palmer at the close
of their New Zealand trip and
after Salisbury completes
work on his master’s degree.
The local teacher said he first
saw Palmer in 1953, when he
was here as an ACS telephone
lineman.
