Because of the July 4 holiday next week, the deadline for all news and advertising will be moved ahead one day, to noon Sunday, July l. The SUN would appreciate your consideration of this deadline so that we too may enjoy Independence Day.

Summer in Alfred. Some folks were once heard saying it was boring, that there was nothing to do. But I find that it is quite the contrary, especially during the past few years.

For the sports nuts, Alfred has a great deal to offer during the summer. There is a swim camp, a basketball camp, Little League baseball. Babe Ruth baseball, Cinderella softball, Princess Softball, slo-pitch softball, amateur soccer, a tennis tour­nament and many other op­portunities such as camping, fishing, boating and swimming at Foster Lake. There is probably more that I have missed.

For those who enjoy music and drama, Alfred offers the University's Summer Theatre and Children's Theatre. One can also enjoy concerts weekly by the Alfred Village Band on the lawn downtown in the village or carillon concerts Tuesday evenings. The band concerts begin at 7 p.m. each Wednesday, while the carillon concerts start at 7:15 p.m. each

Tuesday. The Jubilee String Band has also been holding some square dances in the village.

And, summer readers will not find a better book store in the Southern Tier than the College Book Store in Alfred. There are tranquil spots in Alfred where one can enjoy the summer sun while digging into a good book.

For persons who want activities that are a little more "xciting, there are some annual celebrations in the area that can't be beaten.

For starters, there's the An-dover Fourth of July Celebration, which begins with a parade down Main Street of that village at 10 a.m The carnival on the school grounds will begin following the parade with pony rides, con­cessions and a chicken barbecue.

Area residents may want to return to Alfred for the Village Band's July 4th concert at 2:30 p.m. But don't miss the fireworks in Andover, which will begin when it's good and dark.

Then, on August 11, the Almond Lions are holding their annual Community Day, with a large number of activities being planned. Watch the SUN for further details of that celebration.

With the gas situation as it is, the summer activites of this area appear even more appealing. Why not spend a summer in Alfred?

LGTT€R TO TH€ EDITOR With the preparation of the

Strawberry Festival underway here. I wanted to pass along a story from my own childhood.

When I was growing up in Almond, there were no real backyards, just fields and vegetable gardens. One neighbor of ours, an elderly retired farmer named George Patton used to farm the back lots of four or five houses. He planted a variety of produce, enough to sell at his roadside stand and to fill his root cellar for winter usage; but his main crops were popcorn and strawberries. His s trawberry fields seemed endless to us and the edge of one came to within several feet of our property line.

The summer that I was four, a particularly abundant crop was produced. The hot sun reflected on bright red berries and on one plant near our line, I noticed a very large berry developing. It wasn't quite ripe when I first spotted it

and so each day I returned to check on its progress. To my delight, it grew larger and had more brilliant color each sunny day. After what seemed like a long time to me, probably a week or so, I decided it was perfect: huge, bright red and very iuicy P r*rimp

time to pick it since in another day it would begin to spoil or a bird would spot it. Even now I am able to visualize that berry. I carefully and casually checked out the field. The Pattons were working at the other end. I summoned up my nerve, picked the berry, and ran. That was my mistake, running. Before I could eat it, and I had planned to do so very slowly, savoring each bite, I heard the voice of Mrs. Patton ordering me to stop. I did, waited, and then received a long and intense lec­ture on stealing. Worse than that. 1 had to hand over the evidence. When my mother found out, ! was sent down the street to apologize

in person at the Pattons" door, m e walk down the sidewalk, two doors away, took at least an hour and then it took me twenty minutes to knock on their door. I never contemplated stealing anything again.

Now almost thirty years later. I am living in the house mat was Pattons'. The fields are now back yards with grass and plantings, but the sun feels just as hot and the strawberries are ripening in the local fields.

The Almond Historical Society celebrates each year the arrival of this marvelous fruit with their annual Strawberry Festival. On Thursday, June 28 at 5 p.m., townspeople will gather at the Hagadorn House to eat home­made shortcake and listen to the Jubilee String Band perform historical and traditional music. Other strawberry tales will un­doubtedly be told and shared here.

Sincerely, Betsy Myers

Christian Ed Group Meets at Lake Lodge T h i r t y - f o u r p e r s o n s

representing 10 churches of Allegany County attended the annual dinner and business meeting of the Fellowship for Christian Education held at the Alfred Tech Lake Lodge.

Officers were elected, the treasurer's report and budget approved and the by-laws were changed to decrease the number of Bible School Trustees from 12 to 6, in business.

Larry Gerdes, who asked the Lord's blessing before s buffet supper served by the staff of the 0ld, with about 85 percent coming central dining hall, also presided from broken homes and 90 percent in the Joint business meeting of the Allegany County Bible School Association and the Allegany County Fellowship for Christian Education.

Alice Sslmonson of WeUsvllle led the worship service following the dinner. A men's quartet consisting of Jim Rausch, Stephen S. Crandall, Robert Volk and Lee Ryan presented a ministry of music, singing: "It's All Right Now," "Sweeter ss the Years Go By," "All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name," and "Rise Up O Men of God."

Officers elected include Rev. Harmon Dickinson of Richburg, vice-president; Mary Clare of

Alfred Station, Theodore McClure of Wattsvtile, treasurer.

Allegany County Sheriff Reynard Meacham was in­troduced as "one of the few committed Christians who speaks out for his faith."

Meacham, the after dinner speaker, thanked the group for Its continuous interest in the Jail ministry.

Meacham said that the predoninant age of those in­carcerated is from 17 to 21 years

having alcohol or drug-related problems.

The sheriff explained his three major responsibilities, as being director of the jail, making arrests and giving summons for civil litigations. He also works alongside the guards in the routine operation of the jail.

Meacham said that area ministers are invited to conduct weekly services Sunday af­ternoons and there is a mid-week Bible study. He said that one of the functions of the jail program is to build up the morale of the prisoner. He said that the only true rehabilitation is spiritual rehabilitation.
