Joseph L. Sanzaro. The mayor will bring the women up to date on the current From Robert G. Miele, Britten road, owner of Rolling Knolls Farm I think it is about time the people of Chatham Township hear the TRUE facts about some of the allegations being made. (1) Bailey Brower keeps referring to MIELE DUMP and not the Sanitary Landfill! It is a true fact that my operations prior to 1958 was an open dump.

The reason for this is simply that there were no laws or even guidelines for a Sanitary Landfill In 1958 the State of New Jersey came out with a Sanitary Landfill Law. From this date right up until now we have kept our operation rated as one of the finest Sanitary Landfills in the State of New Jersey. There are not just idle claims these are hard, cold facts. Perhaps the people in town do not realize it but we are continuously being inspected by not only the State Department of Health but also the County and the -local boards at least three times per week! (2) I must go on to say that up until now, since 1937 when we first started our operation, we have never had a complaint from the local, County or State boards of health. These are true facts and the township records will prove it.

(3) To Helen Fenske: when she talks about the wildlife properties, why does she fail to mention the fact that I was one of the first to sell about 300 acres of my land at such a ridiculous price just to keep the Jetport out of our back yards. She also keeps talking about the past six years given untiringly of his time with true dedication and a moral obligation to fulfill his duties as an elected official of this community. He is a man of unquestionable integrity and has no interest other than in the betterment of our township. It is one thing to listen to constructive suggestions or criticisms from the citizens, which the Committee welcomes, but no man should have to accept the degradation imposed upon Dr. Platt at this meeting.

Are we, the citizens of Chatham Township, going to allow this sort of defamation to our elected officials to continue? I think it is high time we gave them the support they deserve and show our appreciation for their unselfish efforts in governing this community for all of us. Let us give them this support and show how proud we are of them by attending the next Committee meeting on Thursday, December 5, 1968. From the following Chatham Township residents; Walter K. Dressier, Joan Dressier, Robert Jansen, Margaret Jansen, Maria J. Healv, Dudley L.

Healy, Natalie Lanzara, Charles Fields, Marlene M. Cialone, R. A. Cialone, Maijorie Ferratti, Lawrence D. Ferratti: We, the undersigned citizens of Chatham Township were in attendance at the Township Committee meeting held on Thursday, November 7, at Township Hall.

We were witness to a fact of so-called polluting the swamp with septic wastes, etc. etc. Why does disgraceful open verbal attack upon officials of our community i our duly elected she leave out the fact that it is her husband, Arthur Fenske, operating under the name of Garner Bros. Septic Wastes who is bringing these septic wastes from the residents of Chatham Township into my "'anitary Landfill. (4) This last statement I would like to clarify by saying up until now Chatham Township has not had sewers and all of the septic wastes from the township were deposited on my land by order of the Board of Health of Chatham Township! From Mrs.

Roger D. Knapp, 4 Femdale road: status of public safety measures and other topics of community wide interest The featured program for the evening will be Mrs. Randall Royce of Summit, who will demonstrate the making of a multitude of original decorative items for the holidays. As Tenth District International Affairs Chairman for the New Jersey State Federation of Clubs, Mrs. William Deans, a member and past president of the Township club, has requested all members to bring to her home any used or unused books of a simple, elementary school level for distribution through a federation-wide project called K.I.T., Keep in Touch.

This elective project for 1968-69 is designed to keep club members in touch with the students now teaching in Brazil, Argentina, Mexico and cipients. Their need for simple books from which to teach their pupils in South America how to better understand our language and to promote good will between our countries is desperate. I was present at the Chatham Township Committee meeting last Thursday evening and have never been so shocked as I was at the abusive and disrespectful remarks directed at Dr. Adrian Platt, a member of the Township Committee. Dr.

Platt has for the by Bailey Brower of way. We were shocked and ashamed that a member of our own community would attack the credibility and character of all our elected Committeemen with the exception of I. W. Spraitzer, as he was excluded from these remarks by Mr. Brower.

As citizens of this community we offer our humblest apologies to our elected officials for they did not deserve this public attack upon their cnarac- ter. We feel that these deserving men who had devoted long hours of hard work for our community should not be subjected to the repeated open public attacks of this man. The adverse publicity brought upon our Township via radio and newspaper articles has brought shame upon all citizens in this community and we urge each citizen to defend our Town and Committee from any such further incidents.

School Lands Badly Needed- So SaysSchool Board TOWNSHIP President Jack De Caprio told an audience of 40 at the November 11 meeting of the Township Board of Education that while school populations increase, school sites are decreasing. 100 additional pupils entered this year; the average increase per year is 50.

The Board will re-study all previously proposed and new expansion plans, including regionalization developments. Completion of preliminary plans for the Meyersville school is scheduled for March 15, 1969. In June or September, Mr. De Caprio said, there will be a public referendum on two separate questions: an elementary school and a land proposal. Robert Pitt, Chairman of the Long Range Planning Committee, said that the elementary school, due to open in 1971, was not compatible with regionalization.

It would bo a surplus, an added debt. It is only a small installment in a long-range program that is needed for quality education. In the recent land purchase referendum, Mr. Pitt said, a vote was a vote for the Meyersville elementary school. Mr.

Pitt traced the progress of a hypothetical third-grader, Jack Doe. By the time Jack reaches Lafayette, that enrollment will be 561, while its capacity, based on classes of 25, is 400. In 1976, when Jack is a junior, the 650-pupil high school will have an enrollment of 859. we do something about it, Jack Doe will not receive the program that my children Mr. Pitt said.

Of course ization could change the situation. Neither of the present high schools is adequate or expandable, because of the small sites they occupy, Mr. Pitt said. They would undoubtedly become middle schools, and a regional high school would be built. Mr.

De Caprio said that the Meyersville school plan should go ahead. find solutions by he said. are not interested at this time in a long-range program but are interested in a short-range program to get their kids in He said that possibly people know what they were voting on in the referendum. we do a good public relations job."

Roses and Falling Snow How long my love, how long since last we met? It seems to me like only yesterday.

And yet I know a thousand suns have set And summer's blooms have fallen in decay. How long before I fail to see your face In every smiling face that passes by? When will my mind no more recall your grace? When will my heart in beating cease to cry? Snow is falling; voices calling; Echoes from the past. Roses dead; hope is fled; Time is fading fast. My heart in pain; the mind insane With memories of long ago. What used to be, I will ever see In roses and falling snow.

How long my sweet since last I held you near? It seems it was a whispered breath away. My every sense still notes each detail clear And thrills again in dreams of yesterday. How long before I wake to greet each dawn To find your name is not a lingering sigh That in my heart kept faith, though you're now gone, Yet even now calls forth that lonely cry. Snow is falling; voices calling; Echoes from the past. Roses dead; hope is fled; Time is fading fast.

My heart in pain; the mind insane With memories of long ago. What used to be, I will ever see In roses and falling snow. Though heaven strips from me my every sense Denies to me the fruit of ear and eye My soul will feed and grow forever hence On dreams that live; On thoughts that cannot die. I know my love, I know I'll ever yearn To share with you this life I live each day. I pray each night that somehow you'll return So that this heart no longer needs to say.

Snow is falling; voices calling; Echoes from the past. Roses dead; hope is fled; Time is fading fast. My heart in pain; the mind insane With memories of long ago. What used to be, I will ever see In roses and falling snow. Paid.
