toy ride I dk By Libby Demp Forrest v N" j "Didn't I tell you, Mom. Didn't I tell you the old Coke would be back," said No. 2. "You said it," 1 remembered. "But I didn't believe it." "You just don't understand business, mom," said No. 2. "I had this all figured out from the beginning." "We could have made millions. Millions," I lamented, "if I had only known." "I TRIED to tell you, Mom," said No. 2. "Didn't I tell you Coke would be back?" "I never knew," I anquished. "I've become jaded. I accepted what I read. I didn't think the little guy could still win in this big, automated computerized world of today." "I told you. Mom, but you wouldn't listen." said No. 2. "You keep saying that," I said defensively. "That's what you say to me when you're right about something," said No. 2. "I guess I do," I said. "WELL." SAID NO. 2. "was I right or was I right?" "Do I say that to you when I'm right?" I said humbly. "You always say. "Son, there's a saying we have here in Cape May County. ..am I right or am I right?' " "I think I'll watch TV. I need to relax," I said. I turned on the tube just in time to catch a commercial about Coke. "Ican'tstand this." Isaid. "Everyone is out to get me." "Shhhh," said No. 2. "I want to watch this." WE WATCHED. "Classic Coke." said No.2 . "That's not bad. I figured they'd come up with a name something like that." "It must be wonderful to be brilliant." I said. "Shhhh." said No. 2. "I wish I could make big goofs like the Coca Cola Company did," I said. "Talk to me later. Mom," said No. 2. "I want to watch this." We watched. "Okay." said No. 2 when the commercial ended. "Now do you want to hear what I figure Pepsi will do to fight back?" "Whatever you say." J said. "I'm sure you're right about being right." Our Readers Write Gripers Guilty To The Editor: Reference, two recent letters about parking tickets in Cape May: These individuals received traffic tickets because they were illegally parked, as the meters were expired. It's not pleasant to receive a parking ticket at any time, but never did the people who wrote to you openly admit they were guilty of overparking at the meter, "the simple plain truth." There are individuals who cannot deal with life on life's terms, and using humility, promptly admit when they are wrong. Parking tickets in Philadelphia are $35. Also they should be grateful their cars were not towed away. H. MOUNT Wildwood A Big Success To The Editor: I would like to praise the officials of Middle Township for the job they did in organizing the 4th of July Celebration at the Goshen Sports Complex. There were many activities for both children and adults. This type of event brings the community together and it is good for our township. I feel the fireworks were as nice as any resort community and the concert of country and Western music was very enjoyable for everyone. Recreation Director Greg Arnold and Committeeman Chuck Leusner should be recognized for all the hard work in making this day a big success. Middle Township now has a Halloween parade. Christmas parade, and July 4th celebration which create community spirit and enthusiasm for young and old alike. I think this is great for our township. ROXANNE DUNKELBERGER Burleigh Her Mother's Ring To The Editor: I want to make a plea to the person who found the two rings I lost in the ladies public lavatory in Stone Harbor July 9th. The gold ring with the star sapphire belonged to my mother who died when I was five months old. It was the only possession of hers that I had. I'm sure this ring means a lot more to me than it could to anyone else. I wish you would be kind enough to return it to me. Call 390-3712. J.E. POWELL Marmora

The Young-at-Hearts were given a tour of the base, which included a movie, a question-and-answer session, lunch, and a tour of the cutter Alert Nelson said the trip, plus others sponsored by the club, is in keeping with its basic goals which he • described as a "friendly group of senior citizens, who do good for those in need and who get together to enjoy themselves." THE YOUNG-AT-HEARTS also visit residents of Lutheran Home in Ocean View and East Creek Manor in Eldora Nelson added that the group contributes to the Upper Township Rescue Squad and a scholarship fund started by and named after church member Somers Corson Although the group
