Once again the camp director,
Michael Vincent, and all the staff
members and counselors left Barger
Springs following Loaves and Fishes
Summer Camp 1999 (June 20-25)
feeling very good--VERY tired,
but VERY GOODtt! Each year we
think that this year's was The Best.'
Sixty.five campers and over thirty-
five junior and senior counselors and
visiting "teachers" came together at
Camp Summers for a week of FUN,
FRIENDS, FROLIC and FOOD. We
eat all the time....delicious meals
(thanks to Jim Cockran and his
staff) juices, fruits, ice cream, pizza
or sr.acks (thanks to McDonald's,
Kroger's, Rogers Market, Kirk's,
Family Dollar, Long John Silver's,
Fox's Pizza and Hellems). Ten boys
and their librarian, Brian Dubrule,
from St. Peter's High School in New
Jersey bring a different "accent" to
our mountains. Other counselors
came from Summers, Monroe,
Raleigh, Ohio, Greenbrier and
McDowell counties. Many "teachers/
artists" came for the full time or for
a specific class, activity or event.
Daily activities included: Sports and
Games, archery (thanks to Den's
Sports Shop-- safe swimming
(thanks to Abbie Lilly and Zellie
Rossi-Averill), Nature (thanks to
Glenn Runions, Jim Phillips and
Anna Lilly), Theatre, Arts and
Creative Crafts (thanks to Glenn
Singer, Marylou Rush, Tom
Stacklin, Scott Miller, Everett
Crawford, Humpty Dumpty Day
Care, Jane Duffield and Yvonne
Satow), Around the World to the
Phillipiaes ((}emma Leftwigh)
Belize (Anna and Able Lilly), Russia
(Irena Rodimseva) and Latin
America (Maria Madariaga and Jon
Averill) We are in the good hands of
folks with generous hearts:Dr. Cy
(Satow), Tom Stacklin, John Parfitt,
medical supplies from Big Four, art
supplies from Save-A-Lot and
Holton-Arms School in Bethesda,
MD, a visit from staff members of
REACHH, photo shoots with Jake
Bair, news coverage by Nerissa
Young and visits from community
celebrities. And what other camp in
1999 can claim a resident
"butterfly,'? Ours was Nikki Day.
None of this could happen
without our wonderful friends .... 84
donors including 9 anonymous
"angels," gave a $4,520:00 so that
Loaves and Fishes Summer Camp
1999 could become a reality.., now a
memory.

LETTER TO THE
EDITOR
Home Away:
54From Hemal:
Dear Editor:
The Ronald McDonald House
provides a "home away from home"
for families with children receiving
treatment at local hospitals in
Morgantown, WV. Each year, over
900 families use our facilities. We
give each family a warm,
comfortable place to reside and we
also offer many home-like comforts
to our guests, such as fully-equipped
kitchens, a laundry room and play
areas for children.
An easy way to become involved
with the Ronald McDonald House is
to participate in our pop tab
recycling program. Each month, we
raise approximately $600 from
recycling tabs. The money raised
from this program helps to offset
many of the costs that we incur in
the daily operations of the House.
The amount of money we receive
from recycling tabs would easily
double or even triple if everyone
reading this article were to start
collecting pop tabs for the Ronald
McDonald House
The Ronald McDonald House pop
tab recycling program is a simple
project for any age group, as well as
schools and organizations. We are
also happy to provide colorful pop
tab "banks" upon request, Please call
(304) 598 0050 for more information
on how you can help "pull for the
House.

IN-TRANSIT FEEDING.
Reprint from The Train
Dispatcher by permission.
Nourishment in route was one of
the problems needing an answer for
the early American railroads. Some
passengers would come on board
with a wicker hamper packed with
their own lunch.
In Pennsylvania the engineer
would stop the train at intervals to
let the passengers cross the pasture
to an old inn, one that probably was
well known as a stagecoach stop.
Someone thought of providing

dinner stops at the major junctions.
These were known as "refreshment
saloons." They were insurance
against starvation. The train would
stop, the door would open, and the
passengers would all rush out like
children out of school. They would
be served pies, cakes, pastries, hard-
boiled eggs, ham, custards and a
variety of goods. A bell would ring
to signal the train's departure.
As soon as the railroads began to
use telegraphy, the in-transit
feeding was speeded up. The
conductor would walk through the
train before a scheduled stop and
count the passengers and
telegraphed ahead to the next stop
to warn the cooks. As a rule the
trains stopped for only ten or twenty
minutes, hardly time to eat a meal.
Sometimes the service was
maddeningly slow and the food too
hot. The meal stops were planned to
fit the schedule of the train and not
the regular meal times of the
passengers.
An unsatisfactory alternative of
this kind of service was to buy from
the "news butcher" a young man who
also sold postcards, salted nuts, and
glass lanterns filled with colored
candles. The news butcher first
appeared on the New England
railroads around 1850. He started
by selling magazines, papers and
tobacco. They branched out in many
ways limited only by their own
imaginations.
Thomas Alva Edison was a news
butcher on the Grand Trunk
Railroad when he was twelve years
old. Robert Louis Stevenson wrote
about the peddler on the overland
route, and Horatio Alger made a
hero of a fictional news boy on the
Erie road.
It was just a matter of time before
someone would build a restaurant
car. In 1807 the Philadelphia,
Wilmington & Baltimore took a
chance on such an idea. They used
two cars divided to create a smoking
room and an eating bar with steam
table in each. They ran these for

Take Prescribed Medi-
cines as Indicated
Physicians and pharmacists
sometimes use the term noncom-
pliance to refer to any situation in
which people do not take medi-
cines as they have been prescribed.
For example, it is reported that
only about half of the 1.6 billion
prescriptions written in the US each
year are taken as they are intended
by prescribers. There are many rea-
sons why noncompliance occurs.
With older persons there may be
problems associated with not be-
ing able to read the prescription
label or hearing problems that may
lead to misunderstanding at the time
prescriptions are dispensed. Re-
searchers have noted a gender prob-
lem also - men tend to be less

CHANGING TABLE NEEDED
The Family Resource Center
(411-FRC) is in need of a baby
changing table for use in its Day
Care program. If you have one you
are no longer using, that you would
consider donating or selling, please
contact the FRC at 466-2223 and ask
for Linda or Holli.
George Pullman, started the first
ear where the food was actually
cooked on it, in the late 1860's. He
also found the business unprofitable
and with his usual shrewdness
turned the business back into the
hands of the railroad.
From their simple beginnings
they went on to become quite plush
and served finger bowls with lemon
scented warm water. The Sante Fe
had a well stocked library car. The
King's diner on the Panama Limited
had five luxury courses with wines
and liquors. The railroad car
provided food and comfort for
travelers for over one-hundred years
but never were known to make
money.
erly than are women. Some at-
tribute this to the fact that women
tend to take more medicines than
men and are more accustomed to
the drug-taking process.,
Improved compliance starts
with a better understanding of the
medicines that one takes for each
health problem. If you do not un-
derstand why a particular drug is
prescribed, ask questions. If you
live alone and have trouble hearing
or reading, ask a neighbor or friend
to help you. Also, commercial re-
minder devices are available to help
you remember to take medices at
the intended times.
