he Amherst News-Times VOL. XXVIII, NO. 30. AMHERST, OHIO, THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1946 THE SANDSTONE CENTER OF THE WORLD Letters From Our Readers Thoughts expressed In this column are those of the writer and not necessarily those of the editor. Letters for this column are invited at all times. July 15, 1946 Mr. Roy Harr and Chamber of Commerce Associates Amherst, Ohio Dear Sir: Hope my letter is not too late im. regards to the question before our town: "Do we want more factories or keep it a residential town?" My opinion is to keep it a residential town, but one or two small factories would not come amiss, if they would be lo cated east of the U.S. Automatic Corp. or on Leavitt Road some where near the N.Y.C. tracks. Many thanks are due Mr. Wal ter Nord for what he has done for our town in making the U.S Automatic what it is today and don't kid yourselves that he did not have trying times. Now after the factory issue is settled, let's get down to the re idential part. Why can't Amherst have more homes? Just visit our neighboring cities; take a ride out Cleveland street in Ely ria, turn left on any of the side streets and see the homes being built, or look over Cambridge street in the same town- After that, go to Lorain, out East Erie ave. to Nebraska street, turn right into the Day Allotment, drive along Garfield Blvd. and the other new streets and let's hear what you think of the homes being built there. Are we, in Amherst, afraid to venture out or are we waiting for the other fellow to do it? We have almost a hundred new families that have bought homes neve a.nl -U surrounding territory in the last 8 to 10 years and every one is a fine, cultured and home loving family. Amherst need not be ashamed of these newcomers, but 6hould welcome them- Have we dome this? Am afraid not. But our humble and tired merchants have met them and done the best they could for them in these trying times. Now let's all thank our merchants for their services and say a cheery good morning to them. Some of our merchants have bean in business a good many years and then we have some newcomers end everyone has done a good job through the war years and let's hope that soon you can get all the merchandise you need without a lot of bickering. While I am at it, another thought comes to my mind- Why cm't Amherst have a new High School building and use the present building for grade school only? Now there is something for us to work on. And also, don't forget the new addition to our hospital which is so badly needed. Let's sum up the reasons why many folks are located here. Amherst is a clean town, lovely shade trees along our paved streets, fine churches, friendly pastors, good schools, and good teachers, library, fine stores, hospital facilities and good doctors, bus service and all necessary modern conveniences, yet is far enough away from city factories, grime and smoke- This may seem like a large order, but don't let it get you down; just keep in mind that, "where there is a will, there's a way." In closing, I will say, throw away thaT chip you have carried on your shoulder and put that 6houlder to the wheel and make Amherst a good old-fashioned, friendly town in which to live. And to the members of the Chamber of Commerce, work hard, don't give up your organization; great things are in store for your town that some one has to do. The road may be rough at times but put on anther pair of shoes and wade through-Wishing the Chamber o Commerce the best of luck, Respectfully, Mrs. C.J. Ehrman 581 Clevelan-i Ave. Amherst, Ohio C. of C. Plans For Amherst Day"; OICs Court House Plans for "Amherst Day," a community wide celebration scheduled for Labor Day, were discussed by members of the borad of directors of the Chamber of Commerce at their regular monthly meeting at the of fice of Atty. D. R. Goldthorpe on Monday evening J.J. Smythe was named chairman for the celebration, to be assisted by Conrad Zilch and Eric Nord. A parade, contests, exhibits, speeches, and fireworks are tentatively planned for the event. The directors also adopted a resolution approving the pro posed new site for the county court house adjacent to the Sam at the intersection of North Ridge and Leavitt rds. Reasons advanced by members for giving the move their support were 'that the proposed location is nearer the center) of the entire county than the present locatiani; the county already owns the ground, and there is plenty of room for all county activities; there would be ample parking space for all having business at the court house.

AMHERST, OHIO, THURSDAY, JULY 25, 1946 THE SANDSTONE CENTER OF THE WORLD Letters From Our Readers Thoughts expressed In this column are those of the writer and not necessarily those of the editor. Letters for this column are invited at all times. July 15, 1946 Mr. Roy Harr and Chamber of Commerce Associates Amherst, Ohio Dear Sir: Hope my letter is not too late im. regards to the question before our town: "Do we want more factories or keep it a residential town?" My opinion is to keep it a residential town, but one or two small factories would not come amiss, if they would be lo cated east of the U.S. Automatic Corp. or on Leavitt Road some where near the N.Y.C. tracks. Many thanks are due Mr. Wal ter Nord for what he has done for our town in making the U.S Automatic what it is today and don't kid yourselves that he did not have trying times. Now after the factory issue is settled, let's get down to the re idential part. Why can't Amherst have more homes?

While I am at it, another thought comes to my mind- Why cm't Amherst have a new High School building and use the present building for grade school only? Now there is something for us to work on. And also, don't forget the new addition to our hospital which is so badly needed. Let's sum up the reasons why many folks are located here.
