Dear Editor,
The town (~f Perkins has al-
most everything necessary to
maintain an adequate lifestyle.
There are schools, cafe's, gro-
cery stores, hardware stores,
a department store, a doctor,
gas stations and garages, and
a bank.
For adult recreation, there
is a domino parlor and pool
tables in the local beer joints.
The younger children can be
intertained by the school play-
ground equipment or in the
municiple park.
But what about the teens? The
young adults? They are too
young to be comfortable in the
same place as the older folk
who don't like the same kind of
music or atmosphere. And they
are too old for the swings
m~d merry-go-rounds that Per-
kins has to offer.
