victifii of shooting was too late to reply. I have treasured her notes of encouragement and. congratulations, and now they have become keepsakes. Evelyn Seward liked to communicate by letter writing rather than telephoning. And for one, am glad she did.

I could not have kept a telephone call as I have her hand-written letters. I'm reminded of a comment from Evelyn's good friend, Suzanne Jones, concerning the lost art of letter writing since the telephone has replaced the pen as a tool of communication. Some persons pass on without any significant example of their or- treasured-opinions. We could all learn a lesson from one of our city's best-known natives. Evelyn Seward took the time to write about and work for the causes she believed were important Her home town was not just a place to live.

It was a place to improve and preserve. Nor did her efforts at improvement and preservation stop with her community. Her chosen causes ranged from one suffering soul to include an abused planet No effort to improve was too small to consider or too large to tackle. She believed one person could make a difference. And she worked diligently to convince others that they too can cause changes in their corner of the world.

Too many of us wait for a support group before we take a step toward improving our world. We so easily forget that most of the important changes this world has experiencd were championed by one daring, determined, undaunted person. You may not have the time to address the multiple maladies that Evelyn Seward was free to give herself to. But you can choose to touch the lives around -you in important ways. You can make yourself available for someone who may need you.

Develop an open heart policy. YouH be surprised at the difference you can make and the sense of accomplishment you 11 enjoy.

Community electronic library proposed By George Piper The Republic A 45-year-old Columbus woman and her family say they are scared and feel violated after a bullet entered their home early May 28 in the. 2200 block of Chestnut Street "IVe not had a very good day," she said. "We're all just a little bit scared.

"It's a scary thought to think someone can do that to your home where you think you're safe and it can happen again." The victim's boyfriend and her pregnant daughter and husband-home from the military also live there. Columbus police responded to the house about 615 a.m. after the woman reported a bullet hole and a slug in her bedroom. The shot entered the living room about a foot from the front door. The slug entered the house, struck a bedroom dresser, then fell to the floor.

The police have not determined the bullet's caliber. The incident occurred around 3 a.m. The victim thought she heard glass shattering, but went back to sleep. After three hours of restless sleep, she awoke to find plaster all over her bedroom floor. The victim has no idea why the incident occurred.

She character ized the neighborhood where she has lived for nine years as quiet with mostly older residents. "You feel violated," she said." "You're in your home where you think you're safe." "Maybe they havent hurt anyone yet but there's going to be that first time." The committee said it would cost about $200,000 to pay for the hardware and software that would allow access to library information 24 hours a day. From Staff Reports North High School's Technology in Education Committee is seeking money from cable franchise fees for a community electronic library. The committee made the proposal for CARE-Net a Community Access Information' Retrieval Network, at the Bartholomew-Columbus Telecommunications Commission meeting Wednesday. Services would include electronic catalogs of regional library holdings, magazine and newspaper indexes, career resources, encyclopedias and a community "bulletin board.".
