Fan mail from Dutch Icon viewer Anje Jonker

I enjoy very much reading the Bluffton Icon on my computer. I lived in Bluffton from 1963-1965. I was a Dutch MCC-trainee working at the library of (then) Bluffton College.

Shortly after having arrived at Bluffton some people took me to a small local museum, not far from Bluffton. At that museum there were many appliances and old machinery which we still used every day on my parents' farm back in Holland. It was like living in two eras at the same time.

I enjoyed my time in Bluffton very much.

Letter: Concerned that we keep funding for public media in Ohio

Dear State Congress people,
I am very concerned that we keep essential funding for public media in Ohio. I know that I speak for friends all over the state. The more local representation we have in our media, the safer and more educated we are.
