lower gas prices in area
7-11-00
To
the editor:
This
is not something I want published with my name, but I wanted to
let you know about gas prices. I was in Springfield yesterday
(7-9-00) & the prices are just amazing!!
Qik
'n EZ (near the fairgrounds) was $1.28 per gallon as were the
Freedom Station (between Sherman & Springfield) and of all
things, the Phillips 66 Station near the fairgrounds (Burwells).
Why are they still $1.59 in Lincoln?
Shop
Lincoln? NO WAY!!!
Although
I have not shopped in Clinton, I hear that their prices are in the
$1.30 price range (not sure on that one). You may want to check on
that.
I
think the people of Lincoln should know & ask what is
happening with the gas prices in Lincoln! Why should we be paying
$.31 more in Lincoln than surrounding communities. Someone has a
pretty good profit margin going on here!

Pleased
with mayor's alderman choice
7-7-00
To
the editor:
I
was so pleased to see that Mayor Ritter had appointed Rev. Shelton
to Ward 4 Alderman that I called her to thank her for her superb
judgement. Rev. Shelton had epitomized "Servant
Leadership" over the years to both his Congregation and our
Community. Mayor Ritter could not have named a more worthy servant
to this Office.

Local
Fourth of July activities were great
7-6-00
To
the editor:
This
years 2000 Fireworks were arguably the best I have seen in our
fair city. Boone Lee and Company definitely deserve high praise
for this years show. I sat with my wife at the Immanuel Lutheran
Church lawn enjoying popcorn and Lemonade. Thanks to Immanuel
Lutheran for their hospitality and again thanks Boonie and company
for a great show. See you next year.
Go
see The Patriot at the Lincoln Cinema. My wife and I went to see
it on the 4th. It was raining and the fireworks were cancelled so
we enjoyed a great movie. What a great way to celebrate
Independence Day 2000.

Lord Bless You
