by Cena BrownAs we all have noticed, in the last few months downtown

Marion has completely changed its appearance. This rejuvena­tion was partially funded by the downtown merchants in an effortto bring new life to the business district. To my knowledge theissue was never referred to the voters of Marion.

There are several problems that have arisen from the project.One of these is the inconvenience that many motorists faced dur­ing the construction. Delays and detours confronted anyone try­ing to get to the west end of town from east of David Street.Building materials left on the sidewalks overnight and gapingholes presented an obstacle course for evening strollers.

Now that the building phase is completed, the adjusting phaseis just beginning. Drivers who have been used to steering astraight course down Center Street are learning to snake theirways between S-shaped dividing lines. Curbs jut into newly con­quered territory. Parking space is even more minimal than ever.

However, there is a brighter side. Downtown Marion is a pret­tier place, thanks to the new foliage and gazebo. Perhaps eventhe sidewalk deterioration has been halted.

It is really too early to pass judgement on Marion's face-lift.Downtown Marion did need something, and maybe this was it.

Holiday OverbearingI

. by Gerica DenningWhy does It seem that Halloween no sooner gets over with

when stores set out their Christmas things even beforeThanksgiving is over ?

I feel they sta rt their Christmas really just so they can make asale. They don't seem to do it just because they want to showtheir Christmas spirit.

Just look at all the sales they have. The pre-Christmas salesthe Christmas sales, and the after-Christmas sales . You would'think all they worry about is Christmas.. I feel Christmas shouldn't be treated this way. Christmas is the

time for family get togethers, Christmas caroling, and decoratingthe Christmas tree. .. People get tired of Christmas before it even gets here. PeopleJust go out now and buy the presents for the family and thenthey forget about it. 'Whateve~ happened to.the spirit and traditions that Christmas

brought? LIke the stringing of popcorn and cranberries fordecorating the tree; now you can go to the store and buy silvertmsel to throw on the tree. Also what happened to making thetree ornaments?

Many people just go out and buy glass ornaments, electriclights, and something electric to put at the top of the tree.

I wish it would be like it was a long time ago. Where thingswere made to decorate the tree and candles were used to lightthe tree. Then there weren't a lot of-large stores to commer­cialize Christmas.

Wouldn't it be nice to be back in the "Good 01' days" forChristmas.

Just think, in a few more years, we may be getting ready forChristmas in July! .

peers are that different. In makinga decision, I try to keep to idealsalways in my 'mind. The first isthat everyone has the right to go toperdition in their own way. Thismeans that individuals have the

. privilege to make their ownmistakes, or to create their ownpurgatories.

You might ask why I didn't say,"to go to heaven," because younever stop a person from doinasomething you agree with, do you?It means doing what 1 want,because it was my decision and not

words: Act 19, and 'the voters willtreat you like 19.

Were my efforts successful?One's immediate response may beno, as I lost the election. But on themore positive side, I lost just by a2-1 margin; a margin many ex­pected to be wider. A candidate isonly a stranger once. Should Ichoose to run again , I will not needto re-introduce myself to the votingpublic. Finally, I gained an educa­tion about municipal government,voting behavior, issue develop­ment, political party organization,and campaign organization thatwould be unparalleled in any text­book.

The story just told is not thatunusual. I found myself confrontedwith a career choice; a choice Imade. I sought to educate myselftoward a career. It is not faced orwill soon face. This story just sup­ports the adage: where there's awill, there's a way.

By the time you are reading thisthe quarter will be nearly over. Atthis time there are numerous deci­sions such as: do I quit college,what classes do I take, should Iquit my job and go full time, and ismy life heading the way I want it togo? What these questions boildownto is "what do you want to do withyour life?" Now I am 18years old,I have traveled a little, have triedto listen and keep my mouth shut,but the only thing for sure that Iknow is that I want to go on learn­ing. I doubt whether many of my

Letter to the Editor

Dear Editor,I recently embarked on a career

rather uncommon among those ourage. As a candidate for elective of­fice in the city's last general elec­tion. I set myself aside from thepolitical stereotype of theapathetic teenage voter.

In 1979, a high school partici­pant, in the Great Lakes RegionYMCA Ohio Model Legislature, Iwas politically baptized. It was this"hands-on" experience involvingthe direct participation of thePresident of the Senate , the Gover­nor, the Secretary of State , andothers that I learned the function ofa legislature and its relation to theexecutive and judicial branches ofour democratic fonn of govern­.ment , It was something I marveledat , felt comfortable with, and quitecapable of committing myself to.Like the first sweet taste ofchocolate, it only added to analready irresistable appetite formore. -

After three short days of politick­ing and such, it was clear, mychoice was a career in govern­ment. I returned to my high schoolwith a new enthusiasm to graduateand enter Ohio State Universitywhere I would seek a degree inPolitical Science.

It was not until January of 1981,that I was first presented with theopportunity to again taste politicsand try a round in the politicalarena myself. It was then that afellowcampaign worker of the 1980presidential election confrontedme with this proposal: "Why notrun for Fourth Ward CityCouncil?" It was a suggestion Iwasted no time developing upon.And, after consulting family,friends, political leaders, and of-
