Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Phillips Return From California; Interesting News Sidelight 2—The Mill City Enterprise, Thursday, May 8, 1969 Womavü. Page. By Rose Cree Mr. and Mrs. Clyde Phillips returned last Tuesday from a trip to Southern California where they visited relatives. When Mrs. Phillips writes to her daughter in San Diego she sends her the clippings from The Enterprise of events that they have attended. In a town the size of San Diego the locals aren’t quite like those we have in our Enter prise. She thought since her parents were coming for a visit it would be nice to be able to have them pick up the paper and see her name in print. She finally decided she'd go to the office of the San Diega Evening Tribune and in the personal column just pay for a space and have her name "Susie Hansen” printed. So she went to the paper and explained about her parents living in a small town and their name was in the paper almost every week. The lady sympathized with her and said she, too, had lived in a small town and she understood what she meant but it just couldn’t be dine. The lady was telling Neil Morgan who writes a column each evening for the paper about Susie wanting her name in the paper for her parents to read and much to Susie's surprise the following article appeared on the front page of the San Diego Evening Tri bune. "Merna from Our Man Fri day” Dear Neil Morgan. Susie Hansen is a cute young thing who gets a sheaf of clippings each wek from her parents in Oregon. Theyre big in the county weekly social notes there when her mother enter- tinns their next door neigh- tors. or her father gjes to an auction at Mill City. Poor Su sie. She'd like so much to send back a clipping of a San Diego paper with HER name in it, but she guesses she never does anything great enough to get into the paper here. Guess not.” P. S. Well, she accomplished what she wanted, her name on the front page. Move to Mill City, Susie, and you'll get your name in the newspaper here.
