To the Editor: Hi, Sue. First of all, I found the fishhook on page 23 in the Victoria City Hall news on the ear of the soccer boy. Leon couldn't find it after looking through the Gazette three times. He said, "Pretty tricky." We have fun looking for it. Secondly, what a surprise! Your front page story about Vic's Bar and Grill was very interesting to me. The only thing I did when I was raising my family was house clean like five days a week. I first worked for Davey Hovander in Hopkins for quite a while. After working quite a while for Davey, she asked if I wanted to work for her daughter Brenda, and I said sure I would. I worked for Brenda while her two kids were in grade school, so I was there alone. It was a nice job. Brenda looks well. They sure have done a lot to the bar. We haven't been there, but we intend to go. It sounds like a good place to go when you're hungry. I'm sure you have been there. When you go next time, please say hi to her from me. Thank you. Keep up the good news. We certainly enjoy the paper. Carol Maas St. Bonifacius, Minnesota
To the Editor: Guess I'm like you in regards to reading all the happenings from years ago. I didn't know you were in Victoria 40 years. I grew up in Chaska. Did get to Victoria occasionally years ago but haven't been there in quite some time. Sounds like the town is looking great. I don't drive and said many times that if you can't drive, you don't get to many places that you would like to see. Found the fishhook on page 23 on the little soccer kid's hair. Have a great summer, everyone. It should cool down soon ... we hope ! Ethel Schneider Shakopee, Minnesota
To the Editor: Hi, Sue. You're an "earth angel," publishing such a delightful paper. You have been given the knack from above and it shows. Thank you. Connie Borak Chaska, Minnesota
To the Editor: Hi, Sue. First, I just wanted to let you know how much I have enjoyed the Gazette the eight years we have lived here in Victoria.. Sadly, we are relocating to California (Ugh! Not for long, I hope.) I was wondering if I can get a subscription sent to me at my new address in CA. Please let me know where I can forward a check and I'll send you my new address. Having lived in several states, I can tell you that Minnesota and especially Victoria have been a joy to call home. Hope to be back. Best regards. Joanne Wintroath Victoria, Minnesota
To the Editor: I was saddened to see that the advertising brochure about Tour de Stieger did not spell Stieger correctly. In the July 1989 issue of the Victoria Gazette, there is an article that states the City of Victoria will work to correct the spelling on city maps, files, and city street signs. Alas, this is not being done. I will leave a copy of that Gazette article in the city offices. Uncle Ron Holtmeier Victoria, Minnesota
To the Editor: We would like to offer our sincere thanks for the flowers, plants, cards, food, gifts, and memorial donations sent in memory of our son, Steven Schenten. A special thank you to the Victoria Fire Department, Pastor Brian Dixon, and Father Bob White. We appreciate very much all of your support and care. Ruth and John Kroening Victoria, Minnesota
To the Editor: As people venture outside to enjoy their favorite summer pastime, extremely high temps can affect the body's ability to keep cool. Heat stroke is the most serious heat-related illness and occurs when the body becomes unable to control its temperature. Take a cool shower. Seek an air conditioned environment. Wear lightweight loose-fitting clothing. Work outdoors in the morning. Drink water and juices. Kim Stender/Right at Home Plymouth, Minnesota
