provide for them a happy life.
It is truly a perfect fit!

Cooper thoroughly enjoyed
the trains and Grammy en-
joyed watching Cooper.
Our Michael celebrated his
eighth birthday last week on
the first day back at school.
We spent the week end in the
Dallas area catering to him
and sight-seeing some of his
favorite places.
Our Labor Day was spent
with family and we enjoyed
supporting the beef industry
by eating grilled steaks!

To The
Editor
The Monitor
Box 39
Naples, TX 7556B
Dear Editor:
I remember a time when all of Naples was a nice, neat little town.
Where everyone took pride in their property and kids could walk to the
store without being scared.
Now my daughter is afraid to drive to our stores because some
"crackhead" is approaching her and begging for money on several
occasions. It hasn't just happened to her but almost every member in
my family. She is just really afraid and now drives to Omaha to get her
gas.
If someone is needy, that's one thing but this is NOT the same thing.
Most of our little town still looks neat and nice but I'm noticing more and
more that people abandon their property and let it grow up. Where is
the pride of our town?
I'm just asking the people of Naples, if you own property, keep it
clean (even if you don't reside there) and if you are a store owner, keep
the "beggers" off of your parking lots because they are scaring off your
business.
I love our little neck of the woods and just want to keep it safe and
looking great for generations to come.
Sincerely,
Janie McCollum Shaddix
