STAY DRY

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

We are writing to express our strong conviction regarding the so-called beer and wine issue in Vineyard Haven. Our conviction grows out of a good many years of experience and observation in a considerable number of communities where we have been associated.

Letters To The Editor

REMEMBER TO READ

Dear Mr. President:

Things to do on Martha’s Vineyard:

1. Read the Vineyard Gazette.

2. Go to the Ag Fair and get a corn dog and if you can, you should go to the pig races.

3. Go to the Chilmark Store to buy a muffin or a bagel, then enjoy it on the porch.

4. Try to boogie board at the beach, then you should relax and eat some snacks and play a game with your family (you should snack on a lobster roll and a Vitamin Water).

HURTFUL LESSON

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

Dating back to the early 1940s when the Steamship Authority’s ferry would leave from New Bedford, it has been a tradition for my family to vacation in the summer on Martha’s Vineyard. Therefore, when my grandsons were born, this tradition continued.

Routinely in the morning, the boys (now 11 and 13) and I would have our breakfast and then read a few chapters from our respective books. After reading at least three chapters, we would have a discussion.

MONSTER SPECTACLE

Editors, Vineyard Gazette:

Public spectacles like the annual monster shark tournament have much in common with the gladiator games conducted in the Coliseum during ancient Roman festivals. Large, adoring crowds immersed in a circuslike atmosphere amid unbridled commercial activity, awaiting the extravaganza of torture, execution and the eventual display of victims.
