Centennial News: The deadline for the Max Library Centennial Cookbook recipes and/or hints, is December 31, 2005. They haven’t been receiving any lately so once again, send them in. If you have e-mail, just send them that way. The Max Library e-mail address is: maxlib@restel.net And they want to thank everyone for helping them get the toilet paper tubes.

While putting up a picture of the beautiful male black and brown German Shepherd dog that has been found and living with us at 679-2459 until his owners can be found, I noticed a Realtor’s notice for the sale of the Centennial Cafe in Max. Any alumni who would like to move back to Max and run a cafe? There are still a lot of opportunities in Max for businesses. Look on the Max web-site for some that are needed. Come back to your ‘roots’ and help with your town’s Centennial Celebration. “Destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved.” William Jennings Bryan
