                  <text>From _The Sunbury News_, Thursday, Sept. 15, 1966, p. 7&#13;
&#13;
Sunbury Flour Sack Is In&#13;
Herbert Hoover Tower&#13;
&#13;
Sunbury is found among the&#13;
memenitoes in the Herbert Hoov-&#13;
er Tower at Stanford University&#13;
in Palo Alto, Calif.&#13;
&#13;
The tower houses the memoirs&#13;
of Mr. Hoover's public life in&#13;
service to his cauntry and fellow&#13;
men. Among these priceless&#13;
mementoes and of special inter-&#13;
est to Sunbury, Ohio, is an em-&#13;
broidered flour sack from the |&#13;
mill of G. J. Burrer &amp; Sons, Sun-&#13;
bury, Ohio. At the time of&#13;
World War I, Herbert Hoover -&#13;
was head of the Commission&#13;
sending flour overseas.&#13;
&#13;
Being grateful for this help,&#13;
the people of Belgium saved &#13;
flour sacks from various cities &#13;
and neatly embroidered all&#13;
wording and design on the sacks.&#13;
These they then returned to Mr.&#13;
Hoover as a token of their ap- &#13;
preciation. Each sack is dis-&#13;
played an its own rod which &#13;
turns on a post for easy view-&#13;
ing.&#13;
&#13;
Visitors from all over the&#13;
world can now admire these&#13;
beautifully embroidered sacks &#13;
and when central Ohioians see &#13;
one from Sunbury, a sudden &#13;
wave of pride and compassion is&#13;
felt for the days of yesteryear&#13;
when love and understanding &#13;
was also needed in our world.&#13;
&#13;
The above story was related to&#13;
Mrs. Edgar Satterfield by a Co-.&#13;
lumbus woman.</text>
