New York State criss-crossed by faults






AN INVITATION!

After a brief sabbatical, Advocates for Morris is back. It's a New Year--and we're ready for action!

Advocates for Morris is a citizens' organization whose members are concerned about the future quality of life in the Town and Village of Morris--and we're inviting new members to participate in our work.

C'mon! Take an active part in the decisions currently being made for our community. Make certain that our local government is heeding the will of the people. Don't allow corporations or industry--or their promises of financial gain to a handful of Morris residents-- to determine our future.

The Unreasonable Man

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world.

The unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.

Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.
