Dear Editor:We sincerely appreciate the coverage of the painting of the historic Dismukes House in the July 24th Downey Patriot and not in passing. Thanks also for the picture credit on Page 4 of last week's paper. As the old saying has it, "History moves along but often looks back." Open hours at the Center in Apollo Park are 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Wednesday, Thursday and each third Saturday. - John Vincent, President, Downey Historical Society
