...acre farm in the bountiful Penns Valley not far from Harrisburg, Pa. (she also plays the organ at the Lutheran Church). But Mrs. Wise says she sometimes wakes up in the middle of the night and thinks: "My heavens, there are 2,000,000 teachers out there. Then I wonder about what 2,000,000 people could do if they had the right leadership."
