Frank Barweiler, son of Frank Barweiler, sr.. well known young man was married today to Miss Olga Houck, daughter of George Houck, of Honduras The young couple kept their marriage a secret and even the young ladle's parents do not know where they were married. It's thought however, the marriage took place ! n Decatur as their license was granted there. Both Mr. Barweiler and . Miss Houck are fine young people and t will receive the best wishes of their hosts of friends. Mr. Barweiler has a ( fine home prepared for his bride and they will reside in this city.—Bluffton News. s Alex R. Holliday, assistant fuel t.lL ministrator for Indiana, recently ap- ( pointed by Mr. Evans Woollen, points out that the conservation of coal should appeal to the head of the house for the reason that it is putting money i in his pocket and, in most cases, it is making for better health in the fam- ' ily. “The average American home is kept too hot during the winter. If the 1 temperature is kept about 70 degrees and if persons formed the habit of sleeping in cold and well ventilated bed rooms, not only will there be a saving in the coal, there will be valuable benefits in the way of better health. Nothing is more expensive, both in money and health, than an overheated and poorly ventilated dwelling.” Gary (Ind.) has the reputation of having the most complete and most modern fire department for any city of its size in the United States. It is entirely motorized, and aided by good roads, efficient management, no political intrusion into its affairs, as well as a high-pressure system with mains in the streets, not forgetting the paved alleys of ? business districts, the department is widely known as a top-notch organization. Wilfrid Grant, chief of the fire department at South Bend for fifteen years, has been chief of the Gary department for the past four years, and so successfully and. efficiently has the department been managed during. his administration that the reduction | in fire insurance premiums to the; people of Gary annually amounts to a sum equal to what they pay in taxes. —Gary Times. With the appointment of the fuel I administrator in each county, coal con sumers and retail dealers will be able to get in direct touch with an authorized agent of the government. Each fuel administrator has been given a free heand in organizing his county as he sees fit and he will be the one authority in the county recognized t-y the United States fuel administrator in Indianapolis. The county administrator will, with the aid of whatever agencies he may see It to call upon, make a survey of conditions so that he will have a very definite idea of his county’s immediate and future needs. He may find it necessary, as one of the assistant field administrators. Mr. iW. J. Hoover, has suggested, to place a definite limit to the amount of coal each person is permitted to buy. The 'apportionment of the coal sent to his | county will be one of the phases cf his work. vMASONIC CALENDAR FOR WEEK ENDING NOVEMBER 10 Tuesday, November 6 at 7:30 p. m.
