DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 8,1921.

MONROE NEWS Mrs. Israel Stoneburner and son, of Decatur, were guests at the home of G. D. Glancy and family last Friday. Mrs. Miller Hendricks, living on West Walnut street, while papering a room at her homo on last Thursday afternoon, met with a painful accident when the stepladder on which she was standing broke, throwing her to the ground, and in some manner ran a splinter into her forearm measuring fully two inches. Otto Ixibenstein, who was nearby at the time, extricated the splinter with a pair of pliers. While the injury is a very painful one, causing Mrs. Hendricks great pain, yet it is not a ser lous one. On last Thursday a party consisting of Wm. M. Mitchel and family, George H. Rice, wife and son, Clark Mitchel and family, Grant Owens and family, Forest Owens and wife, H. E. Rupert, Sylvan Rupert, of Monroe, Phillip Carper and family, and Mrs. Ruth Titus of Decatur, hied themselves to the banks of. the Wabash near Linn Grove. The party at once prepared for action after their arrival to commit a wholesale slaughter on the finny tribe. As an inducement to incite competition a purse was hung up as a prize of flvd cents for the first fish caught measuring four inches or over, which was pulled down by Phillip Carper of Decatur. No reports show who was the master fisherman of the day. At the noon hour an excellent picnic dinner was served, after which, as a "dinner settler” horseshoe pitching was indulged in which Grant Owens and Floyd Mitchel were the victors, other games and amusements, were also pulled off. Supper was then served, the bill of fare consisting of ice cream and cake with hot wienies as a side dish. It is said that no record was kept as to the number of wienies devoured, but George Rice and "Buzz” Harve Rupert are in dispute as to the number each one masticated. Taking it all in all, this oc- ; casion is reported to have been one of the best and enjoyable occasions of this season. Miss Thelma Burkhead left Mon- ' day for Angola, where she will take a I twelve weeks’ teacher’s course at the Normal college. Mrs. Alexander Johnloz, afed 29, died at her home Sunday morning at 1:30, after a long and lingering illness from enlarged spleen. Funeral services will be held Tuesday afternoon at the Friends' church, conducted by the Rev. Reichenbach. Burial will be made in the Berne cemetery. She leaves a husband and two small children. Messrs. Carl Shrik and Fred Andrews and Misses Edna Andrews and Lucile Tribolet drove to Fort Wayne Sunday to visit relatives. Dr. Martin, district superintendent, of the Fort Wayne district, held the first quarterly meeting for the conference year at the M. E. church at this place on Sunday morning and afternoon. Dr. Martin is a fine speaker and delivered an excellent sermon at the morning service. The Epworth League of the M. E. church will give an ice cream social on the parsonage lawn on next Wednesday evening. All are invited to attend. Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Noffsinger, son, Clyde, and daughter, Rena, living one half mile south of Monroe gave a home made ice cream party consisting of three large cakes. Those ' present were Mr. and Mrs. Dr. Somers and son, Gerald, of Monroe; Mrs. Nettie Bowman, Miss Mary Bowman, . Harve Bowman, of Monroe; Bryan I Hendricks, of Fort Wayne; Mrs. | Christena Niblick, Jesse Niblick, Miss Fannie Hite, Miss Madge Hite, of Decatur.

Menno S. Liechty and family were over-Sunday guests of the latter s parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wittwer and mother, at Fort Wayne. On Tuesday about noon, Fred Andrews who is hauling stone, accidently struck his arm on the wagon bed and struck a boil on that member causing him to faint and fall under the wagon. The mules attached started to walk off, causing the wagon to pass over the upper part of his legs. While the injury is not considered a serious one, yet it is a very painful one. Fred will likely be housed up for several days. Lester and Sanford Wagoner left here Tuesday for Ashley, Ind. Sanford will return to Angola normal colI lege for a twelve weeks’ course, from Ashley.

It is three parallel lines between the brows. We can detect the first traces of disease by signs just as plain .

MONEY IS WASTED By the Shovelful, is Charge Made by Mr. Robison, Kansas Congressman TO FEDERAL BOARD In Soldier Rehabilitation Work—Says ‘Mush-room’ Schools Are Organized — (By Herbert W. Walker, United Press staff correspondent) Washington, 1). ('., June 8. —(Special to Daily Democrat) —Charges that I federal funds are being wasted “by the shovelful" by the federal board ( for vocational education, in its soldier rehabilitation work were made today by Representative Robinson, republi- . cun, Kansas. If the present policy is continued ( the government could give every disabled soldier SIO,OOO in cash and then more soldiers would get the money ( than will be rehabilitated by the present board, he said. ; Under present practices the rehabilitations bill will exceed $1,000,-1 000,000, Robinson said, stating that I already $265,000,000 has been appro-. printed. The congressman said he fa-| voted aiding the disabled men, but I that although $145,000,000 already had [ been actually expended only 3,0001 men have rehabilitated —a cost of $45,000 a man. Overhead expenses of the board are | extremely high, he charged in claim-' ing that in April, 1921, the board paid | $8,000,000 to the wounded men and' $3,000,000 in salaries. Robinson claimed that the board is | allowing “mushroom” schools to be or-1 ganized over-night for the training oft men and large sums given their promoters instead of sending the wounded | to state universities and established! schools. — IT’S STILL GOING ON (United Press Service) Mexico City, Juen 8. —(Special to) Daily Democrat)— Reports credited to the Mexican war department today cald four unarmed Americans had been captured between Parral and Starosalia, presumably by bandits. $ S—S—WANT ADS EARN—
