Edwards, Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Stove, Mr. and Mrs. John Johnson and daughter Dorothy, of Fort Wayne. CELEBRATE WITH DINNER SUNDAY A very pleasant, day was spent at the farm home of Mr. and Mre. W. A.

Floyd and Viola Carter, Mr. and Mrs. Forest Durr and daughter Marilyn, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Edgell and sons Olin and Dwight Lee.

RESEARCH CLUB HAS MEETING The Research Club met at the home of Mrs. Carrie Haubold Monday afternoon* Mrs. Daniel Sprang was program leader and read a splendid paper on the subject, “The restoration of Williamsburg” giving the history of that famous old city, its decline through the years and its restoration of colonial loveliness through the efforts of John D. Rockfeller. Jr. “Williamsburg was built when life was simple, and here history is symbolized by the homes and venerable public buildings of harmonious and beautiful design. Years ago Williamsburg was just another city, with little to tell of its ancient importance. The palaces and the capitol had long beer razed and the original college buildings of the William and Mary College were rebuilt, it was just a noisy town with nothing but gas stations and hot dog stands and a few modern buildings. Then the rector of Bruton Parrish Church Interested John D. Rockefeller. Jr., in the plan of restoring the town to its former appearance. Architects and engineers made extensive study of early Virginia homes, families and habits.A search was made for all photographs and plans of the town. The entire city of clubs and societies, together with the officials, began the task of rebuilding it to its former self. The time and money spent is a staggering sum. Today prosperity has come to Williamsburg in employment of many kinds. Ladies and gentlemen dressed in the colonial costume act as guides through the public Ibuildings and lovely old gardens. There is a constant stream of tourists the year around and the lover of early American history learns much by visiting this quaint

Lawrence (Copyrignt 1938 by United Press) Washington, Nov. 30 — <U.R> — A high administration official indicated today that President Roosevelt might act before spring to revive peace talks between the American federation of labor and the congress of industrial organizations. Mr. Roosevelt and his labor advisers were represented as hopeful. however, that AFL and CIO leaders themselves would resume negotiations without outside interference or presidential intervention. It was emphasized that Mr. Roosevelt will make no obvious peace move until the “time is ripe"—until he believes that leaders of both factions of organized labor would be receptive to mild prodding. There was little indication today of progress in the administration’s behind-the-scenes campaign for labor unity—a campaign that was begun with Mr. Roosevelt’s public bid for peace in a letter to the AFL convention at Houston. A similar letter went to the ClO’s first constitutional conven-
