For the past three weeks Mrs De Bolt han kept a ha by rabbit alive by just that meant- and the bunny's doing okay, too. The bunny’s arrival at the DeBolt residence It something or a story, too. The Deßolts have a little terrier and the do* l-ady—ls always bringing something home, they nay. Three weeks ago Lady brought home her aupreme surprise package a baby rabbit, whose eyes had not been opened yet alter birth For days. with the help or Mrs Deßolt, Ijidy kept her charge under strict surveillance She would lie on the floor with her front paws

outstretched, the bunny between them. Every time the little tellow started to move away, Lady would gently but firmly cuff him back, or pick him up by sinking her teeth In his neck tur. The rabbit began growing and lardy began to lose Interest in her ward— almost as if she had decided the Deßolts could "take over now" and that her part of the task of rearing the little fallow was over. Now the rabbit Is well and healthy and the Deßolts plan soon to take him out In the country and give him his freedom. Meanwhile Lady, instead of maintaining her rule over the rabbit, merely looks at him, her head cocked to one side a bit disdainfully, as she watches hint hop about the Deßolt household watching for the appearance of that eyedropper. But the Deßolts are still a bit worried - wondering what Lady can bring home next, hoping there are no baby elephans in tbe community. 0 15 Percent Rent Hike Allowed Only If Lease Is Granted Many a Decatur tenant today began scratching his head and won dering how the family budget would stand that 15 nercent increase in tent, but rent control authorities said they had nothing—not much, that is—to worry about. The authorities pointed out that while the new rent control bill signed by President Truman does allow tiie boost, It is one in which the landlord and tenant enter into voluntarily in drawing up a lease to December 31, 1948. No boost can be automatically made, they said. The object of a tenant agreeing to the 15 percent boost in a lease that expires December 31. 1948 would be the foynation of a safeguard past February 29. 1948. when rent control expires, the authorities said. Cold, clean fresh water should l>e provided for livestock at all times. Evening and morning watering is not enough to keep the animals healthy.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Dual Job Holding By Republicans Hit Validity Os Indiana Diplomas Challenged Indianapolis, July I—(UP)—A state Democratic official today challenged th>* validity ol diplomas granted during the past two years by Indiana university. State chairman Pleas Greenlee charged that George Henley, Bloomington attorney, was speaker of the Indiana house of representatives and also a member of the board of trustees of the university. Greenlee said it was unconstitutional for one man to hold both jobs and said there was "at least a shadow of doubt as to validity of Indiana university diplomas awa d ed by the faculty with Hie •consent’ of the board when a member of that board is also a member of ami Republican floor leader of the assent lily." "This Is a circumstance that just can't legally exist under our constitution.” said Greenlee In review ing Democratic criticism of "dual jolt holding" by Republicans. He said he based his challenge on an Indiana supreme court decision of several years ago. The court held that a trustee of a state institution is a public officer Greenlee pointed out that the Indiana constitution will not permit a member of the general assembly to "be eligible ofr any office, tbe election to which is vested in the general assembly.” He said It was another examph* of “the high-handed manner in which state affairs are being handled by the Gates administration." Democratic legislators t ied un succiwsfully to unseat several law makers during the 191* general as semldy on the same grounds. And auditor A. V. Burdi is now hold ing up pay checks on what Green lee termed "these multiple job holders.” — o The highest point In Arizona is Humphreys I'tAtk, an extinct vol vano in the San Francisco mountains rising t!2,611 feet.
