Ouabashe State Park ' ■■ " i . ■ j Adams and Wells county should be proud that the former game farm, or Wells county state forest, has been converted into a state park, effective January 1. The 1,100-odd acres will now be developed, as are available, in the same manner as is required by law for state parks. People in this area are generally asking two questions: \ .< 1. Why is the pheasant program being discontinued? 2. Why will we now be charged 20 cents per person and 20 cents per car each time we enter the now state park, which we used to use “free”? The answer to question one has already been explained several times: Indiana, along with 48 of the remaining 49 state's! has decided to spend its money improving bird habitat rather than in releasing tame birds hatched by the department, and raised by interested persons. Indiana made the change because all of the studies made here, and in neighboring states, including Kentucky which will briefly continue its program, find it is not economically sound. More money is being spent than is justified by the number of cock pheasants shot by the hunters. The state is “ending” the bird program — it is changing the emphasis to improving habitat, rather than in releasing birds, because statistics show that it will receive more for its money. Question two, then is dependent on the answer to question one. If the bird program is discontinued, what will be done with the property? The answer of the department is the transferal of the property from the division of fish and game to the division of parks. Now, the division of fish and game obtains its money from license fees, hunting and fishing licenses, and the department feels that the money obtained from those licenses is better *g»ent nn ; trying to improve fishing and hunting, rather than in providing “free” park areas. The land could have been transferred to the division of forestry, except that the Wells county area is too highly developed as a park area to let those facilities be wasted. Under the present department of conservation, state forests will be operated as state forests, t not as recreation areas, and the latter will be transferred to the division of parks, so that the budgetary items will not be confused. With the transfer to the division of parks, it must be understood that all money received by the parks is obtained from the fees paid for admission. Therefore, if any staff is to be maintained, if the park is going to be improved, it must pay for itself, by fees, and as required by law. -The parks also bear part of the burden for the historical monuments and places, like the Geneva Limberlost Cabin home of Gene Stratton Porter, most of which do not pay their own way, but use money from the various parks.

Ulla Ohala M PabkNotiaa By Janes E. Pollard MARRIAGE INTENTIONS (No. 18 in a Series) J An eastern the names of couples who have applied for mariage license under the standing head of “MarriageIntentions.” In its way thia ta ia ' form of giving notice. It is still not to late, of course, for a change of mind - or heart - but unusally the “intention” is carried out. As is well known, certain churches follow the custom of publishing marriage banna for severals weeks prior to the religious ceremony that makes a man and a woman husband and wife. This is another method of giving notice of the intentions of the couple planning to be married. The word “bann” is like other English words that have different or even contradictory;/ meanings. It is sometimes spelled “ban.” In common usage a “ban” is usually an authoritative prohibition such as excommunication. But in the plural "banns” it means specifically as announcement of intention to marry. Both the publication of marriage license applications and the publication of marriage banns in church are examplei’bf the deeply rooted custom, both social and legal, of giving notice. State laws cover thousands of situations in which notice by publication must be given (mandatory) OT may be given (permissive). The standard medium for public notice is the bona fide newspaper of paid general circulation. It Is a wise provision of the law which stipulates their use for this public service. This is not only in keeping with the necessity for putting others on notice, but to give maximum coverage for the notice.

Pope Gives Warning On Shadow Os War

VATICAN CITY (UPD—Roman Catholics studied a papal Christmas message warning against the "shadow of war" and looked forward today to next year’s ecumenical council to help achieve Christian unity and peace. Pope John XXIII told world leaders Monday that "the judgment of history will be severe for those who have not done all that was in their power to remove humanity from the shadow of war." < Speaking to diplomats accredited to the Holy See, he said, however, that the world cannot seek “peace at any price” but one based on justice, Then he issued a papal bull, announcing that the first ecumenical council in 92 years will be held in 1962. The Pope said the date would be set "according to the opportunity favored us by Good Providence.” „ Convokes Council Hie 80-year-old pontiff said he wag convoking the council “at the critical moment of a new era” to augment “the desire of separated brothers for an auspicious return to unity.” The last ecumenical council opened in 1870, but the meeting of spiritual s leaders adjourned when Italian forces brought about the end of the Pope’s temporal power over the city of Rome. The pontiff said he has felt since his election as Pope “the urgent duty” to call another council to meet the world's “grave state of spiritual need.” “The moment seems to have arrived,” he said. The council will work to establish a basis of greater unity between the different Christian sects. It was expected that leaders of world Protestantism would be invited to attend as observers. Following a solemn midnight Mass, Pope John told the diplomats the world must seek peace based oh “justice which recognizes the legitimate rights of others and respects them; peace which results from free and loyal negotiations.” Mural Progress Fails - The Pope made no open reference to communism. But he

said the world’s moral progress has failed to keep up with material advances and noted “the existence of a militant atheism operating on a world scale." Attempts to build a stable international order without Christ are destined to be “ineffective,” the pontiff said. “Constructions which do not have Jesus as their cornerstone are all destined to crumble and fall with the first wind ...” He said “the very scientific progress which has given to man ... (the power to bring about) . . . his own destruction . . . has forced human beings Jto become more thoughtful, more conscious of their own liipits, more desirous of peace, more attentive to the importance of spiritual values.” Pope John offered his blessing to the world and said that Christmas this year was “even more joyous and presages a new future.”

Christmas Displays At Game Preserve Two Christmas displays in the Wells county state game farm will be exhibited yet this week, it has been announced. At one end of a deer pen, east of the observation tower, a manger scene, topped by' a cross, is depicted. At the opposite end of the shelter is a Santa Claus head and yule tree. Running about the pen area is a white-tailed fawn with a red ribbon about its neck. Employes have named the fawn “Rudolph.” The exhibit is well-lighted and may be viewed also during the evening hours. . Tomorrow, the annual holiday fox hunt will be held, starung at 10 a. m. at the service building office.- ■ Only shotguns will be permitted, along with dogs and bells for

flushing the foxes. January 1 the property known as the Wells county game preserve, or state forest, will be transferred from the fish and game division to the state park division of the department of conservation. When it was in the fish and game division, funds for maintenance of the aisa came from hunting and fishing license fees, or money generally earmarked for fish and game propagation. Now maintenance fees, as the Ouabashe state park, will come from admission fees, as required by law in state parks. Admission fee for all state parks is 20 cents ,-<fer person, 20 cents per car, with less charged for children.
