Did you ever realize that there is a bit of picturesque scenery about this city? There is, and if you have a kodak or camera take a trip down towards the river and find some point of vantage where you can get a glimpse from a high bank of the old St. Marys crawling around and under weeping foliage which almost forms an arch over the stream. There is hardly an.y way in which a person can do so much for his own locality, with so little cost and at the time with so much benefit to himself and his family, says the Bay City News, as by giving a hearty support to his local paper. A newspaper with evidence of substantial support in its pages speaks volumes for a town. The fact that every trade seeker has an advertisement in it impresses strangers. Under the law of the last legislature it is now the duty of administrators and executors to go to the clerk's office and either allow, disallow or allow in part all claims that have been held against their estate for thirty days. If this is neglected the clerk must transfer such claims to the trial docket and the costs of the same must be charged by the court aga inst such negligent administrators personally. The days for doing this are the first day of January, March, May, July, September and November. Says Allison Maxwell, dean of the Central College of Physicians: “Indications seems favorbale to an ultimate consolidation of the Medical College of Indiana and Central College of Physicians and Surgeons with Indiana State University, but from present indications I don’t think this will bo brought about soon; at least not in the immediate future. Settling an importiint matter like this is necessarily a very slow process. There are almost forty officials of the three institutions, who will have to reach an entirely satisfactory and amicable agreement before this consolidation can be brought about and it usually takes forty men some time to see a matter in the same light and settle their differ cnees satisfactorilly."
