Makes Two Land Sales.

George F. Meyers has closed up two more land deals. He sold to Roy Chissom, of Chicago, the William S. Day five acre tract of land just south of Rensselaer. He also has sold to William Grube 240 acres of the Kersey farm in Wheatfield. Mr. Meyers is a hustler and he uses a good supply of printers’ ink. This combination always brings results. Joseph Hoover went to Logansport today. Coach Floyd Meyers, of the Rensselaer football team, states that prospects for a winner this year are exceedingly bright. Eighteen men were in uniform Tuesday evening. There is a wealth of splendid new material. The first game is scheduled for September 29th. R. E. Perkins returned to his home in Mishawaka, Ind., today after a visit with his nieces, Miss Ethel Perkins and Mrs. Jay JV. Stockton. Mr. Perkins is quite well acquainted with Rev. G. W. Titus, who is now pastor of the Christian church in Mashawaka and reports the former Rensselaer minister is succeeding splendidly in his new field. The qpntract for the new school house at Fair Oaks has been let and construction work will start very soon. The cost of the building is estimated at something more than $22,000. Baker & Price, of Logansport, will do the construction work, and Somers & Cornwell, of this city, will install the heating and .plumbing fixtures.
