Dan Wilis as Supervisor.

MR. EDITOR:— I want you to publish this little article. It relates Dan_ Wirts who recently retired from the office of supervisor in our district in Blue River township. I do not think we have ever had abetter supervisor than he was, and he left us with the best roads we have ever had in the township. Too much can not be said for him as an officer. He was out on the roads and gave personal supervision to the work and saw that it was properly done. If every road district in the county has such a supervisor as he was, the condition of the highways would be much better than they are. If he had remained in the township, he could easily been reelected. He was absolutely impartial. He had no pets but treated everybody right who wanted to be treated right.

HIllSIIIG COPT

GREENFIELD REPUBLICAN, THURSDAY, MARCH 8, 1910.

SHOULD BE III BUT

The combination of the Reporter and Tribune has made the work of the office very heavy, almost the full capacity of the office force and equipment. It becomes necessary, therefore, to take advantage of conditions so as to get the best possible results. It is the desire to give every advertiser the best possible service. In or--der to- do so copy for advertising, will of necessity, have to be provided the printers earlier than has been the custom in the past. In order to secure insertion in the Weekly, all advertising copy will have to be supplied before nine o'clock Wednesday morning. We want all the advertising we can get and we desire to give the best possible service, but in order to do so, the printers must have the copy for advertising at the earliest possible moment. Persons getting their copy in early will get the best service, and those bringing in their copy late will have to take their chance.

SHIRLEY.

L. H. Ratliff, is the Republican committeeman for Shirley precinct, in Greensborro township. He was in Shirley Saturday making up his election board and selected the following to act: L. H. Ratliff, inspector Joe Steffey, judge Gus Beeson, marshal H. H. Spangler and Charley Jackson, clerks.

Jim Judge, who, some time ago, purchased the Schromber hardware stock and moved to Shirley and was the sole manager of the business, but becoming somewhat disgusted with the indoor business, decided to move back to the farm last week. His son, Orvaal will look after the business in the future and Jim will remain on the farm.

There is some talk that Jim Jones will move to Shirley. We are only too glad to say to Jim, that this will be a move in the right direction, as Shirley is the coming little city, that when her street cars begin to make schedule time, there will be no better place to live than Shirley.

Dr. Wilson will leave for Martinsville, where he will take treatment for rheumatism next Tuesday.

Walter Ham left for Kansas City last week where he will accept a traveling position selling paints.

Henry LaVallee, who has been at East St. Louis for some time firing a switch engine, is home making his parents a short visit. He leaves for that place next Monday to resume his duties at firing at the same place. He was formerly with the Hosek Brothers for five years engage in the lamp flue factory. He decided that there was abetter chance for a young man and decided to take up railroading. He is a young- man of 20 years, and has been a very steady and attentive man, which makes his future very promising, as there are great chances for promotion in the railroad business, He invited a few of his young lady and gentlemen friends in last Thursday evening and tne evening was spent in a most pleasant manner, long to be remembered by all.

Later—We are informed that Henry La Vallee will net be able to take his departure Monday, as he is sick and not able tp undertake the trip away from home-

Harvey Ogle is contemplating moving to Anderson, as he has had two positions offered him there, but is unable to settle the matter as to which he will accept as yet.

Noah Kuhn, who lived just north of Shirley, and owned a farm, has moved to Shirley and has leased the farm to Pleasant Estell. Mr. Kuhn will assist the Gates boys in the butcher business.

We understand that Dick Foutz will build on his vacant lot on Main street, He expects to build a two-story and occupy the second floor as living rooms for his family. He will make the cement blocks himself and put up a modern structure, that Shirley can be proud of.

John Cotteral has engaged himself to Ross Hodson, our implement dealer to sell farm impiements .and other farm necessities. John is a hustler and is making good thus far.

Hotel Wanted at Shirley.

Shirley needs—badly—a good hotel. There are some good boarding houses and restaurants, but no hotels, where transient travelers can find accommodation. The News has not been in•formed whether the ercction of a suitable building is contemplated or not but surely there is not a better opportunity for that line of business in Indiana than just here, and the man or men who will erect a hotel building of good capacity may reasonably expect a good return for his in-j vestment.—Shirley News.

To Investigate Library Needs.

Saturday before the business of the circuit court was begun Judge Mason called the attention of the bar to the law libraiy. The attorneys were all present to hear the call of the docket. Judge Mason remarked a number of expensive contracts or subscriptions for law publications were in force and he desired the opinions of others in reference to the advisability of their continuance.

Among the above are the Pacific, the Northeastern Reports, the "L. R. A.," etc. These reports come in circular form until a volume is completed and received, then the book takes its place on the shelf and the circulars are useless.

The law library in this county has cost from $8,000 to $10,000, and is one of the best in Indiana. Only a very few courts have libraries that in any way compare with this library, and this has an influence in bringing law suits here from other counties. The library is in the care of the bailiff of the court, at present Mr. Minos Handy. The library is not for the exclusive use of lawyers, as some perhaps erroneously imagine, but any man or woman in the county has a perfect right and is welcome to visit the library and make use of the valuable books. No books can be taken from the room, as this is a rule strictly enforced.

Judge Mason appointed William Ward Cook, Earl Sample, James F. Reed, Jonas P. Walker and A. C. Van Duyn a committee to investigate the library conditions and report next Saturday,

Cold Weather in Other Years.

There is a man in this city who keeps a daily record of the weather and has for many years, but his name has never got into print in this connection and he refuses to permit now.

According to his record, the week of February 16-22, 1896 was a very cold one, the mercury reaching 14 degrees below zero. During that week ice Avas formed on ponds to the depth of nine inches.

There was more exceeding cold weather on February 9, 1898. At 6 o'clock that morning therometer readings showed the temperature to be 20 degrees below. At noon it had risen but ten degrees. Two hours later it was only 8 degrees below and then it began to get cold again and dropped to 9 at 5 o'clock. At 9 o'clock that night it was 12 degrees below„

Greenfield people were treated to another "game of freeze out" on February 16 when the column in the glass tube got down to 16 degrees below. It rose slowly until 1 o'clock when it stopped at 2 below.

The month of March, 1898, was the coldest up to date, the average being only 37 degrees above. At the time it was claimed to have been the coldest March for 29 years.

Payment and Counter Claims. A. C. VanDuyne has filed an answer for William Tague in the case of Sisson vs. Tague in which he pleads payment and sets up a counter claim for damages for §2000.

This case is one in which Dr. Sisson sues Mr. Tague for §98 on the balance of account for services. The entire account was $916, §518 of which have been paid.

Mr. Tague was severely burned about two year* ago by a coal oil explosion, and has never recovered. He is still confined to his room and unable to walk. The burns are gradually healing, but the process is very slow. Even if the burns heal, Mr. Tague will have to learn to walk again, as he has not been able to take a step for almost two years.

Notice of Meeting.
