Where Co-Operation Counts By OSCAR SCHMIDT. The person who invests his savings in a saving and loan association is an exponent of the highest ideals of financial Jlterprise. and he is also protecting the interests of his family by making a perfectly safe Investment. and he Is benefiting himself by securing an exceptionally good dividend. The small savings accounts of a thrifty family are as welcome as the life savings of a retired business man. Deposits are subject to withdrawal and always represent a first claim £• gainst the assets of the association. Many a working man is depositing his savihgs in *a saving and loan association -with the goal In mind that when his savings reach a certain figure he may borrow the balance necessary to build himself a home. Thus, after his money’has helped another he may in turn call for assistance. The savings and loan association Is the only financial institution In the country devoting its resources exclusively to that noble end —the building up of home communities. When it is considered that there is over $100,000,000 invested in savings and loan associations in the State of Indiana, of which more than $53,000,000 Is in various associations in Marion County, nearly every dollar of which is loaned to purchasers of homes, it clearly Indicates that there is no safer or better place to lnv’est your money.

Strange ‘Devil’ Fish Is Favorite Tale of Natives at Lake Manitou

The “devil” fish, from which Lake Manitou is said to have been named, has long been the legendary morsel which natives of Rochester loved to repeat to themselves—but more especially to visitors. The "devil” fish is. supposed to inhabit the lake. Weird tales of its prowess, size, and activities are Rochester’s contribution to the legends of the world. Just use the imagination, or better still, take a week-end trip to Rochester and hear for yourself some of the wonders of the "devil” fish. A Typical Hoosier Town The town of Rochester is a typical Hoosier town. The inhabitants are especially proud of their courthouse. But Lake Manitou is the main attraction. The lake is about three miles from Rochester. There is plenty of fishing, swimming and boating there. Two roads, little choice between either, go to Rochester from Indianapolis. Take the “Hlils and Lakes” road through Noblesville to Wabash. From Wabash take State road No. 7 to Peru and State road No. 1 to Rochester. Tlie Road Back Home On the way back you can take State road No. 15, which Is the Michigan road out of Indianapolis, go through Logansport, south through Boyieston and Kirklin into Indianapolis. Two slight detours are on this road, one at Logansport, the other at Boyieston. Neither is bad enough nor long enough to cause any worry. Os course, it’s possible to take the trip in t£e other direction. HIBERNIANS MEET MONDAY Mayor Shank to Address Ancient Order In Convention.
