“Full recognition of Democratic women in all of the activities of the party in my opinion is one of our chief responsibilities” said R. Earl Peters Democratic state chairman at a Democratic rally at Rushville. Mr. Peters spoke in part as follows: ' 3 3

“It is not enough that women shall be entitled to a vote in organization matters. Their wholesome influence and advice should have a prominent part in all the conferences of the party and should be reflected in all of its decisions. . :

“Women of the Democratic party have carried their full share of the party’s responsibilities. They have given to organization work a measure of industry and sincerity that not only has reflected credit upon themselves and the party, but as well enhanced its prestige and effectiveness. It is, indeed a happy circumstance that Democrats generally are eager to accord to the women of our party their rightful place around the council table as well as in the field that embraces the drudgery and difficult tasks required to build a formidable organization.” :

Hold-up Frustrated

An attempted hold-up of the Indian filling station near the Goshen high school Saturday afternoon was frustrated when the attendant Gaylor Miller a high school student who is parttime rellef man at the station, battled with the robber. Miller was looking out of the window of the station and saw a man about 45 years of age drive up in a Whippet coach with an Ohilo license plate. The man stuck a gun in Miller’s side but instead of throwing up his hands Miller knocked the gun out of the man’s hands and a struggle ensued. The bandit eventually gained the upper hand seized -his gun and ran from the station.

Miller said he was so dazed by the encounter that he never thought of calling the' police.

Weather Holds Back Work.

‘Foreman H. C. Plummer of the Road 6 construction gang finds this weather a great handicap. The force; cut to the minimum manages to keep busy, but the big job filling the sinkhole so it can be crossed over, remains untouched because of the condition of the ground about it. The snow just softened up the dirt until it is still mud. o

Incidentally to answer a question that has been asked many times, the telephone people now setting back their poles along the right of way pay for the work themselves. ‘The moving is done at their expense—not at the expense of the state or county. “Broadway” a big spectacular production Crystal Sunday and Monday. : To Meet at Kendallville : .

WINONA DROPS ADMISSION FEE

Warsaw (. of C. Guarantees Organization $7,200 to Omit Gate Charge : During This Ye};

For the first time in the 36 years 'the Winona Lake chautauqua has been operating the assembly ground wiil 'be open to the public this season. '_ The gates to the park in the past !were closed during the six weeks- the ‘season was on and admission was by ticket only. When the town of Win-ona-Lake was incorporated a special act of the state legislature gave permission to so operate thus making it the only incorporated town in the United States where residents could not leave and come home without show ing a ticket of admission. = There has been a growing sentiment in favor of throwing the assembly ground open to the public and this year the directors decided to give it a trial after the Warsaw Chamber of Commerce had underwritten the com-~ ing season for $7,200 guaranteeing the sale of 1,200 season tickets at $6 each. Admission this summer therefore will be charged only at the auditorium where entertainments are being held.

A group of Syracuse business men who know the need of enlarging the fish hatchery on Lake Wawasee are planning to visit Indianapolis this week end, to summarize the necessity of this project to Walter Shirts" of the State Department of Conservation.

[ Several months ago the Chamber |of Commerce was instrumental in ob;tainingan option from A. J. Rollert on his ground north of the old ponds and on Lake Wawasee so that this ground could be made into ponds to enlarge the hatchery. Since the option of this property has been put in the hands of Mr. Shirts, Syracuge business men have learned at the state park in Steuben county waqts this fish hatchery. ' is week’s visit to Indianapolis is to show the desirability of the WawaSee location.
