Aged Couple Escapes Burning Home. Elkhart firemen worked for an hour and half with lines of water early Friday morning to extinguish a fire in the residence of Mr. and Mrs. Frank E. Bryson of Elkhart. Asleep in an ‘upstairs bedroom, Mr. Bryson 85 and Mrs. Bryson .83 were awakened shortly before 6 a. m. by the odor of smoke, and they dressed and made their way safely out of the house. From an undetermined cause the fire developed on the stairway to the basement. The flames charred the cellarway, and pierced upward through a ceiling into an upstalrs bedroom. An attic above a one-story rear portion of the house was badly burned and holes were burned through the roof of a second story bedroom on the north.

P. Conley and his corps of helpers at the Rome City postoffice these days. Since the fire, which destroyed the room occupied by the postoffice, along with equipment including the cancelling machine, Postmaster Conley has added burdens particularly at this Christmas season when there is more than the ordinary run of mall.} Unfortunately, he has no cancelling machine, and is anxiously awaiting one hefore the Christmas rush is at its height. In mailing a letter at Rome City, Postmaster Conley is obliged to pick up “his pen and write across the stamp “Rome City, Ind.” giving the date and hour. This requires considerable time and recalls the time when the postoffice department was operating in days of its infancy. Naturally, philatelists will be’ anxious to acquire some of these stamps cancelled at Rome City by the primitive method to add to their collections. skidding Autos Attack Lunch OCar, Mrs. John O] Woodworth, owner of the Black and White lunch car on Detroit street LaGrange is beginning to think folks there tried to ‘‘pick on her’”. Mrs. Woodworth had just got her Christmas’ tree nicely decorat ed and lighted on the walk in front of her place of ‘business, when an automobile skidded on the ice and ¢hot over the curb. The tree, lights and all was demolished. A few hours later Dennis Lung, who had his car parKed across the street from the Woodworth dincr, tried to back away from the curb. His wheels had frozen in the ice and when he gave the car an extra spurt of gas, it shot backwards across the street, up over the curb and into the front of the diner. The awning was torn down, the flower boxes oOn the outside were smashed and the side of the diner was caved in.

State Parks For Holiday Outings The Indiana state parks will be the scene of many holiday outings, Virgil M. Simmons, commission of the Department of Conservation said, with the park inns as the background for outdoor activities.. Winter sports have been in full swing at Pokagon while gues#s at MecCormick’s Creek, Turkey Run and Clifty Falls enjoyed skating, coasting and other activities during the past week when ice and snow covered the ground.

Hoosiers no longer feel that the state parks are to be visited during the summer months, discoveringz that the most famillar scenes take on a new attraction during the winter months when the leaves have fallen and the ground is covered with snow. While winter sports are limited to occasions when there lis snow for coasting or skiing and ice for skating or ice-boating, these activities have an increasing number of davotees in Indiana.

Battling Sleet. Maintenance workers fought a continuous battle against sleet and ice Jast week, attempting to protect traffic on the state highway system, Farl Crawford chairman of the State Highway Commission, said. All available man power and equlpment was used first in cluring snow from the pavements and then in the removal of ice or spreading of sand and cinders. : > Continuous rain which became ice as it reached the ground, made many miles of highways extremely slippery. Sand and cinders spread on the high ways were soon buried under a new layver of ice, necessitating repetition of the operation. Many of tn. maintenance crews worked day and night clearing snow from the pavement, breaking up drifts. , | Dies at Age of 102 Mrs. Rebecca Goens 102 died _at ‘Worthington Saturday. She “would ‘have been 103 years old on. March 9.
