Oaaa Man Matter.
V A New Bridge Necessary . Bridee experts have reported that the expenditure of $25,000 on the Main street bridge will not repair the structure so that it will be safe for heavy traffic. The expenditure of this amount of the county'sunds would result only in a makeshift structure, or in other words, according to the findings of bridge engineers, the money practically would be wasted. A bridge that can not carry the heavy loads that must cross the Whitewater river at Main street is a bridge that is of no use to tihe taxpayers of the whole county. What is needed is a new bridge, one that will be strong enough to carry the heaviest load. 'Action toward this ipnd is imperative. The action of
the county council in deferring an appropriation, based on the fact, so the council stated, of not having sufficient data to decide on the kind of bridge, places the matter in a complicated and perplexing condition. The commission cannot act. Their action has been forestalled. They must wait until the council sees fit to pass an appropriation that will enable them to go ahead with the work. , Should the commissioners spend the $25,000 for repairs that are confronted with the fact that they are spending foolishly the sum of money, for the bridge, so everybody agrees, cannot carry the traffic. Should the commissioners order the structure torn down, there would be no span across the chasm. The county council ought to solve the problem and solve it at once. If it is true that it does not have sufficient data, even after the bridge commission has reported, let the council at once en
gage competent engineers and supply itself with
information. The plea of ignorance is hot a tena
ble one, for nowdays information on bridge build
ing and other engineering work can be obtained
easily. o ,.-.. - It is certain that a new bridge is necessary.
The old one cannot be repaired satisfactorily. Let the county council face the issue bravely and act according to the dictates Of sound business policy
and for the public good. ; ,

Referring to my resignation as attendance officer for Wayne county, according to law I should have taken office on August 1, but when I reported to County Superintendent Williams he told me that as Secretary Melpolder of the social service bureau had taken over the Richmond city school district and that there wouldn't be anything for me to do until Septembe 15, and then only two days a week. I It waB also hinted that under the changed conditions the trustees outtide of Richmond and Cambridge City would have to take care of the attendance of. their 'own school districts. Superintendent Williams also said that h did not think that I could legally serve, as I actually lived outside of the district in which I was to serve. Although the impression has been made on the public that Melpolder would serve without pay, yet It is an actual fact that either Melpolder or the social service bureau will get $300 for his services, which leaves only 1200 for the balance of the county. Either for financial or political reasons, or both, when the present trustee
of Wayne township took office, he was usked to appoint Melpolder as his deputy, for which purpose the trustee is allowed $600 a year. Failing thiB, the Richmond school board asked Mr. Williams (after one of the members had already endorsed my application) to place Melpolder's name before the county board of education as an applicant for attendance officer of Wayne county, but Mr. Williams refused. I merely state these facts to satisfy inquiring friends, especially those who so kindly endorsed my application. I presume that if the social service bureau succeeds in having Melpolder appointed probation officer, it will not be so much as to saving the county money, as it will be to secure another contribution toward his salary.

CIVIL WAR DAYS). John Foulke. one of the pioneers Richmond, was discussing matters that occurred In the city during the Civil war, the other day. . . He said that daring the war the Eighth, Sixty-first, Sixty-ninth.

Many exchanged prisoners came through- hers on their way home, and they were always hungry. Mr. Foulke said that nearly every Sunday the fire bell would ring, and this was to notify the housewives
that there were soldiers to feed, and they would begin to prepare to take care of them, for no soldier was

One soldier remarked to Mrs. Foulke on this occasion, that if "this is the
way you treat strangers, how do you

mark the grave. One night in 1845
three men entered the park and destroyed the tombstone, for at that

- After tfeey ad. been married six months she found that ha was not the perfect man she bad thought ha was during their courtship. In many ways she was disappointed. Sometimes her discouragement waa , almost usvbear-. able. What did she do? Did she run home and tell her mother? Old she rush to confide la some girlhood friend who would have spread the story all over the city? Did she hurry to a lawyer and drag : her troubles across the flrst page of a newspaper under the white light of publicity? She did none of these things. She was a sensible young woman. She kept her disappointment to herself abd thought and thought until she ar
rived at a conclusion; then she set about to work out her salvation. The husband had grown careless in many little attentions, which mean so much ' to the feminine mind," and heart. He often failed to kiss her when. leaving.' He made no , attempt to cover up his Irritation when she said or did something that was not in accord with his mood. The . wife then saw that all during their love affair he had been restraining himself for fear of losing; her, but now that
She was bis wife, he had unbridled the
more unpleasant characteristics.
During those first six months there
were other things and quarrels dur
ing which they had hardly spoken for
two or three days.
When the wife realized that their
course was leading to the divorce court and a wrecked home, she began her efforts to restore the love In all its beauty. When he came home cross and Irritable she was more pleasant than usual, although sometimes she had to fight back the tears. The more slovenly he became about the house, the more tidy she became. : Her every energy was turned to making herself more attractive and more alluring than during the days of their courtship. Gradually, the effect of his environment and of his wife's cheerfulness
and courage penetrated the thick head Of the husband. He didn't understand at first what was the cause of his desire 'to. make his home more pleasant tor his wife. Then the revelation
came. It did not require the impend
ing' hand of death or a crisis, the truth dawned on him. He realized that to be happy and make his wife happy, they should remain lovers always, each working for the comfort
of the other.
