DUllard Artlce, the colored conIractor from Marion was the successful bidder for the improvement of Larabee street and was awarded the contract for that work by the city council at its regular meeting Tues. night. There were four bidders The colored man was by far the lowest in his price, asking $1452.70 for Ahe improvement of the 1696 feet. The bids and bidders follow: Guy R. Elliott $1569.98 D. S.

Black, the clerk who has been out of town for 2 months was there behind the “Minutes” book. It was pay day for the city officials and that may have prompted them to be present. Or maybe it was the anticipation of some Seminary street action. If the latter was the cause for the full attendance they were fooled for Councilman Donner, who is engineering the Seminary street matter, was non-commit al on the subject. The matter was not even discussed. During the evening a petition to change the name of Water street to "Spring Avenue" was Introduced. The petition was signed by several of the older residents of the town. Following is the resolution: "We the undersigned elttsens do hereby petition your honorable body to change the name of Water street

to that of ‘Spring Avenue.’ “Spring Ave. would conserve the early history of our c’ty bv p«rvetuating the memory of the Public Spring that was so powerful a factor in t.ie enrly days of GreenCastle. The name Water street Is misleading and strangers have the vison o a water front and undesirable wharves. "It is fitting that name be changed before the erection of our new high school building.” By a unaminous vote the resolution was passed. What was "Water Street” now is Spring Avenue.

Many I feel the same way, and the cry “save the trees” is now heard from all the i people on Anderson street except the engineer and the council. Warm times are promised if the trees go. A change of a few inches in the line of the walk will possible bemade to save the trees.

A PICNIC PARTY

SOME TALK OF INJUNCTIONS D . P. U. STUDENT INJURED

Anderson street is in a tumult and the city engineer is having his share of troubles. The rest of the troubles are borne by the property owners along that street. The new cement walks are going down, and on the north side of the street, near Locust street, are going down some fourteen inches on the lawns that were supposed to belong to the property owners. No One can see why this is so for the street is wide enough for all purposes, and so straight that even an intoxicated man, if such were on Anderson street, could follow it. But the city engineer, becauseof love for more air or straight lines, or some other cogent reason, is widening the street. He Is talking of a foot of good green lawn, and Incidentally some Wg trees that have taken thirty years to grow, and the roots of others. The people don't Care for the green lawn, but are hot about the trees. T. T. Moore declares that in his opinion that the city haa no right to the lawn, but are welcome to It If they want It. But he bas two fine maple trees that are

John C. Emison who was a student In the University here for the past year and who is a Phi Psi, was terribly injured at Vincennes, his home town Tuesday morning. Mr. Emison was showing a party of ladles about the town, in an auto and in the course of the drive, took them through the cemetery. Just at the gate the engine "went dead” and Emison got out of the machine to Investigate the trouble. The high gear was on and in attempting to crank the machine he started It up. It caught him against the large Iron i post at the gateway and crushed him • horribly. It is thought that he is ' injured Internally, and will die.

A jolly picnic party composed of the members of the S. C. C. Club went out on the InterurbcfTi Tuesday to stop 34. The shower which came up just afternoon threatened to dampen the picnicers, and their pleasure, but a farm-house porch gave shelter and here the S. C. C.’s spread their dinner and enjoyed it Immensely. After the shower had passed the orginal plan for the afternoon was carried out and the outing proved a most delightful one. After an after" noon spent In the woods the crowd came in on the 8:15 car. Those who went were: Mrs. Anna Stoner, Mrs. Ernest Browning, Misses Mary Albaugh, Hannah and Mary Curran, Nellie Gardner, Susie and Ijella Talbott, Frances Walker, Bertha and Hermlnia Elteljorg, Margaret Kreis !l ' Melda Werneke, Florence Mlsse, Mb# Johnson, and Miss Freeland.
