CHIT-CHAT OF TIMES PAST In ’older countries, homesteads pass from one generation of a family to another for centuries. A place once established there with vines and trees, herbs and flowers, garden and wood lot. flagstones, well, and all the other things around which cling the memories and associations of present and past generations, pass from father to eldest son. Certainly the spirit of past generations must dwell In those old homes to bless the successors who marry, give birth, and die after a round of daily toil through the years. How different here! In this country there is a spirit of unrest. apparently no sentiment for, and clinging to. the environment of youth. A home is a temporary' shelter to be sold or remodeled after a comparative few years of occupancy. Always there is something better ahead, and beyond. In a sense this may mean progress. In another sense it maymean superficial concern with, things and possessions, that must in a few years be auctioned to the highest bidder in a crowd that comes pawing over personal things that carry almost sacred memories. Maybe It is time we try to fee free from the tyranny of things, enjoy the simple pleasures of daily living, and try' to be content. The restless spirit of the past is illustrated by the migratory character of our houses. Witness the following game of pussywan ts-a-corner played by our houses through the years past. The Kolley residence now owned by J. H Henderson, west of the Dunkard church was formerlyowned and occupied by Elhanan Miles,town blacksmith, and stood on the lot now occupied by the McClintic residence on Huntington St. The Si Bauer residence west of the bridge on Main St. .formerly stood on the lot now occupied by the public library. Two occupants of past years were Dr. A. R. Collar, and family and later the family of Mrs. Stiffler, grandmother of Chester and Orland. The Reinbold residence on West Main St. formerly stood on the lot now occupied by Wegmiller’s. ’Foster’s and Grieger’s stores. (Three business lots were cut from one residence lot.) The Lois Schleeter residence on Huntington St. formerly occupied the lot where the theatre and cocktail lounge now stands. The J. W. Rothenberger residence was formerly on the lot where Mrs. B. F.

ASKS TRANSFER The U. S. Fidelity & Guaranty Co., of Baltimore, Md.. one of the defendants in a circuit court action in which Lena L. Ketering. Syracuse grocer, seeks judgment for 84,060.31, Thursday asked that the case be transferred to the federal district court at South Bend. Other defendants include Robert Howard, former manager of the Ketering grocery, whom the plaintiff alleges failed to keep proper records and whose accounts. she contends, were short when he was discharged as manager; and G. Laucks and George L. Xanders, attorneys employed by Mr*. Ketering, whose advice regarding Howard’s conduct of the business and regarding proper bonding of the manager she blames for part of her losses. She sets out that the bonding company. the U. S.
