Indiana State Fairgrounds. For years the Indiana Department of Conservation has catered to millions of State Fair visitors. It has been necessary to use a building which is in a state of complete dilapidation. Only the valiant efforts of several administrations using corps of workmen, have made the building “seaworthy” to a small degree. The need for a new conservation building long has been seen. Conservationists and Conservation organizations throughout the state most assuredly will eternally be grateful to the State Fair Board for making this much needed state building a reality. Kenneth M. Kunkel, Director of the Conservation Department, fears the new edifice will not be completed in time for the 1950 State Fair. Located across the race track near the Forty-second street gates, the building is to be erected amid a series of winding paths, shrubbery and trees. Around it will be pools for the display of fish, and animal pens for the proper showing of the state’s wildlife. The interior will embrace two auditoriums, artificially lighted acquariums and spacious dormitories for Conservation Officers and others employed during the Fair. A full basement will house fish storage tanks, electric pumps and other devices necessary for operation. Water will be provided from a driven well. Built in the form of a “T” the overall length of the building will be 200 feet not counting a large porch on the south or main entrance end. In width it will be approximately 100 feet plus the added width of a west porch. With the exception of the roof and roof supports the building will be built of Indiana Lime Stone. Laminated wooded arches support the roof, eliminating the need for uprights. Tarazzo flooring is to be

[ used throughout, according to Henry Prange, Conservation Department engineer. Daylight illumination will be supplied by banks of windows in the roof and sides of the display room. SEA LAMPREYS TRAPPED IN INDIANA WATER INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., (Special) — Daily catches of from 100 to 159 large Sea Lampreys are being made in Trail Creek, LaPorte County, by means of recently installed weirs, according to an announcement by the 'Division of Fish and Game, Indiana Department of Conservation. This has been accomplished through cooperation of the IT. S Fish and Wildlife Service with the Conservation Department. The weirs were Installed some time ago in preparation for the annual spawning run of Lamprey up tributaries of the Great Lakes. The Sea Lamprey attaches its vacuum like mouth to the side of a fish at the same time operating its rotar like teeth so as to break through the scales. Then it sucks the blood and body fluids from the victim. A solution with which the Lamprey is supplied prevents the fish blood from coagulating thus robbing the fish of any protection. When its appetite is satisfied the Lamprey drops away. The large Sea Lamprey is not to be confused with the small Lamprey Eel many of which inhabit Indiana streams. The latter .type, of which there are six species, ordinarily do not attach themselves to fish. Os these six, however, there are said to be two which have been known to attack but this is indeed rare. Sea Lampreys have moved into the Great Lakes in great numbers and have wrought much havoc. Commercial fishing has been reduced tremendously and the U. SL Fish and Wildlife Service together with Conservation Departments of many states are fighting its propagation by all known methods. Kenneth M. Kunkel, Director of the Indiana Department of Conservation, believes that the Sea Lamprey is not yet a great menace in Indiana Waters but that the department is overlooking no bets in connection with the elimination of the predator.

FARM CHILDREN HELP CITY YOUNGSTERS INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 31 —Extending the hand of friendship, nearly 7,000 Indiana farm children who are members of the Farm Bureau Pet and Hobby Clubs have contributed brightly printed feed sacks to the Wheeler Mission to be made into pajamas for less fortunate city children attending the Mission camp' this summer. The white sacks will be used for pillow slips and sheets for the camp, which during the season will accommodate 120 boys and girls between the ages of 9 and 15. Additional printed sacks will be made into dresses and other apparel for the girls in the Mission’s Indianapolis program. Nearly 800 sacks have already been received. The Pet and Hobby Clubs were born of a primary need to have the small children entertained or occupied while their parents attend township Farm Bureau meetings. Adult leaders also saw in them an opportuniey to teach the child the proper use of leisure time and at the same time make him feel always a part of the Farm Bureau family membership. The first club was formed in 1940 Today there are 374 active groups with an average membership of 15 to 20 children up to and including ten years of age. One club has an enrollment of 60. Forty-six counties have leaders in addition to the township organizations. Mrs. Paul Flinn of Franklin has been state leader since 1946. The club meetings are held concurrently with the adult Farm ißureau meetings. Some of them have rhythm bands, all are taught to sing together and play together. They are told stories, taught handicraft and the. care and feeding of pets. The clubs participate In the adult programs with special entertainment at three occasions during the year. Older children in the clubs are encouraged to develop hobbies. The groups also take part in county and state fair parades. TEITMITES DO NOT LET TERMITES EAT AWAY YOUR HOME.

Questioning God Lesson for June 4, 1950 HABAKKUK has been called the prophet who dared to ask God questions. If he had not asked these questions he would not have had his answers, so we ought to be thankful for him. If he had meekly "taken it" without (so to speak) talking back to God. he himself might

never have be- i came a prophet and I we might have I missed the truth I which he was en- I abled to see. If I there had been morning papers in I those days, Habak- I kuk would seldom | have read anything good in them.

As for local news, it was all scandal Marders, judges dispensing injustice in the courts, good people having a very hard time of it . . . Abroad, things looked dark. The giant nation of Babylonia was on the march westward, and it did not look as if the nation of Judah had what it would take to stop an invasion. Habakkuk, a deeply sensitive man, could not brush it all off. He could not say, “Oh well, what can yon expect?” or “I see the boys are at It again.” He could not think of what was going on around him as if it were all a story, a murdermystery to be enjoyed in an easy chair. He could not say “It is fate” and let it go at that. He was desperate in his mind about it all. “Under mine eyes outrage and injury go on,” he said (1:3, Moffatt’s translation). He dared to ask the question, Why? Why does God permit such things? • • • God’s Terrible Answer GOD HAD AN ANSWER for Habakkuk, but it did not satisfy him at first; indeed it disturbed him deeply, for the answer looked worse than the original problem. The essence of it was this (Hab. 2:5-11): God had indeed seen the wicked ways of the nation of Judah, and was going to punish the whole country by defeat in war. He was bringing up against them the Babylonians (Chaldeans), an aggressive, fighting, ruthless nation. Sooner or later Babylon and Judah would clash, and then—Smash! • a * The Prophet Still Asks Questions HABAKKUK KNEW very well what the Babylonian armies were like and what they had been doing. But could it be true that God would actually make use of a wicked nation like Babylonia? God was “of purer eyes than to behold evil;" how then could a good God use the cruel violence of godless armies. eVen for a righteous purpose? The Babylonians were not God’s people—they did not worship him or know him. How could God use his enemies to punish his own people? Does God justify the means by the end? Does God do evil that good may come? Habakkuk, in short, was troubled by exactly the same kind of questions that have always arisen when men who believe in a righteous God ponder the meaning of the power of evil. • • • Faith Comes Through HABAKKUK never did get a complete, logical answer to his doubts. What he did get was something more valuable. It was a two-fold answer. First, WATT AND SEE. (2:1-3.) The crushing of Judah by Babylon would not be the last chapter of history. God has yet to settle his account with Babylon, and “God does settle all his accounts in October.” The pther part of the answer is: THE JUST SHALL LIVE BY FAITH. The meaning here (2:4) is that there ate two kinds of life, two types of character, two sorts of men. One is the man of pride and unfaith, the other is the man of faith. Unfaith kills, 'faith makes alive. Unfaith trembles and fills, faith endures. So it is with men and nations. At that time you might have thought, Babylon will survive, Judah has no chance. But in the light of history, we know it was Babylon that perished, Judah that endured. Godlessness may have terrible power, but since it is godlessness, it has no final power against the real God. So Habakkuk who began by asking questions, came out into glorious faith. The great poem with which his book closes is a bold confession of faith. No longer complaining, he cries out, “The Lord God is my strength!” (Copyright by the International council of Religious Education on behalf of 40 Protestant denominations. Released by WNU Features.) Marjorie Mi. Lyon, of route 1, Syracuse, defendant in a divorce action brought in circuit court by Lloyd M. Lyons, has filed a cross complaint asking custody of a daughter, Patricia Ann Lyon, aged one year, a support allowance of sils a week and attorney’s fees. Mrs. Lyons alleges cruel and inhuman treatment. They ma r - ried July 25, 19-48, and separated April 29', 1950. At her request hearing has been set for 9:30 a. m., June 8 on her application for suit and support money.

FARMERS GET MILLIONS OF SHRUBS FROM STATE INIDIANAPOLIS. Ind. — The Indiana Department of Conservation, through cooperation of the Pittman-Robertson Wildlife Restoration Program has completed shipment to Indiana landowners 3.75 million Multiflora Rose or enough of the Asiatic shrubs to plant a straight line extending from Indianapolis to Philadelphia. An average of 53 bird nests per mile soon will be found in this living fence. This figure mutiplied by 700, or the approximate mileage Involved between Indianapolis and Philadelphia, will reveal that the housing shortage for our wildlife will be decreased greatly by these plantings. Also in the winter splendid food sources will be provided. An excellent cover for wildlife, it also is helpful in erosion control, contour tillage and for stopping pasture gullies. Also mfiltiflora helps control weeds and by harboring bird life hordes of destructive insects are elmininated. The shrub has an ornimental foliage and is well suited to line, contour and irregular fencing. Investigation has revealed that fencing planted twentyfive years ago still is strong and vigorous. Individuals familiar with Multiflora are most enthusiastic in regard to it because the natural fence requires no clipping, pruning, training or support. It also serves as an effective windbreak thereby reducing wind damage. Plantings made this spring would be cultivated where possible to prevent inroads of weeds among the new and tender shrubs. They should be mulched heavily this fall with straw, old hay, or sawdust. The second year requires no cultivation. More seedlings will again be available this fall and again next spring according to attaches of the Pittman-Robertson Project. They are free to farmers who write to the Department of Conservation or Pittman-Robertson 6D, 311 West Washington Street, Indianapolis 9. SPECIAL AUTO TAXES TO REACH ALL-TIME HIGH OF s7l PER VEHICLE Indianapolis, Ind. — The average Indiana motor vehicle owner will pay the highest tax bill in history during 1950. That was the indication in a preliminary estimate released today by Todd Stoops, SecretaryManager, of the Hoosier Motor Club, who pointed out that the tax burden this year will average s7l for each motor vehicle registered in the state. “With such heavy taxes on their motor vehicle operation, there is little wonder that the motorists have been called the heaviestta£xed group in the state,” Mr. Stoops said. “In addition to the average s7l special tax burden, motor vehicle owners pay all the other levies imposed on other citizens.” Mr. Stoops pointed out that the per vehicle tax burden of s7l will mark an increase of 44 per cent over 1,940 . “The 44 per cent in motor vehicle imposts during the past ten years clearly shows the tremendous tax burden being placed on the vehicle owners of our state,” he continued. “Let us hope this motor vehicle tax inflation will be halted. The motor vehicle owners, of our state certainly could use some relief from the heavy tax burden they now pay.” FOR SALE: Adding machine paper.—at The Journal office.
