commit voluntary manslaughter. The affidavit was signed by Sheriff Henderson. Freeze posted ssoo> bond upon his arrest and is free pending arraignment. The charge resulted froni an argument at Shock lake last Tuesday, in which Millard Eppert, 29, who lives on Shock lake, located near North Webster, sustained a severe stab wound across his chest. Sheriff Henderson and State Trooper Wallace Manrow said that Eppert was stabbed with a sharp pocket knife handled by Freeze. Eppert was taken to the McDonald hospital and dismissed the next day after receiving treatment for the wound, which was several inches in length across his chest. Freeze told officers that he used the knife after Eppert, a much larger man, had “jumped him and struck him a few blows during a quarrel over the rental of a cottage.

Easy Roberts mowed his lawn early last Saturday. Then he sat on the porch, and watched Handy Peterson cutting his grass. The Roberts’ property and the Peterson’s border each other — with no hedge or fence between them. So, when Easy notices Handy had left about a four-foot strip unmowed along the boundary, he walks over and asks why. “That’s your land,” says Handy. “Mine ends here. See, it lines up with that oak tree across the road!” Easy didn’t think so, so they went up and down looking for

ADVICE FOR MOTORISTS The advice which the Chicago Motor Club gives regarding overinflated tires is the easiest to follow: let them alone. Car owners in the midst of a summer tour are often in doubt about the correct care of tires which pick up pressure from incessant poundings on a sunbaked highway. Just let them be, says the motor club. They may pick up from two to eight pounds in air pressure during the course of a day’s summer driving but this will be lost as the automobile stands overnight in cool temperatures. Drivers who check the tires every time they stop for gas are running a. risk, according to the motoring organization. The tire gauges at different service stations may vary as much as five pounds. Ideally, a motorist should carry his own gauge, testing it periodically for accuracy. Those who don’t are advised to check air pressure once a day, in the morning when the tires are cool. The proper inflation of tires under normal conditions is important but it is dependent upon the make of the tire, its size and the weight it must carry. Motorists should consult their local dealer about correct air pressure for their tires. Another headache for summer drivers is overheated radiators. Most radiators ‘heat up’ because motorists fail to keep them filled with water. In others, however, rust from the engine interior permeates the water and causes the radiator pipes to clok. the water then backs up and is lost through the overflow outlet just beneath the radiator cap. STATE FAIR EVENTS OPEN TO 4-H MEMBERS Indianapolis, Ind., July 14 — Four hundred and eighteen events with cash premiums amounting to $21,301.70, are open to 4-H club members during the first three days of the 1950 Indiana State Fair beginning Aug. 31. Dean Harry J. Reed of Purdue University, ex-officio member of the Indiana State Fair oßard in charge of 4-H activities, announced the complete premium list today. In keeping with increased interest displayed in 4-H Club work, the total represents an increase of $896 over a year ago. Plans for special entertainment at the annual Boy Scout Jamboree on the first night of the Fair also have been completed. This program will be presented without charge in front of the huge grandstand by the Sahara Grotto with several dog and pony acts on stage as special attractions. Judging of 4-H livestock entries will spread evenly over the first three days of the Fair and the 4-H home economics exhibit in the Youth Auditorium will be open to the public daily from 8 A. <M., until 9 P. M. (CST). Youth activities will reach a climax Sept. 2 at 2 P. Ml, 92 girls, representing each county in Indiana, participate in the annual 4-H state dress revue in the Coliseum. Miss May Masten and Miss Edna Troth, both of Purdue University, are the 4-H leaders in charge of the dress revue and home economics exhibits.

Right in the middle of their “no man’s land I” Well, they both grin, and take turns finishing the job and then retreat to Easy’s for a friendly glass of beer together. From where I sit, a little searching around for the truth of the matter often shows that the other fellow is as much right as you are—at which point the whole thing doesn’t seem as important anyway.
