TWENTY-ONE PATIENTS
WERE S( HEDLLED FOR CLINIC
E. R. Bartley formerly incumbent in several important positions connected with Greeneastle one way or another, was also agent and operator for the Big Four at Oakalla in his young manhood, and he is replete with tales of old days among the railroaders who contacted that part of
Putnam.
He tells one story which substantiates the theory that ground hog burrows which perforated the old roadbed of the Big Four in the vicinity of the site of the Frank S. Thomas lake, west of Happy Hollow in the Fern region, were responsible for the collapse of that part of the old roadbed which was used in the dam of t ie Thomas lake. Only Mr. BartUy’s story has it that “muskrats” had dens in the roadbed, instead of
ground hogs.
Mr. Bartley says that in old days the a ction boss who had charge of that stretch of the oTJ road which ran past the site of the present Thomas lake had a terrible time keeping the grade built up. It per-

AT LOCAL THEATERS Previews and Reviews
A man with a serious visage but with sparkling eyes, visiting in the sheriff's office the other day, dispensed, solemnly, a very comforting philosophy of life. He said: “I reckon I’ve got enough hams and shoulders at home to run me until greens begin to come in, and the greens will keep me going until the pawpaws get ripe, and then I can eat com until time to kill my hog next fall, and after that I will have backbones and ribs and sidemeat to run me until the hams and shoulders are ready to eat in the winter, and then the greens will be in again next spring, and so on. I reckon I won’t starve.”
In his speech before the Chamber of Commerce Monday evening, William T. Allen told his audience that not long ago his firm distributed questionnaires among its employes, to get a slant on various phases of the relationship between the firm and the employes, from the latters’

Twentieth Century Club Met With Mrs. Currie The Twentieth Century Club met Thursday afternoon, at the home of Mrs. B J. Currie west Walnut street with twenty-three members present. After a (lengthy business session, Mrs. Shelly reviewed the book “Latin America.” Waving resided in that country a number of years she was! better able to give an excellent review. She brought out that the peo-
pie of Latin America being approached on any subject want time and a chmce to express themselves. In order to cany on commercial advantages with them we must understand their psychology of life and habits. They are emotional people. Physical toil there is laborious and degrading. Communism has developed but little strength. It is a nation that absorbes all people. In closing she stressed this point—"The good-neighbor-policy" has done much to bring about good-will and better cooperation between their country and the United States. During the social hour the hostess served dainty refreshments. •J* »J« •$« ■!« -t* + Delta /.eta Advisory Board, To Meet Tonight The Delta Zeta Alumnae Advirory Board will hold its regular Marcn dinner meeting at the chapter house Friday evening at 6 o’clock.
