TODAY’S BIBEE THOUGHT And when the blood of the martyr Steven was shed, I was standing by. Acts 22:20.—Some think that this memory was what Paul had in mind in saying who will deliver me from the body of this death. Others think there was some internal lesion resulting from his beating with rods or stoning.
Roscoe Hardwick tells us that he, Fred Tucker and Walter Nelson, formed the string trio that gave the first broadcast over Greencastle’s radio station WLAX back in the early 1920’s. Thanks for the information, Roscoe.

Jake Hirt has looked at the tree with his field glasses and he doesn’t know.
Some say it is a wild cherry; others are certain it is a soft maple, and still there are those who are sure it is a locust.
We’ve looked at the tree from the window in the dome of the court house and we don’t know for the simple reason that we are not an expert on the various species.
We do believe that it started from a seed dropped by a bird, possibly a pigeon.
And speaking of the court house, did you know that if you don’t take the elevator you have to dlimb 63 steps to reach the fourth floor.
That’s right, 63 steps. We counted them yesterday afternoon.
There are 19 steps from the first floor to the second, in case you are interested: 23 to the third floor, and 21 to the fourth floor.
Incidentally, Judge John H. Allee was on top of the court house Monday morning for the first time in his life.
The Judge said the view of Greencastle and surrounding Putnam county was beautiful.
We all know that U. S. 40 is one of the busier highways in thq, nation, but did you ever stop to figure just how many vehicles use this road.
We have the answer to the house wifes dream. A safe place for her families out of season garments. The beauty of it is— nothing to pay until next fall and complete protection from moths, mildew and theft in our POLARIZED VAULT. HOME LAUNDRY & CLEANERS. 25-tf.
Sunday, during what was actually a lull in traffic, we counted 15 vehicles passing a given point in one minute in Mt. Meridian.
Nine of the vehicles were going east and the other six were travelling west.
Fifteen a minute means 900 vehicles an hour.

Well for that matter, we did see much more passing traffic before and after we made our one minute check.
At times, care and trucks were running two abreast in both directions and for the most part they were going at a fast clip.
We are of the opinion that there should be a definite speed zone established through Mt. Meridian.
We’d say thirty miles and not over forty for a mile each way.
State police have told us that the most dangerous stretch on U. S. 40 in Indiana is east from the bridge over the Monon railroad at Putnamville to Stilesville
