Our beautiful city is a railroad center, having lines of three great railroads passing through it, thus giving us roads running in all directions, we have the Monon, which carries elegant parlor cars directly to Chicago northward, and to Louisville southward, and connecting at Louisville with the L. & N. for all points south. The Big Four also passes through the city going in a direct line through Central Illinois to St. Louis, Kansas City and all points west, and eastward to Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Columbus, and New York. Solid vestibule trains are run through to all points east and west. The Vandalia, one of the finest and best equipped roads in the country, runs six passenger trains daily each way through our city. All trains stop at Greencastle. The Vandalia runs the finest vestibule trains through to St. Louis and to New York City without change> of cars. The last named road was recently built in this city a new depot and a new freight house. Its grounds are laid off into most beautiful flower gardens, and comprise one of the most attractive and delightful little parks to be found east or west. Having the three competing lines makes our city one of the best shipping points in the state and furnishes direct markets for all our products, whether from the factory, the farm or
the orchard.
BEAUTY OP THE CITY Strangers visiting our city always greatly admire its neatness, cleanliness and beauty. Our population is but about 6,000, and yet it is safe to say that no city of its size in the west has more public improvements or is more beautiful. Our business blocks are elegant and substantial; most of them three stories high, built of Indiana limestone, and with fine plate glass windows. We have fifteen miles of improved streets, most of them
Historical Society Hears Dr. Shumaker The Putnam County Historical Society met on Wednesday evening at Torr’s Restaurant for a dinner meeting with a large crowd. Mrs. Wm. Boatright, president, opened the session with a poem “Indiana” by Arthur Mapes. Dale McCullough, guardian for Alva and Bertha Doyle, sent several old books for the DePauw archives by Mrs. Margaret Ramsey. The Ten O’clock Line Marker will be erected soon on Road Forty close to the west Putnam County line. For the program Dr. Manhart presented Dr. Arthur Shumaker who gave a very interesting and informative talk on authors from his book “History of Indiana Literature.” Indiana ranks next to New York, which is first, in the number of writers whose books were sold, while New York had four times the population of Indiana in 1947. Several have been made into motion pictures. Sara T. Bolton (Mrs. Nathaniel) was one of the first who wrote poetry. Edward Eggleston and his brother George Carey were novel writers from southeast Indiana also. Dr. Shumaker told of several, but he thinks the most important writers are: Edward Eggleston, William Vaughan Moody and Booth Tarkington. The next Historical Society meeting will be November 30 at Torr's Restaurant
made of crushed stone, covered with gravel, and with stone gutters. The streets are wide and have an abundance of fine shade trees on each side. We have about thirty miles of good brick and stone side-walks. We have hundreds of beautiful and artistic homes, and these are surrounded with fine bluegrass lawns adorned with the finest flowers. Greencastle is a city of roses. We have several fine church buildings; and the buildings of the university are all in the center of the town, save the Observatory. These add much to the attractive appearance of the town. Our streets are lighted with sixty-five arc lights. OUR PEOPLE The greatest adornment or glory of any city or state is an intellectual and moral class of citizens. Greencastle has almost from its first settlement been the seat of by far the largest institution of high education in Indiana, and one of the great universities of our country. Indiana Asbury University, and its successor, DePauw University, is and always has been a Christian institution. The advantages which it has offered have, for more than half a century, attracted to our city a most excellent class of citizens. Our people are cultured and moral, hospitable and generous. Their hearts and homes are always open to welcome to our midst all who wish to become citizens, and their purses are open in aid of every good cause. No city,east or west, has a more refined or cultured class Of people. CAMPUS I CALENDAR Sunday, October SO DePauw Art Center Exhibition through November 23, Edna Tacon One-Man Exhibit of paintings.

Prize Cows BLACKPOOL, England UPI —The National Federation of Business and Professional Women Friday asked Judges who decide damages in accident cases to stop assessing whether a single woman is attractive enough to get married despite her scars. "We feel it’s degrading for a woman to be looked over like a prize cow to see whether or not she is attractive enough to be considered by another man,” said social worker Miss Joan Barash, 43. Day Of Prayer Next Wednesday The Baptist Women’s Day of Prayer will be observed Wednesday from 2 to 3 p.m. The theme will be “Mein Cries—God Answers.” Prayer is the doorway leading into areas of unity, peace and compassion. As Christians, the Baptist women would share this desire with like-minded women around the world. They urge all to take this occasion of prayer as the entry into a realization of our oneness in Christ Jesus. The Baptist women extend an invitation to all who would like to participate in this one-hour worship service.

Experience Teaches Exceptions To Rules By Alfred Sheinwold When you want to give sound advice to a beginner you tell him to play “third-hand high.” You wouldn’t say that to an experienced player because you expect him to pick the right time to break the rule.
South dealer Both sides vulnerable NORTH 4 J 1032 V 107 O Q 5 2 4 J 10 6 3 WEST EAST 497 4 8654 A8652 S? Q94 O 9843 O 1076 474 4 A82 SOUTH 4 akq KJ3 O A K J 4 KQ95 Sooth West North East 3 NT AH Pass Opening lead — ^7 5
West opened the five of hearts, and declarer played low from dummy. East played thirdhand high, putting up the queen of hearts, and that was the end of the defense. South won with the king of hearts, cleared the three top spades out of the way and then led clubs to force out the ace. East returned a heart, but dummy’s ten and South’s J-3 gave him a second heart stopper. The defenders could take their two aces, but declarer easily won the rest, making his contract with two overtricks. THIRD-HAND FINESSE East should defeat the contract by playing the nine of hearts at the first trick. The play of the queen is necessary only if West had led from a suit headed by the ace-king, which is impossible In view of South’s opening bid. If East finesses with the nine of hearts at the first trick.
iiwulii wins with the juclt. East takes the first club trick with the ace and returns the queen of hearts. This play picks up dummy’s ten of hearts and South’s king at the same time. West is able to take four heart tricks, defeating the contract. DAILY QUESTION Partner opens with 2 NT (22 to 24 points), and the next player passes. You hold: S-J 10 3 2; H-10 7; D-Q 5 2; C-J 10 6 3. What do you say? Answer: Bid three clubs, the Stayman Convention. This asks partner to bid a major suit If he can. If partner bids three spades you will raise to four spades. If he bids anything else, you will take him to three notrump.
