In Memory In loving memory of our mother, Lois Steele, who passed away two years ago, March 27, 1965. “I cannot say, and I will not aay That she Is dead—she Is just away! With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand, She has wandered into an unknown land, And left us dreaming how very fair It needs must be, since she lingers there; So think of her faring on, as dear In the love of there as the love of here; Think of her still as the same, I say: She is not dead—she is just away!” Sadly missed by Patty, Bobbie and Wally.

—Fire Station recommends six on duty for adequate fire protection in the area serviced by the local fire company. Fire Chief Balay offers two suggestions that would increase the fire protection efficiency of the force if either one would be adopted. He indicates that the city’s population is migrating eastward, and the east side of the city is growing more rapidly than the west side. For example, according to Balay, “a run to the IBM plant on Road 240 takes seven minutes, and the State Rating Bureau says this is too long.” To remedy this, Balay proposes either a new fire house more centrally located according to population within the city, or keep the present station and build another small house in the east side of town. Fire fighting is now more than just riding a truck to a fire and spraying water. It is a science. With the development of more and refined chemicals, better education in fire-fighting techniques is required but low Salaries discouraged qualified applicants. The basic salary for firemen in Greencastle is $375 per month for 63 hours a week plus being subject to call any time. (The City Council authorized a $25 per month increase last year.) But the low pay coupled with rigid physical requirements discourages young men to seek careers in fire protection. Greencastle is a growing community. All signs indicated continued growth from a fifth class city to a fourth class as classified by the state for sharing tax revenues. When the population reaches 10,000, Greencastle, in effect, will become a fourth class city and will receive increased state revenue. Also, additional responsibilities as a fourth class city must be met in the area of fire prevention. The city now operates under the minimum requirements set forth by state law for a fifth class community and Balay would like for the city to adopt the abbreviated 1965 Fire Prevention Code.

When the fuel you use to cook a complete meal for a family of four comes to you through a gas meter, it registers less than 2 cents worth of gas. Gag to heat an ample supply of 50 gallons of hot water a day tallies about 7 cents. For 30 hours of clothes drying a month, your gas meter wifi register 57 cents worth of gas. The whole business adds up to approximately $4.40 a month — less than 15 cents a day. Mind you, that’s for cooking, water heating and clothes drying. When you heat your home with gas (and 82 out of every 100 of our customers do), you Mt eofer enjoy dm absolute dependability.

Putnam County Man Re-elected REMC Director

Doris Salsman of Rural Route 5, Greencastle, prominent Putnam County farmer was reelected to his second full term as a Director of the Hendricks County REMC, in the election held during the annual Meeting of members of the cooperative, held at Cascade High School last Saturday. In the Board of Hoosiers Enjoy Warm Weather By United Press International Except for a little rain which is hardly worth mentioning, the Easter weekend in Indiana turned out to be much less bleak than forecasters had expected it to be. The warmest weather of the season greeted celebrants, and skies were no worse than partly cloudy over most of the state. The mild weather was somewhat of a surprise for this time of year. Normally, when Blaster falls as early as it did in 1967, temperatures can be a bit on the cool side for wearing new spring finery. But this year was an exception. The mercury Sunday ranged at high points from 69 at South Bend and Lafayette to 75 at Indianapolis. It was almost as warm as it was Saturday when highs included 79 at Louisville, 77 at Indianapolis, 75 at Cincinnati, 73 at Lafayette, 72 at South Bend and 69 at Fort Wayne. The 77-degree top at Indianapolis was the warmest reading since last Sept. 22. Night also was mild with temperatures generally dropping no lower than the 50s. Humphrey On European Trip GENEVA UPI — Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey today began a seven-nation European mission in which he hopes to convince America’s allies to ban the bomb in their countries. The vice president also hoped to reassure various West European governments the United States still has their interest at heart despite its involvement in Vietnam and the fact President Johnson postponed his scheduled trip to the continent. Humphrey will receive two briefings in Geneva before flying on to six European capitals and seven cities including those most directly concerned with the stalemated nuclear nonproliferation treaty. One of the main purposes of Humphrey’s trip is to convince U.S. allies — especially the worried West Germans — that they will not be giving away their rights to explore peaceful uses of nuclear power by supporting the Soviet-American backed treaty banning the spread of nuclear weapons.

Hair Setting Tips NEW YORK (UPI) — Out of setting lotion at hair fixing time? Beauty experts suggest substitutes, including cologne, cellophane tape, or an egg set. For the latter, mix one part egg white to two parts water. Whip it and apply. This adds body to fine hair. For heavier hair, stale beer has proved an Ideal setting agent.

Directors reorganization meeting, held immediately after the annual meeting, Mr. Salsman was unanimously elected to his third year as president of the Board. At the close of the meeting, Mr. Salsman again stated that the Board of Directors and Management would continue an all out effort to maintain the present high standards and low cost electric service, and also work towards even greater economics of operation. In his report to the members, Board President Salsman revealed that just a few days prior to the meeting, Capital Credits refund checks totaling nearly $95,000 were mailed to approximately 3,800 people who were members of Hendricks County REMC in 1952. This is the first time In the history of the REMC that Capital Credits refunds have been made two years in a row. This he said, was possible as a result of more economic operation brought about by action of the Board and with the cooperation of Management and Employes. Other directors elected or reelected to serve three year terms are as follows: Area 6, Elmer Bun ten; Area 7, Roy Parker; Area 8, Harlan Truax; Area 9, Orin Jones. Mr. Salsman represents Area 14. Other officers reelected at the Board reorganization meeting were, Elmer Bunten, Vice President and Paul Blake, Secretary. REMC Manager Wallace Dillon was retained as Treasurer. At the annual meeting of tne Hendricks County REMC, Indiana’s Attorney-General John J. Dillon presented a real challenge in his message to the largest crowd to ever attend the meeting. He said in essence, that REMC members needs for electric service will grow as well as the number of members will continue to grow. This will present new problems to REMC’s in that new sources of low cost financing will need to be found by many of those REMCs In less populated areas. Mr. Dillon also made it very clear that REMCs and Municipal Utilities who are also public owned, should be banding together to present a united front in opposition to this. REMC Marker Wallace Dillon in his report to the members summarized 1966 as the best year Hendricks County REMC has ever had, both from the standpoint of economic operation and minimum number of Outages. He stated that the real credit for this was due the members, since they have been continuing to find more ways to use electricity profitably and due also to the leadership of the Directors and cooperation of the employes.
