V' — By Harold Hanawi

AWFULLY DRY — April was a dry month in Harrison County, ’Jim Brengman of the Corydon Water Co., keeps a tally sheet on rainfall and it showed only four light showers totalling 1.22 inches during the month. “It didn’t rain enough to drown a cricket,” Brengman told The Corydon Republican. EVERYBODY PAYS — It is ex- ; pensive to build and maintain •Federal Highways. That is why trucks paid $45 million in Federal Use Taxes in 1960. A good portion of this amount — $2,338,000 in fact —came from Indiana truck owners. PILES UP MILEAGE — The 13th juror in a lengthy murder trial in the Randolph Circuit Court figures he covered a lot of miles in the course of the trial. The juror, Russell McCord, a Greensfork Township farmer, was selected to serve in case of the illness or absence of one of the 12 regular jurors. He was given a chair outside the jury box and to reach dt he had to walk across the court room, around the judge’s bench and behind the clerk’s desk. The chair was in a far corner of the court room. McCord says he i made the trip 104 times coining , and going and in the process walked just a bit short of three .miles. BEDSIDE PROMOTION —When -Walter H. Holdridge, an army officer at Fort Benjamin Harrison, received notice recently of his promotion to the rank of colonel, he rwas in the post hospital convalescing from an illness but he lost no {time on donning the silver eagles, 'insignia of his new rank. While i propped up in bed the eagles »were pinned to the lapels of his ipajamas by his wife and a fellow (Officer, Col. A. L. Ransone. BADLY NEEDED — The editor of The North Vernon Sun, Richard Mayer, Jr., makes this observation: “At this time of year, as we see it, the most pressing needs of mankind are, in order: grass that will cut itself, storm windows that can be taken down by merely pressing a button, a driver that : won’t slice and a nose that won’t ' sunburn.” 1

A Flavory Savory Dish For spring Supper

■ f ' W I . ■ a- 1

Because these ham rolls are easy to make, don’t get the notion that flavor has been skimped. Far from it. The roll-ups fairly burst with the good honest zest of apple and ham and. onion and sharp seasonings. They’re particularly good served with candied sweet potatoes and peas. Ham Rolls with Apple-Onion Stuffing 1 cup chopped onion 6 slices boiled ham cup butter % cup ketchup 2 cups canned apple sauce 1 tablespoon prepared mustard 1% cups soft bread crumbs 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Few grains salt sauce 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning Saute onion in butter until golden brown; add 1 cup apple sauce, bread crumbs, salt and poultry seasoning. Spread an equal amount of apple sauce mixture on each ham slice. Roll up jellyroll fashion; fasten with string or toothpicks. Lay ham rolls side by side in baking dish. Combine remaining apple sauce (1 cup) with ketchup, prepared mustard and Worcestershire sauce; mix well. Pour over rolls; bake in moderately hot oven, 375 degrees, 20-25 minutes, or until thoroughly. fTTvings. /

i PEEVISH — A Steuben County . Deputy Sheriff, Charles Oberlin, i has a pet peeve. It is motorists i who fail to dim their bright lights • when approaching other cars. So,, i while patrolling U.S. 20 near Ani gola, he halted a car which ap- . proached with blinding lights. He intended, he said, to give the dri a warning ticket but! when one of two male passengers: in the car hopped out and ran into i a woods, the deputy became sus-i picious. Investigation developed! that the car had been stolen in Chicago. The man who ran was captured later in a nearby woods. Federal charges of transporting a stolen car across a state line were! placed against two of the men. The third was charged with Dub-, lie intoxication. BUYER BEWARE — A Corydon! resident placed this candid ad in| The Corydon Democrat: “For Sale —Used power mower in terrible, condition. Make an offer.” CARAT CROP — A Warrick County woman, Miss Lana McCool, looking over her freshly plowed garden, sighted a sparkling: object She plucked it from the ground and it proved to be a diamond ring she lost in 1934. The. diamond, weighing nearly a carat, was set in a white gold mounting.: A Boonville jeweler who cleaned the ring said it suffered no damaging effects from its long years, in the ground. Miss McCool told The Boonville Standard she hadn’t, seen the ring since she placed it in an apron pocket while washing, dishes 28 years ago. ARTIST’S START — A Monroe! County man, Robert E. Judah of Ellettsville, now an artist-drafts-man with Indiana University’s Geological Survey, recently told The Ellettsville Journal how he: got started as an artist “I used! to draw on my mother’s windows, while she was washing them with) Bon Ami,” Judah said. At one time he had ambitions to be a stone carver and he studied sculpture: at the Kansas City Art Institute but eventually he turned to oil painting. He is now working on & display which depicts the geology ical history of Indiana. 4

DRIBS . . . And . . . Drabs Saturday looked like fair days n Syracuse, with so many people roaming around, and the merchants report trade increasing by eaps and bounds. Our regular summer residents are returning, and it’s a joy to see the houses and yards being spruced up and beautified. There is one small item, however. Anyone who runs a power mower before noon on Sunday should have to shave with it—women included. Susie Tytler had a flare-up with her eye infection, called iritis, but it isn’t quite so painful as before. Her husband is back at work, but taking things a little easier since his long siege of illness. Susie has a lot of what is uncommonly called “intestinal fortitude,” tho. Another Susie — Brouwer this time — had her three darling daughters in Klink’s, and I caught one trying to poke a hole in a package of cookies. She gave me an enchanting grin, then ran around the comer back to papa Jay. Dean Grady is a charming man. Since he, also, is a numismatist (aren’t we all?) he saved two special coins for friends of his wife. Need I tell you that I’m one? Dick Jones said that since the world is getting smaller, why are postal rates getting higher? Incidentally, in Albany, N. Y., city treasurer Collins Thomas reported that a water bill for the post office was returned three times with the envelope marked “Address Unknown!” One of the sadder facts of life is that it’s quite possible to lend a hand and borrow trouble at the same time. Dot Stiver was on “all fours,” weeding her flower bed. Their yard is lovely, showing the hours of hard work put in on it. North Shore Drive, where they live, is a beautiful drive if you are taking guests on a sight-seeing trip. The fingers of your thoughts are molding your face ceaselessly. That’s all this week, folks. — D. D. (Held From Last Week) The old “saw” about Indiana weather certainly is holding true — you know, “If you don’t like the weather, just wait a few minutes and it will change.” It was a heart-breaking catastrophy to the Nordmans when the lightning destroyed their home on Lake Papakeechie. Coming from a large city, where neighbors are strangers, I am constantly mazed at the goodness and kindness of this community. They rally around the unfortunates, bringing food, clothing and bedding, offering to share their homes and pocketbooks with an unselfishness which restores one’s faith in humanity. It makes one proud and grateful to be a part of such a community, doesn’t it Lois Schleeter, at the State Bank of Syracuse, is a helpful little gal. She sometimes gives you a rubber band with your cash, so it will “stretch a little further.” That was quite a “blast” at the Wawasee Golf Club last Thursday nite. A free (to members) buffet dinner of the most delicious food you ever put under your belt! Don Byrd and Chuck Todd were all decked out in their Sunday best, dispensing hospitality and sunshine to one and all. Pat Todd, Chuck’s daughter-in-law, was a — and a mighty pretty one'a.t that. were playing near to the water’s edge on the south shore of Wawasee, and I held my breath as they pushed and wrestled each other. Wriggly boys who held infinity in their hands, divinity in their hearts, and worms in their pockets. Charlie Harris was seen driving a slow 30 mph on his way back from North Webster, for no apparent reason. I think that a good slogan for his Wawasee Village Hardware store would be “Tools Paradise.” A great deal of laughter was heard coming from one table out at the Cove Friday night. Which reminds me that “He who laughs last probably intended to tell the story himself.” ATTEND INDIANA U. COMMENCEMENT ON MONDAY < Mr. and Mrs. Theo Beer, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Hoerr and son, Mr. ancL-Mrs. Lewis Speicher, Mr. and Mrs. Philip Beer, Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Doll and Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Beer, all of Milford; Mrs. Bill Best of Nappanee; and Mr. and Mrs. Carl Fiechter of Bluffton attended the graduation exercises of the Indiana university medical school Monday in Bloomington.

ENTERS HORSE IN SHOW AT COLUMBUS, IND. Caroline Bonham of Syracuse, riding her own Kimberton Fox at the week end horse show at Columbus, Ind., won two jumping classes and placed fourth in the state. She won the “knock down and out” and open jump, in the ISHA spring horse show.

I WANT I I AM I

KILLS ODOR AND BACTERIA IN AIR ? i. • I ■ 1 !. fIHHK.. . GB The device being held by this attractive girl will make all of 1 our lives more enjoyable in the near future. It is a Yorkaire Purifier, which destroys both odor and bacteria in the air. Madej up of hundreds of pellets of buffered potassium permanganate, the I unit will someday replace the conventional filter in most types of air conditioning.

A new development in air purification which will not only Kill all .known odors almost instantaneously but will also destroy most classified species of bacteria in the air, has been developed jointly by the York Division and the Roy C. Ingersoll Research Center of the Borg-Warner Corporation. The new development, which eventually is expected to replace the filter systems in all forms of air conditioners, promises persons living or working in air conditioned homes and offices the cleanest, most odor-free air scientists have ever been able to process. York President, Joseph B. Elliott revealed that the Yorkaire purifier will be available in some commercial air conditioning units produced by the company by the end of the year. It will be optional equipment for year-round residential air conditioning and heating units next year and will be marketed for many other applications not related to refrigerated air con"ditioning. “Developments such as this are in the finest traditions of American science,” he said, “in that they not only produce more pleasant everyday living conditions for great masses of people but also contribute

toward a healthier The new air purifier consists of a multiple layer of many, hundreds of small pellets impregnated with a buffered solu- , tion of potassium permanga- ’ nate. Encased in a finely woven mesh of fiberglass, the pellets are activated to have a tremendous number of tiny pores. The buffered permanganate solution is available on the surface and as air comes in contact with it, the various materials that produce odors are oxidized out of I the air and captured. Ten per -cent of all airborne bacteria are killed during each pass of air through the purifier and with about six passes every ’ hour, practically all bacteria in the room Will be removed/from the air. The purifier also inhibits mold growth on its own structure. Most commercial products in use in homes today mask odors, but do not destroy them. An exception is activated carbon ! which has no effect on bacteria j but which does absorb odors. However, the carbon’s ability to do this depends on temperature — and an unexpected temperature rise will cause it to give off odors it previously absorbed. The new purifier, with its permanganate pellets, does not do this. -—-
