Our nomination for most relaxed was John Kroh, who has hitherto been chairman of these dances. Our nomination for typical couple enjoying a night on the town was Jack and Helen Alfrey. And our nomination for late comers would have to be Dick Miller and Fred Elstrod with beautifully bedecked spouses Jean and Emily. The big rush for new 1965 license

plaies at the Syracuse license bureau has been something. Max Ganshorn, husband of branch manager Mary, and Jake Bitner, husband of assistant Pat, have been pressed into duty handing out plates. A little noted fact is the removal of downtown parking meters from the Main street alley at Syracuse hardware to Church of the Brethren. As other downtown meters needed repairing, these have been pressed into use. According to town board president Byron Connolly, a downtown businessman who has never been too hot on the meters in the first place, there are too many meters in Syracuse as it is.

Bank Building > And Equipment * Owned ... is the investment in cur own bank buildings and equipment conservatively valued.

In past year dr so Syracuse police have taken a “hands off” policy on strict policing of meters, in order not to discourage traffic in downtown area. Right now the exodus is to Florida, and they seem to be going in droves. Leila Connolly, the NIPSCO irl. is planning a trip to North' Carolina and Florida, taking her golf chibs and bowling ball along. Mary and Bert Evans of Kale Island %re home, bringing their Florida gpest of tiie past month. Dee Noel, with them.

Ray Yoder is just itching to return to Acapulco, Mexico, where he made , two trips last winter. He plans to make trip this year with prominent Milford businessman, but hasn’t set departure date as yet. If you want to see something real interesting, ask Byron Connolly to show you the old Syracuse photos he has in his downtown store. One is reportedly the oldest photo of Syracuse in existence. The death last week of W. W. Pauli, former publisher of the Syra- | cuse-Wawasee Journal forerunner of The Mail-Journal, revived coffee cup conversations of the time he was chairman of the Syracuse Republi- ; can party’ and of the town’s Inde- ! pendent-Republican party. A controversial figure, several recalled his inear-seditious remarks made before local dubs. ■ Rumors made the round this week that a new grocery store | will be built in the Village across road 15 from Country Corner Gift Shop. 36th Meeting Os Past Masters'.

Mrs. Hugh I Neer and Mrs. Warren Zellner, exII pect an increase in the number of I tuberculosis tests to be given this I ’ year because of the regulation that ; ail food handers must show proof of la negative chest X-ray for those over 118 and a neagtive tuberculosis test ’ for those under 18.
