THE MAIL-JOURNAL —Wed., Oct. 27, 1971

AROUND Biß The editor of a small town weekly was severely criticized because of an error appearing in ‘ his paper, and in the next issue had this to say about it: “Yes. we know there were some errors in last week’s paper. We will further agree that there were some errors in the issue of the' week before, but before bawling us out 100 unmercifully about it, we want to call your attention to these facts: In an ordinary newspaper column, there are 10,000 letters, and there are seven possible wrong positions for each letter, making 70,000 chances to make errors and several million chances for transposition. There are 48 columns in this paper, so you can readily see the chances for mistakes. Did you know that in the sentence, ’To be or not to be,’ by transposition alone. 2.750.022 errors can be made? Now aren’t you sorry you got mad about that little mistake last week?'* Charlotte Kell, owner-operator of the Wawasee Airport, has accepted a federal appointment to the Women’s Advisory Committee on Aviation, for a 3-year term. The group meets twice a year, spring and fall, her first meeting in Washington, D.C., Nov. 20-30 and Dec. 1. Her appointment comes from John H Schaffer, administrator of the department of transportation, Federal Aviation Administration. Charlotte was pleasantly surprised by the federal recognition —a real great honor for one of our own. Saturday promises to be a busy time in the "Old Town" with that day designated as the only trick or treat mght and a party planned for the youth by area businessmen aud B.P.W. ladies. Margaret (Mrs. Leonard) Nichols, secretary and Gal Friday for Martin Levemier for over 30 years, is leaving her position at his place of business to assist hubby with his business. Seems this time of the year might be a little cold for a dip in the river but an informer tells of a number doing so in Pine River, in Michigan, (accidentally, of course! including several of the female gender. How about that, Carol? Nice to have a doctor about in case of the sniffles. An attempt was made to take some pictures but seems the camera also got a little wet. The Cal Knapp family, formerly of the Syracuse community and now of Angola, have this week, extended an invitation to all Syracuse friends to a grand opening at their furniture store near Angola this coming week end. With students having a day from school Monday in observance of Veterans* Day, four young lads were seen fishing at the South Huntington street bridge near the scout cabin at 7 a.m. ' Seems more than one person spotted deer in the area this past week per an unsigned note in the mail: ’Shades of the Miamis and Pottowatomies —a young deer swam about a mile across Wawasee lake late afternoon on Thursday. Oct. 21. not 1871, but I*7l. Several residents on shore north of the north edge of South Shore Golf course saw the deer swimming, just the head above water, and hailed a passing speed boat to alert occupants of the situation and possibly to escort the deer in to shore. The boat, with its two occupants. followed discreetly

behind the rhythmically swimming deer (that deer never missed a swimming beat) and when reaching shore, the little doe gave one lovely leap over the sea wall, flying up the bank bounded across state road 13 back of one car and in front of another and was last seen with head high and feet flying across the north edge of the golf course and to the shelter of, we’re sure, the beloved woods.* Unusual for this time of the year? Amy Baldwin of Fascination Place reports violets blooming in a vast area around a tree at tiie Baldwin residence in Enchanted Hills. Legion Auxiliary members, known for their good are sponsoring a chicken fry at the scout cabin on November 6. A note from an unsigned subscriber this past week, inquired as to why we have not run an article in our newspaper lately regarding the work accomplished by the Methodist Thrift Shop in Syracuse. After nine years of business, we feel this venture originating with Mrs. Clifton Kinder as its first chairman, is well known having accumulated over >35.000 in sales and all workers are on a volunteer basis. Proceeds are used for various church furnishings and needs. Nicolai Machine & Repair Shop, 701 So. Main, Syracuse, a longtime business in Syracuse, will be fazing out and closed down. The equipment will be sold. Walter (“Gil") Gilbert, employee at Nicolai's for many years (Harry always said "he runs the place), will be looking for another job. This shouldn’t be a difficult assignment for such an expert machinist. 7 Dorothy Austin is the new clerk at town haU. A former South Bend resident, she has lived in Syracuse for the past five years. She replaces Susie Runge. Noble C. Blocker, the inveterate campaigner, is running hard for the Syracuse town board, and having a lot of fun doing it. On Monday he said he had called at every home in the town limits, either talked personally or left a card in places where no one was at home, except 12 homes. "But I’ll get to them before the election," he said. Blocker ran for state senator in 1956, and was so ambitious he even campaigned unknowingly in Wabash county. He was defeated but successfully ran for county auditor four years later, and served one 4-year term in that office. A real hats off to Max Ellen Smith and the WHS senior class play cast for an excellent performance of Thornton Wilder’s "Our Town,” at the school auditorium on Saturday night. It was a joy to watch, and such fine acting - WOW!

Fall mushroom hunters will admit to finding many types and in many places but top this one — Waco Drive residents, the Mark Wagners, found a mushroom Saturday morning in the drive of their home, right through the blacktop. Sunday morning, lo and behold, another mushroom through the blacktop. Described as a sponge type mushroom, the cap is gredn in color and slimy to the the touch. UNlCEF—(Continued From Page 1) completed, and the continuing need for UNICEF’s help was questioned. The United Nations then took a realistic look at the conditions under which the hundreds of millions of children in the developing countries lived. It was decided that the agency that had been able to meet the challenge of a desperate emergency situation could do an even better job, given time, of coping with the problems children who are malnourished, undereducated (if at all), and lacking even the most primitive medical care. Thus, another step forward, and the nations of the world jointly accepted the responsibility for the future of their young, not only in the aftermath of war but during "normal” times as well. UNICEF was called upon to play a new and important role in the development of mankind, and since it was no longer simply an emergency relief agency, it adopted the name United Nations Children’s Fund, retaining the familiar acronym UNICEF. The years that followed were years of challenge and change. New needs became apparent and were accepted in the agency’s long-range program planning. UNICEF began to work in the fields of nutrition, basic health, disease control, education, and family and child welfare, as well / as the provision of relief aid in emergencies that arose through the years. In 1971 UNICEF’s 25th Anniversary Year, the Children’s Fund looks beyond the limitations of its present budget and sees an enormous task ahead. Today perhaps one child out of ten in the developing countries is being reached by UNICEF-aided programs. For tomorrow, UNICEF’s motto is “A Future For Every Child.” Barefoot Taken Into Custody Sunday At Syracuse Lowell Barefoot of Syracuse was taken into custody by Syracuse officers Sunday on a warrant issued for his arrest for unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, and placed under $3,500 bond. Barefoot is to appear in city judge Robert Burner’s court at Warsaw to answer charges. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Homan observed their wedding anniversary on October 22. Mrs. Homan is the former Genevieve Stiffler. They were married in Etna Green by Rev. Elwood Dunn, pastor of the Milford Christian church.

Konkle Backs 'One Stop' License Branch State Police Superintendent Robert K. Konkle has announced he will seek public and legislative support to establish “one stop” State government facilities in every Hoosier community where there is now an auto license branch. Motorists, he said, would have their vehicles inspected, purchase license plates, take their driving examination and buy a drivers license at such facilities. They would also be able to conduct other business pertaining to vehicle registrations and title transfers, he added. Konkle proposed that the facilities be built by private firms which, in turn, would lease them back to the State until such time construction costs are met and the buildings revert to State ownership. The buildings would also house offices of other State agencies such as the State Board of Health, Department of Internal Revenue, etc. Rental fees now paid by these agencies could

also be applied to the leasepurchase plan, he said. It has been nearly impossible, Konkle explained, for a force of 25 State troopers to adequately check the activities of 3,880 inspection stations and 14,000 licensed mechanics. “We would be better off,” he said, “to let the State operate the inspection, stations with merit personnel and charge one fee to cover the inspection, excise tax and license plate costs.” He assured the continued ope&tion of private inspection stations to repair defective vehicles as required by law.

Because there are only 186 license branches Statewide, the superintendent suggested that a staggered system of licensing dates would have to be established. In a unified facility, he pointed out, citizens would no longer be faced with costly and inconvenient delays waiting in line or traveling to several different points to conduct required governmental business. "We are overdue in our efforts to streamline citizen services,” Konkle stated. “The speedy and efficient transaction of official business between the taxpayer and his government will be of benefit to both." Miss Trella Caris Observes 86th Birthday Sunday Miss Trella Caris observed her 86th birthday on Sunday, Oct. 23, by having dinner with her brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Martin, in a Nappanee restaurant. In the afternoon a number of visitors were received in her home, where cake baked by Mrs. Otto Wiggs, was served. Among her visitors was Milo Maloy of Goshen, who was a pupil of Miss Caris when she taught school at the Maloy school east of Milford. Miss Caris was remembered with several nice gifts. Carefree Mothers Meet Recently The Lakeland area Carefree Mothers club held its monthly meeting at a Syracuse restaurant on Wednesday, Oct. 20. Mrs. Don Schlabach was in charge of arrangements. A Halloween theme was carried out with pumpkin favors and centerpiece. After a delicious dinner, the meeting was brought to order with Mrs. Ron Cope, president, presiding. The member of the year received an engraved heart for that honor. Doot prizes were won by Mrs. Tom Holderread and Mrs. Max G. Evans. The November meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Max Evans.
