get into the act of auto manufacturing." Name of the North Websterbuilt car: Ruth. J. Homer Shoop showed a real sense of humor last week when ‘the paper* came out with an article concerning a discussion he had with Mrs. Earl Himes about the moving of the Himes home from uptown North Webster. “Oh, for the lack of a comma,” thought The M-J publisher when the big boo-boo was called to his attention. Kent Hare, of Galloway’s Grocery, looked up into the sky and saw a flock of about 75 Canadian geese flying in Vformation southward. “That’s a real sign of winter,** he said, and went on to tell his audience of two about the habits of wild geese. A real naturalist, this Kent. Week end rains did not dampen spirits of the Enchanted Hills and Fascination Place residents for their annual wiener roast on Saturday. Reports were that lots of hot dogs were eaten and much fun was had.

Syracuse looked like a farming town Sunday following a fun hayride by local couples Saturday night. Several more hayrides are set for this week end. Winds Monday helped to dry the straw strewn about and whip it around. A report came to this office Monday from a very disturbed female regarding a summer home broken into at Enchanted Hills last week. Seems a shotgun blast, plus a big log, were used to break down or through the back door to gain entry, and lights were on in the home. How fortunate the owners were not at home when a blast from a shotgun ripped through into surroundings. Youths of Saint Andrew’s and Calvery United Methodist churches will be participating in a UNICEF trick or treat event this Sunday evening from 5 to 7. Halloween activities are being planned for youth of the community with the annual P.T.O. carnival set for Saturday night at the Syracuse school and the Business and Professional Women’s club sponsoring a Tuesday night event scheduled to end at the city park for a marshmallow roast. Approximately 100 geese, in two separate groups, were seen last Wednesday over Wawasee, winging their way southward. They were a beautiful and graceful sight.

Why not stop in The MailJournal office today and select a name for a Christmas gift to the Fort Wayne state hospital and training center? Mrs. William Brammer also has names.
