Mrs Leland (Margaret) Capp of Indianapolis sent us the picture topping this column this week saying she thought it was a photo of the old Sargent Hotel which was located on the north shore of Lake Wawasee She added how much she had enjoyed the article on Wales Macy and his Golden Rain tree, that she raises them, and has many.

Mrs Clapp, a granddaughter of Kitson. said she brought a tree to town when she moved in 1953 and that Agnes Stiffler also has a tree. Hear 14-year-old Dave Ensinger recently received the camper of the week award over 208 other young Boy Scouts while attending summer camp at Camp Little Turtle near Angola, and got t go back to camp free for two more weeks to help on the staff. That's great. The Hoosier Leather Guild is holding a leather show at the Cardinal center, Warsaw, on August 18 between the hours of 11-5 and anyone may enter the affair. More information may be obtained by calling Mrs Elinor Bieber at Syracuse Bonnie and Jean were wellreceived Friday at their grand opening of The Stout Boutique with registration showing many area towns being represented, plus several from out of the state. The decor is unusual and charming right down to antique jugs, furniture and oldtime pictures Harry Nicolai, who died last week, had some hidden talents, which showed up at last week’s Rotary meeting. Member Paul Levemier turned up with wig and southern drawl, introduced as Frank Wilson of Nashville with a surprise musical program The surprise, it turned out. was .Al Bauer on the organ (Al’s a real pro on the organ), Bill Cutter on the guitar (and he ain’t all that bad), and Nicolai on the organ, working up his part of the

program with one hand. Those who heard the program said it was a surprise, all right, a surprise that Cutter and Nicolai were as good as they were. .Also at the Rotary club, each member was fined, the moneygoing to the current cystic fibrosis program. The amount netted: Si3B. Os this amount SSO is put on the nose of member John Call who will be attempting the two-mile Swim from the Waco pier to Wawasee Prep. Saturday. Aug. 24. ■ At 3". Call rims regularly and considers himself in top physical shape. He’s probably the oldest of the group already signed up. but he’s working on laundromat operator Ron Vestal, who at 38 is an excellent golfer but has doubts about his swimming prowess. Kosciusko county Democrats registered up more than 500 persons at their fair booth for the Nov ember election. The saga of the two missing ponies from the Clif Poole farm apparently has a sequel. Maro Myers, a neighbor of the Poole place, informs us the ponies were not stolen but walked into his barn. Myers said he had no idea whose ponies they were, having only recently moved to the area. He said he assessed Poole S6O for feeding the ponies and for damage done to crops, but only received SSO. He said Poole advertised a SIOO reward for the return of the ponies. “I never did receive the $100.” Myers said irately. Forrest Grubbs, a resident of Wawasee Village and a collector, claims to have an old Edison phonograph with a number of old speeches recorded. One is of a William Jennings Bryan speech, made in 1908 when he ran for president against William Howard Taft. He also has a 1932 Kansas license plate, with an attached plate: “Vote for Roosevelt.” The fourth annual Spink Gale, held Saturday night, drew 180 persons, according to Father Charles Kunkel, vice president in charge of development at Wawasee Prep. The pinner-dance is scheduled to be held each year on the second Saturday in August. Father Kunkel said. Look for Das Keller to be open before Labor Day.

On Tuesday of this week roofers were busy patching the roof of Hook’s drugs on Pickwick Road. According to store manager Larry Harter, when he opened the store on Sunday he noticed water on the floor near* « the rear of the store. J He investigated and found someone had chopped a large hole in the roof, but finally gave up their attempt at entry. No one hurt, nothing taken; only a gaping hole in the roof. Report — (Continued from page 1) total of 278 children were in the i program for a period of six weeks I or longer. Mrs. Nelson said some students I in the program became more I interested in the program than in other classes at school commenting they liked it better than recess and better than summer. Teachers say students who have been in the program have more interest in reading, they get the extra help and attention they need in the program, are willing to try new things, and gain selfconfidence. In June of this year the school board gave Naab permission to file for additional Title I funds to continue the program. The new application is 34 pages long but Naab feels it is well worth the time. His 1974 report shows the corporation project cost on the federal program from August 30. 1973 to August 30, 1974 was $27,244.60. The program includes both the tutorial reading and the school nurse. In a question and answer session Naab told board members the current program goes from the first grade through the eighth grade with both the freshmen and sophomores at the high school having nine weeks of reading. At the high school level, however, there is no individual approach, only reading level groups with each class being divided into three levels. He said there is also a special needs program at the high school. Credit Given Following the report board member Floyd Baker said he felt credit should be given to superintendent Don H. Arnold who has been the prime mover in updating Lakeland’s reading program. The program was at a low point when Arnold became superintendent, said Baker. However, he continued. Arnold started to “hit it” and through his efforts people like Mr. Naab and Mrs. Nelson were hired and are doing a “tremendous job.”, Arnold said he only sought people who could get the job done and credit should be given where it is due to those who are working with the program. Naab said the project had to be a cooperative effort, adding the school board’s support in obtaining federal monies to fund the project has helped to make the program a success Baker then concluded bysaying as he travels throughout the states many people approach him about the program which is underway in the Lakeland schools. The program is above many with parents in other school corporations seeking reading help for their children. Other Business In other business before the board Philip Payne questioned business manager Marion Lantz •on the S4OO hydrant rental charge be-ing paid to the town of Syracuse. Lantz said attorney Robert Reed checked the charges and they were paid according to Syracuse town ordinance. Board members agreed that since the school corporation laid the water line to the high school and installed the hydrants it should not have to pay an additional S4OO rental per year. Lantz was instructed to have Reed present at the next meeting to explain the charges. Lantz was also asked if the corporation had been reimbursed for the lines which have been run to Wawasee Heights from the school's line. He said they have

<J ■’ ‘ irlT - -REW \ls ROASTING CORN — This photo was taken on Saturday. Aug. 3. as members of the Kiwanis club of Lakeland roasted corn, cooked sausage and prepared orange drinks for their fourth annual corn and sausage roast in front of Camelot hall in North Webster.

Jay Boyer, Stu Walker and Ron Richey. Robert L. Day, president of the club, and committees in charge of this club event report that 700 pounds of sausage and 475 dozen ears of sweet corn were needed to serve approximately 3.500 who attended the roast. Proceeds from this Kiwanis com and sausage roast will be used in the Lakeland community for youth projects.

been reimbursed but would check on it for sure. Superintendent Don H. Arnold recommended Glenn Miller, a graduate of Goshen college, as social studies teacher at the Milford junior high school. Miller was approved. He is a first year teacher and will also serve as an assistant football coach at the school. Arnold also said he had received a telephone call earlier in the day to the effect that vo ag teacher Dennis Mikesell was submitting his resignation. Mikesell asked his resignation to be effective on August 14 and will send the board a written notice of same. The board accepted the resignation. The superintendent said both Mikesell and Dave McGrew were in Indianapolis at a vocational meeting. He said he had talked with who would let it be known there that the corporation is looking for a person to fill this position. When McGrew returns to the area a meeting will be held with hopes a replacement can be found prior to the opening of school. Gas — Oil Business manager Marion Lantz reported back to the board on the gas and oil bids which had been opened at a previous meeting. He said the Farm Bureau would give the school its full supply of fuel oil at the current price at the time of delivery. The price on the bid is 30.4. Standard Oil, on the other hand, will only supply the corporation with the amount it is required to supplyaccording to federal guidelines. The current price at Standard is 30.7. Board members awarded the fuel oil contract to the Kosciusko County Farm Bureau Co-op. The Farm Bureau bid 44.4 as current price on gasoline for Wawasee high school with no bid for Milford or North Webster. Standard Oil agreed to supply all three schools with the current price at the high school being 48.79 per gallon and the current price for Milford and North Webster being 43.68. Standard’s allocation is equal to the corporation's needs and the company will be given the contract for the coming school year A military achievement test diploma for Sgt. Kenneth L. Bond of r 1 Pierceton was signed. Bond, a former student at Wawasee high school, is with the US Marines Lantz also commented on installing the government machinery which is now at the high school. He said he had written to several electrical companies for estimates on the work with answers being received from four. The estimates ranged from $7,163

to $10,732 with a range from 250 to 400 amps. After discussion it was decided to ask the companies for bids on running a line from the boiler room to the shop at the present time and completion of the work in November. Lantz said the shop instructors can reconnect the old equipment which was moved to make way for the new items and clean the new equipment and get it ready to go between now and November. Lantz said the most expense will be in running the cable to the shop. At any rate, he added, it is a pretty good deal for $150,000 worth of equipment. Lantz will obtain more information on the electrical work and report back to the board. The board will meet on August 29 for its annual budget hearing. Wheat - (Continued from page 1) this protection in the past are reminded that the final date for taking applications for winter wheat is September 30. unless continued adverse conditions make it necessary to close sales earlier. To learn more about this program, farmers should contact the representative-in-charge of the FCIC office at Room 7, 513 Main street, Rochester. She can explain how a farmer can protect his crops against all natural hazards beyond his control.
