the State Department of Natural Resources will cooperate in mainta 'ng and repairing the Grassy eek Dam. Because of the constant low water in the Barbee Chain of Lakes a dam was built in Grassy Creek in 1957. Locks were later installed at the dam to accommodate boats going back and forth between Tippecanoe Lake and the Barbee Lakes. Half of all the cost of constructing the dam and locks was paid by the Property Owners Association. The other half was paid by the State of Indiana.
To date, the Association has payed over $20,000 to help build and maintain the dam and locks. The Association also removes rocks and stumps from the lakes to keep boating channels open and safe; paints and maintains all buoys, signs and markers, and assumes part of the expenses for lake patrol law enforcement by the County Sheriff’s Department. These expenses have amounted to approximately SI,OOO per year. If the Barbee Lakes are to survive in a pollution free, clean, safe and natural state, more projects and expenses must be assumed by the Association. At the present time there is a deterioration of water quality and fishing in the lakes. It is suspected that some pollution problems are being caused by improperly functioning septic systems. Expenses for a program of testing septic systems by the board of health will be paid for by the association. Repair of faulty septic systems can be enforced by the county board of health. Although some water needs are desirable in lakes for better fishing conditions many areas are now so choked with vegetation they are unuseable for boating, fishing or swimming. The expense for a program of water weed control will have to

Gerald Ford endorses ISP counseling program
Former President Gerald R. Ford recently endorsed a program of counseling and referral to medical authorities developed by the Indiana State Police (ISP). The program involves counseling and medical referral for a variety of problems that can afflict state police officers including alcoholism, mental and emotional difficulties, marital problems and the special pressures associated with the duty involved in state police work. Ford, who learned of the nationally-known ISP program through Indiana Governor Otis R. Bowen, discussed the program’s development recently with Father Richard A. Cooley, who supervises the chaplaincy program. Although the ISP chaplains program was a “first of its kind” in the United States, it has since been followed by other police departments. The program began under former ISP Superintendent Robert L. Deßard’s term through a grant from the Lilly Foundation, which funded a full-time

MEMBERS OF the audience who attended the Wagon Wheel Theater production of. “Pippin” on August 29 were treated to a display of quick thinking on the part of the actors. At one of the most dramatic moments in the show a large dog was brought on stage, as it had been for each of the last nine performances. But, on the 29th something had evidently upset the dog and it threw up all over the stage. Pippin yelled for a mop. A member of the cast immediately rushed on stage and mopped up the mess with a costume. The orchestra presented the mopper with a drum roll as she took a bow following her extra, unscheduled performance. And the show went on ... -NW-

Superintendent Shettle stated, “The chaplaincy provides an ever-increasing variety of services to the men and women of the organization and also to their families and continues to look for new ways to minister to their needs. I appreciate the support of Governor Bowen and President Ford, they are men who are well aware of the pressures of government and can empathize with the police officer who is the leading edge of government in today’s troubled society.” Telephone Co. reports damage United Telephone Company official, Syracuse division, reported damage done to telephone boxes and wires early Thursday.

Four methods of drying flowers
By drying flowers, gardeners can keep the beauty of summer color around the entire year. And whether displayed alone or combined with fresh flowers, dried flower arrangements can add an attractive “touch” to the home decor. There are four simple methods of preserving the blooms, according to John A. Wott, Purdue University extension home environment horticulturist. These are the air drying method, glycerine method, pressing method, and the newest of the four —by use of a microwave oven. “Not only is the microwave method the newest, it is also the fastest,” says the specialist. “In this way the drying is done in a matter of minutes instead of requiring two or more days,” he adds. Wott suggests that you pick flowers for drying when they are not overly wet, but before they wilt in the day’s heat. Then treat the flowers soon after picking. If special shapes are desired, wire and shape the stems before drying. To dry flowers in a microwave oven, partially fill a large glass jar with silica gel, then carefully add more silica gel to completely cover the flowers. Wott advises separating the petals with toothpicks. Place the jar in the oven and heat at full power for one to three minutes. Then remove the container and allow it to cool. Carefully remove the flowers and brush away the silica gel. The specialist says you may have to

experiment with the timing by using individual flowers. Larger flowers will require more time. For details about the other three methods, ask for publication HO-102, “Drying Flowers,” at your county Extension office, or write to Mailing Room, AGAD Building, Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN 47907. Single copies are free to Indiana residents. Dried flowers are especially useful during the winter. However, don’t limit their use to only winter arrangements. Wott suggests choosing browns for a refreshing summer arrangement. Before using dried flowers, reinforce and lengthen stems with florist’s sticks and wire. Cover the wire with green or brown tape. A needlepoint holder anchors dried flowers in low containers while sand holds them

in upright containers. Dried flowers that are not used in arrangements can be stored in tightly-capped jars containing silica gel. Knuckle crackers, relax There’s good news for people who crack their knuckles A southern California physician reports he has conducted a study of 28 elderly patients and 28 children to see if there might be truth to the adage that the cracking of knuckles can later lead to arthritis. The conclusion of Dr. Robert Swezey is that knuckle-cracking does not in any way cause arthritis. The ’ doctor adds, however: “The chief morbid consequence of knuckle-cracking would appear to be its annoying effect on the observer.' ’
