Arnold has joined the Hall & Marose Insurance Agency of Warsaw, which firm recently bought out the Little & Clark Insurance Agency of Milford. Little remains in that Milford office plying his accounting business as before. —o— NIPSCO RETIREE Joe O.

When Kim served Joe his usual eggs and toast, a burning candle was standing on each piece of toast. Joe was 22 years of age when the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, Japan — if that fact gives one a clue to his age. —o— THE RAINS of the past few days have been a God-send to many an area farmer.

Shriners park cars

ByARTCHANEY Guest Writer The Shrine Club of Kosciusko County has about 300 members, and they are the folks who handle the admission charges at the Kosciusko County fairgrounds. They have been doing this for about 20 years, and their percent is what is used to defray the expenses for the third grade school children to go to the Ft. Wayne circus. This experience is a longawaited event in the life of these youngsters. This is told to them when they first start to school, and when that day arrives excitement is in the air. A Shriner was once overheard to remark, “Wouldn’t miss that trip for anything. I get more out of it than any of the kids do. ” This trip entails getting the lunch boxes filled the night prior to the trip, getting the students loaded and taken to Fort Wayne, getting all of them on the bus to return home, and then see that all are taken care of so that no youngster is left waiting for someone to take them home. As Mike Ringer tells us, “It takes about 100 Shriners to handle these 6 days and nights at the county fair; and if we get paid

about $3 per hour, we do pretty good. But it is away to secure funds for our activities. “We have Children’s Hospitals in various places in the U.S., and no one is ever turned down. We know no race, color, or creed category. If the youngster needs treatment, we’ll take care of it.” Mike goes on to relate, “Us ‘kids’ like to play with our minibikes, and we will range from 21 years to 78 years. Most of us are in this for what we can do for others. Os course, we have good times doing these things also.” Wawasee Board to meet in the Syracuse School The Wawasee Community School Board will meet August 13 at the cafeteria of Syracuse Junior High School — not at the administration building. The meeting will start at 7:30 p.m. and an executive session will immediately follow. Hard to do The fact that figures don’t lie is a good reason to stick to a diet. — Courier, Waterloo. la.
