By M. LYNN GRAY Guest Feature Writer “Gee, cousin Sydney, what is that coming down the walk?” Sydney Squirrel stopped chewing on the acorn he held between his front paws and peered between the oak leaves that were rustling in the early night breeze. He saw several strangely dressed creatures making their way down the sidewalk in front of the Human Nest which their oaj; tree protected. 7 from area are honored Northern Indiana Public Service Company recently honored seven employees from the Lakeland area for 25 years of service. These employees have been involved in the company’s transition to one of the major distribution companies in the nation’s natural gas industry and a supplier of adequate and reliable electric energy to an important U.S. industrial market according to Edmund A. Schroer, NIPSCO chairman and chief executive officer. There were 192 men and women honored at the service awards dinner in Schererville, Tuesday, Oct. 15., for a quarter of a century of service with the company and its customers. Those honored from the area are: Leesburg — Marlin J. Brown Milford — David L. Hillery and Douglas L. Rensberger Syracuse — Frederick L. Avery, Darrell D. Grisamer, Danny O. Hardy and Donald L. Weaver “NIPSCO and northern Indiana were enjoying unprecedented growth, and in the following 25 years the two marched together as partners in the progress of this dynamic service area,” Schroer said. “However, it was the loyalty and dedication of our employees that made it possible for use to make the commitments and to succeed in our mission to fuel the development of northern Indiana.”
\ A’ .__ •**'■* ’ IT’S THAT TIME OF YEAR — As most of us would rather not see fall come because of the work it brings in raking leaves and knowing that winter will soon be here, others look forward to this time of year.

“Those are just Little Humans,” said Sydney between bites of acorn meat. “Each year they come around to our Humans Nest dressed in odd looking furs. See that one with the tall, black, pointy thing on its head? I think that is the same one that came last year!” Sydney could speak with some authority; after all, this was his third autumn in the Big Oak. Sydney’s little cousin, Ben, had only arrived at the Big Oak in the spring time. This would be his first autumn and cold time, and Sydney was helping him gather food for the long season ahead. “Look Sydney, our Humans are opening the door to their nest. How strange! The Little Funny Fur Humans are holding pouches and our Humans are putting pretty colored nuts in them. Look at the size of that shiny red nut! ” Ben Squirrel was chattering and jumping from branch to branch in his excitement. The oak leaves were bobbing and dancing from his activities and Sydney decided he better try to calm Ben before he fell out of the tree! “Ben, be quiet, or you’ll end up just like Great-great-grandpa Squirrel! ” threatened Sydney. Sensing a story, Ben stopped romping from limb to limb and in bright-eyed anticipation asked, “What happened to Great-great-grandpa? “Well, it took place many, many cold seasons ago,” began Sydney, as Ben snuggled down into the crotch of two limbs. “Grandpa was about your age and he jumped around a lot, too.” Sydney paused to let this soak in to his young listener’s head. From the yawn Ben gave, it didn’t seem to sink in too far. “Anyway, Grandpa was watching the Little Humans just like we are tonight and he got so excited he forgot where he was and he got on a branch too far. The branch wouldn’t hold his weight and started bending. Grandpa tried to scamper back to safety but he was too late. Crack! the branch snapped and down Grandpa fell, right into the pouch of one of the Little Humans! ”
Sydney stopped his story and contentedly munched on another acorn. Ben thought his cousin was being polite by not talking with his mouth full, but he did wish cousin Sydney could have waited till the story was over before he ate a snack. “What happened Sydney? Did the Humans hurt Grandpa?” Ben asked impatiently. “Not at all, Ben,” Sydney said, wiping his paws across his furry little face in best squirrel fashion. “As a matter of fact, the Little Humans had their heads covered with ugly green and purple fur and didn’t even see Grandpa land in their pouch.” Sydney paused once again to dampen a paw with his tongue and pat his whiskers into place. “Sydney, will you please stop grooming yourself and finish the story?” Ben exploded in a frenzy of chatters that threatened to knock them both out of the old oak. “Ok, Ok. I just wanted to build up the suspense a little bit more.” “Now, where was I? Oh, yes, Grandpa was in one of the pouches. Well sir, he wasn’t hurt one bit, just nearly scared to pieces.” “Pretty soon the Little Human holding Grandpa’s pouch put the pouch down on the porch step to talk to our Humans in the Nest. Grandpa saw his chance to escape, and grabbing one of the bright nuts out of the pouch, he dashed out of the opening and ran across the grass to the trunk of our oak tree and...” “You mean Great-great-grandpa was a thief?” Ben asked unbelievingly. “No. Well maybe technically he was. But taking that pretty acorn was an impulse reaction,” Sydney answered. “Back to the story. Grandpa got back to his nest and tried to remove the strange acorns’ shell. The more he held the nut and moved it around the more he felt that he never would open the stolen...” “I thought you said he wasn’t a thief,” Ben insisted. “Oh, did I say stolen, I should have said ‘borrowed.’ Well, he finally got the shell off and sniffed at the brown kernel in his paws. It smelled strange. He licked the kernel. It tasted strange.” “Great-great-grandpa decided the new acorn must be only for Little Humans and putting it aside, he took one of the oaks’ acorns and had his dinner.” Ending the story on that note, Sydney took up another acorn and had his dinner also. Ben thoughtfully wandered back onto the branch that overhung the Humans’ Nest. He paused over the Little Humans and when he strolled back to Sydney, he looked wiser and happier. The kitchen door banged open and a black-garbed witch and a white-sheeted ghost stumbled into the warmth and light of home. “What did you get, Billy?” asked the little witch as she dumped her trick-or-treat bag on to the counter. “Just about what you got, Susie,” said the shrouded ghost as he also emptied out his treasures on the table. “Popcorn balls, Tootsie Rolls, Life Savers, apples, an acorn...” Julie Dußois attends seminar Julie Dußois, Sunrise Photography in North Webster, recently attended a glamour, fashion, and studio lighting seminar with the internationally noted photographer Gary Bernstein.

Jacobs, Northern Indiana Public Service Company director of public relations, said Monday, Oct. 14, he had been advised by company counsel the company intends to file motions for a new trial. NIPSCO was ordered on October 11 to pay Carbon County Coal Company slßl million following a lawsuit concerning a 15-year coal contract. Jacobs said “We intend to file motions for a new trial and other post trial motions, and if necessary, the company will appeal from the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit to protect * the interests of its customers and shareholders.” He was advised by the company council that the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Indiana ordered the clerk to enter judgment on the jury’s verdict awarding Carbon County Coal Company slßl million; denied NIPSCO’s claim for equitable relief; denied Carbon County Coal Company’s request for specific performance of the coal contract; and dissolved the temporary injunction upon entry by the clerk of said judgment.
