Relatively speaking — Words and names confusion
By DORIS McMANISCAMDEN Even though English has been the language most commonly used in the United States, words and usage were not always the same as they are today. Jr after a name didn't always denote that his father had the same name. It could be an uncle or older cousin. Women occasionally are designated a junior. Cousin was not always a cousin as we know one; it could have been any relative or even a

A retired man may be listed as a gentleman. Mrs. did .not always mean a woman was married. It could denote wealth. In listings of marriage licenses, a woman was often called a spinster. This can refer to her occupation. In Colonia] times, a stepmother was sometimes called a mother-in-law.

Volunteers throughout the area are calling on local businesses and individuals in an effort to raise money for the helpful organization. Participating in the annual campaign, from left, are: Steve Kroh, Syracuse captain of the United Way; Jeff Wells, northern communities chairman, and Jim Evans, vice chairman of the Kosciusko County United Way Campaign. Those planning on pledging money who still have pledge cards are encouraged to send them to the local United Way. Others still wanting to pledge money may contact Evans, Kroh or Wells.

(Continued from page 1) Intersection Widening Examined Reporting for the street and water departments; Superintendent Ron Conley showed a map of the proposed widening of the Baltimore Street and SR 13 intersection. The widening would give more access to semi-trucks entering SR 13, widening the north end of the intersection by 12 feet. Conley reminded residents that no leaves are to be burned before sunset or after sundown while burning on town streets is prohibited. He also asked that residents not rake leaves into the street. After Conley asked for latitude to exempt NIPSCO and United Telephone System from deposits for repair charges during street cuts, due to the excessive work done by the two utility companies, the council instructed Reed to reword the ordinance requiring such deposits. The new ordinance will give the street superintendent policing power in such instances, giving him the power to wave deposits. Turning to the sewer department, the council agreed to pursue a plan to provide sewer service to those businesses off Brooklyn Street after Helman noted that Sellers Manufacturing and Syracuse Products had agreed to help pay for sewer extensions in the area. Noting that there was no existing sewer line on Brooklyn Street, Helman said that such a move would give the town an opportunity to add to its industrial park area. Council member Carl Myrick was under the impression that sewage capabilities already existed, stating, “I’m tired of being surprised with our sewage system. We have two industrial parks and neither has a sewage system. I don’t care what we have to do, borrow money or get it out of another fund, I feel we

need to do it (extend service).” Myrick made a motion to proceed with “whatever needed” to extend a sewage line on Brooklyn Street. Barbara Carwile seconded the motion and it carried 3-0 (council president Jim Hughes was absent). A further amendment to the motion calls for Helman to work out an agreement with Sellers and Syracuse Products to fund the extension. Helman will also investigate the possibility of extending service to Country Mobile Home Court, located north of QR ,2s. However, the owners of the park may be held responsible for funding the extension. In another matter, Helman reported that a problem with a lift station on North Huntington Street had been corrected, with two submersive pumps placed in the outdated station’s place. Change Order Approved Reporting for Ten Ech, the town’s contracted engineering firm, Randy Linley presented the council with a change order form calling for $10,232 to compensate for electrical changes made during construction of the wastewater treatment plant. Linley also suggested the council discontinue service to Liberty Homes Inc. if sewer line grouting, as required by the Environmental Protection Agency, isn’t completed by November 1. In final business, the council refused a revising of Ordinance 89-9, calling for the establishment of the Park and Recreation Department. While the park department required a second adoption of the ordinance to allow it to secure grants, Myrick questioned whether an item, calling for no more than two park board members to be members of the same political party, had been added. Thus, a motion for the ordinance’s approval failed to get unanimous support, with Myrick casting the dissenting vote. The Syracuse Town Council meets again in regular session at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 21.
