HEN HATCHES MALLARDS Says the Milford Mail: Herbert Lytle, owner and manager of the North Shore hotel, at Tippecanoe lake, is the proud possessor of six tame mallards. Last spring Mr. Lytle discovered a mallard’s nest containing nine eggs. He carefully carried the nest to his home and placed the eggs under a Plymouth Rock hen, with the result that Mrs. Hen left her nest later with six tiny ducklings waddling after her. Mr. Lytle has succeeded in domesticating the birds. They now' weigh about 1| pounds each, but the eld Plymouth Rock hen still mothers them. When the .'mallards take to the lake for a •swim the hen remains near the | soot where they enter and await•their return, and they alwavs come hack to that point. Mr. j Lytle can bring them in from the lake at any time by a peculiar call if they are near enough to hear him. . — Q - THE M ARNER ROAD A large delegation of Syracuse and Turkey Creek township res- ' i dents appeared before the county commissioners Tuesday to (urge action on the Warner road. This road has been under consideration for some time but has (met opposition on the part of 'certain owners of Wawasee projertv, whose ground must be taken for the new route established by the engineer. Mr. ■Krieg, who operates a toboggan ! slide on the lake, has filed projceedings in an effort to enjoin the commissioners from awarding, the centra-t. The road is to be a county-unit road. A large preportion of the people of the (township, including the property ■ owners around the lake are anxj ious to have the road constructed. o MOTOR BIS INDUSTRY There has recently sprung up throughout America a new industry. This is the modern Motor Bus. Those pioneering this great (business are engaged in develop- ! ing an enterprise which promises to be one of the most important and serviceable in the state —motor transportation. In a wav they are pioneers, they are men lof foresight, with ability to see ■ portunity and seize it. And they have already achieved much. Its development is not likely to come to a halt until the motor • bus finds its way into every well populated and accessible section •of the state. Unquestionably tris cemparsI tively new method of travel has had a marked effect upon transportation problems, an effect which will be more and more (widespread as the building of i smooth roads progresses. . ■——•— DISTILLERY WAS COMPLETE A distillery capable of producing 30 gallons of moonshine whiskey a day was uncovered by federal, city, and county dry forces (from Ft.

One philosopher has said that a friend is one who incessantly pays us the compliment of expecting great things nf us. Another has defined a friend as one who knows our faults and loves us still. A man’s dog goes them all one better: he never asks i questions, never explains, never ■ apologizes.—Collier’s. o United States manufacturers exported $18,000,000 worth of rifles and explosives to Europe ■in 1920. After war is outlawed lit will next be in order to suppress the manufacture and sale of the necessary materials. o England is facing a serious condition in Egypt where the Nationalists insist on the withdrawal of British troops, not only along the Suez canal, but at points far distant.
