JANUARY 22. 1931 ON THE TOWNSHIP POOR RELIEF t There has been so much discussior concerning the poor, their relief, the poor laws.’ and the township pooi fund, that the following informatioi has been obtained. The poor and the care of same al ways has been a big problem judging from the number of pages devoted t< poor laws in the statutes of the state. „ Following are some excerpts fron Burns, Indiana Statutes: “Township trustees shall be e> officio the overseers of the poor with in their respective townships. “It is the duty of the overseer o the poor to carefully investigate th< circumstances of poor persons niak ing a claim for relief. “Whenever an overseer shall ascer tain by investigation that any poo person or family require assistance he shall furnish to them such tern porary aid as may be necessary so the relief of immediate and pressim suffering; before any further or .pm* manent relief in any case is gives the overseer shall consider whethe. distress can be relieved by othe means than an expenditure of town ship funds. “Whenever an overseer of the poo shall have given aid, other than bur ial, medical relief or assistance t< children under the compulsory edu cation law, to any poor person o family, to the amount of the value o fifteen dollars, it shall be unlawfi for him to furnish any further aid t< such poor person, or family, until h» shall have presented a statement o: the case to the board of county com missioners, with schedule • • • On the inspection of said schedule the county commissioners may autho rise the overseer to extend fur|he: aid to such person or persons.” . The statute states that the state ment may be presented to the county audior when the county commission ers are not in session. The auditoi has the power to advance money so: relief. The statute explains how money for relief is accounted for and how tax levies are made to take care o1 advance made. The auditor keeps a record show ing advances made /to each township. A levy is made against the property of each township to cover the ad vances either the townshit trustee or the county auditor. In th» case of Turkey Creek Township, the auditor makes the levy. There has been a great deal of talk about the township not being abk to take care of its poor. This is not true. The county commissioners allow money when necessary for the poor of the township. Taking care of a family dr families for a period of months, means that the property owners of the township will have to bear the burden of keeping them. ASKS DIVORCE. ■'ll. ~ Mary Roselle Swank has brought action for divorce from Emory i Swank, alleging that he called her opprobrious names and failed to sup- i port her. The couple were wed April 1929, and separated July, 1930. ’

You know your Grocer, your Druggist but DO you KNOW YOUR BAKER 9 e a. Are you sure your bread is made under ideal conditions of cleanliness? Are you sure cheap ma-r terials and substitutes are not used? After all a low priced bread is not necessarily a bargain. Any baker can make cheap bread. But pure bread —clean bread — bread high in food value—-bread you may be sure about —may cost a trifle more. Economy is not always reflected in price. There’s a big difference in Bread just as there is a big difference in every other commodity. HOLSUM Bread is the very cheapest of all foods. It’s made with milk and the highest grade of every other material. Besides, it’s made with a Mother’s care in a bakery as clean as your own kitchen.
