Under the heading ! sos ‘’Small Blessing* Thankfully Received" comes the news that in March closing fell to a low ebb and > were more than made up for by the i opening of banks bigger' than those that closed. : On the other hand no Canadian bank has closed.

A few tines and the World heard n<> more of him But if war sb -uld come, he and other pilots as brave, would be this country’s chief reliance. Another, different, story of death comes 'from Niagara, hundreds of wild swans, lighting on the river above the falls, to rest, were trapped in the swift current, which would not let them rise, many killed. How many tragedies that cataract has seen. Third and last death story is that of a fierce water buffalo that had long lorded it over all the inhabitants of a swamp on northern Luxon island.in the Philippine islands. Little did the buffalo dream that death was approaching' in the form of a slender, relentless governor general named Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. There stcod the buffalo, pawing savagely.

TOWN BOARD TO PURCHASE WATER PUMP ’• ■ j New One Needed—Also To Start Grading Boston Street. At it* regular meeting Tuesday i evening, the town board decided to purchase a Deming water pump to: .eplace the old one which is not being used. The plan to purchase a pump is not a new one.

COUNTY WILL HAVE COUNTY VETERINARIAN Writ Forces Council To Make Decision On Monday Meeting informally, Monday, the county council decided to accept a writ of mandate from the circuit court, to appropriate not more than 51,500 for the purpose of re-accred-iting Kosciusko county as a modified bovine tuberculosis free area. The action for mandate was brought by Millard Stookey against the council and asked that on April 4 a writ of mandate be issued by the circuit court to the Kosciusko countycouncil directing, ordering and requiring said county council to adopt and pass an ordinance making an appropriation in the sum and amount adequate and sufficient to retest cattle. G St' First Paragraph The action for mandate was in tw’o paragraphs. The first stated that about five years ago the Kosciusko county council, to enable the state veterinarian to control and extirpate .bovine tuberculosis more effectively in Kosciusko county »nd to aid in establishing and maintaining said county as a modified accredited tuberculosis free area, that pursuant to the council action, appropriate and requisite tests made by the state veterinarian within the count) and that the county was about April 1, 1929, established as a tuberculosis free area. The action for mandate then went on to state that in 1931 the inspectot for the U. S. Bureau of Animal Industry and the state veterinarian notified the county council that they, the inspectors, had determined that the cattle within the cdunty must be retested to conform to federal and state regulations for re-accrediting of counties. - . The action then said that the council ignoi»«i •: fe and refused to make any appropriation for retesting the cattle. » . It then stated that the making of the appropriation was mandatory upon the county" council. Then followed the explanation that a large amount and proportion of milk produced and sold from the cattle of Kosciusko county is and has been, sold in Ohio and Illinois and that under federal and state regulations the markets of Ohio and Illinois would be shut off after April Ist unless the county council made the appropriation. The action also said that on March 28 the county council meeting in special session to reconsider its failure and refusal to make the appropriation again failed and refused to make the appropriation. It further stated that the county council will not make the necessary appropiation unless mandated, and that a sum of not, less than $1,500 and not more than $5,000 to be expended during 1932 will be necessary to retest the cattle in the county. Second Pragraph. The sefbnd paragraph of the action for mandate stated much that is the same as in the first paragraph, and that action was brought because in 1931 the state veterinarian had notified the council that the Elkhart and Marshall and other contigous (Continued from First

At any rate when Mrs. M. Snobarger came home from services at the Lutheran church Sunday morning she saw the youngster wandering on Boston street. Two men had asked him where he was bound and he didn’t know, and they turned him over to Mrs. Snobarger who said she would take him into her house to get warm as he was so cold. She asked him his name and his father's name but he was frightened and crying so hard that he couldn’t remember. He knew he’d been at Sunday school. He became more hysterical and she telephoned Eugene Maloy who drove to Snobarger’s on Boston street and got the young man and brought him uptown. The crowd at the Brethren church had just been photopraghed and Maloy stopped there to ask if anyone knew the boy. He found Mrs. Aldean Searfoss who hadn’t missed the boy, had thought he was with others from the Sunday school. She took charge of the wanderer. a
