Id. 1934 MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS Two men, a preacher and a carpenter, were seen dumping an old metal roof into .Syracuse Lake last week. The fish in the lake probably are greatly in need of some iron—a tonic after having been fed so much garbage which some citizens, having an eye for health and beauty so obligingly dump into the lake. A couple of toots, a roar ' and a cloud, of dust and cinders—and President Roosevelt’s special train swept through Syracuse on the B. &O. R. R., last Thursday evening without any sign of stopping until forced to at Garrett railroad yards. Even so, Syracuse did not fare any worse than Governor Paul V. McNutt, who waited two hours at Gary for the arrival of the president's train, to be taken aboard for a ride and •‘conference’’ as far as Garrett. He was greeted with a cloud of dust as the train roared past him on its way east. The rain yesterday did unestimated good although arriving late in the season. The women from the Hex Grange, who held a bake sale in the Journal office yesterday morning, although not rushed with business as if it had been pleasant weather, said if they had known it would have made it rain they'd have had a' bake sale two months ago.

GARDENJPARTY (Continued from Page One) ical growth of his garden of plants. Then if guests cared to continue to stroll about, while the program was being presented they crossed the pontoon bridge to the island, assisted on the bridge and off by other Aid members husbands, so that no one would trip in darkness. Crossing the island to the Chinese boat house meant crossing a Chinese bridge resembling (he one on Willow ware platters. Here guests were assisted again, and dim red lights made a glow from beneath the low steps at each end of the bridge. The Chinese house was well lighted and admiration of it, its carved doors imported from China, the dragon on its floor, the furniture with which it was equipped, was expressed by each one who viewed the house. “ The house had been copied from a wood cut of a Chinese houseboat and placed at the end of the island, to give the appearance of a house boat in the water of the channel. Guests walked about what would have been the deck had it been a real houseboat and returned to the main island by the bridge again. But before leaving the house, each guest was presented with a Chinese hat, favors "of the party given by Mr. Long. The 500 hats had all been given out before all of the guests had visited the Chinese house. So, listening with rapt attention, jhe audience enjoyed the musical program presented amidst this oriental splendor. In keeping with the setting of the night’s entertainment, as the closing number of the program Mr. Steffen sang, “On the Road to Mandalay.” Members of the Ladies Aid appreciate the kindness of each one who took part in the program to make their party such a success, and they particularly appreciate the work of Mrs? Nelson Miles, who was the member of the Aid in charge of the garden party. Mr. Steffen complimented the assembled group on its being such, a well-behaved audience, the behavior showing well the interest in each number presented. And the Aid and all of the guests at the Garden party appreciate Mr. Long’s unusual community spirit, Lake Wawasee community spirit and his part in making the party such a success. Those who attended the party could be heard expressing their appreciation to each other of the various numbers on the program, and the work of Mr. Steffen as master of ceremonies in addition to his part. in the program. It is the hope of the Journal, and those present at the garden party that a similar event will be held another year, as both Mr. Long and Mr. Steffen have indicated that they would be glad to assist at another such affair. (J FOUND IN SYRACUSE; CHARGE—WIFE DESERTION William McKinley of Garrett wastaken into custody, here, Saturday night on a state warrant charging wife desertion, non support, and other charges that can be preferred by a wife with children who has been deserted by her husband. McKinley was taken to Garrett that same night. The night marshal of Garrett and the constable from that place came to Syracuse, looking for McKinley, Saturday night. They found Ocal Craft, night watchman, who took them to the home of Mrs. Hattie Davis on Boston street, where Me. Kinley was found in bed by the officers. It seems that McKinley leaves his wife quite often, because according to Charles Rentfrow, the sheriff has had several warrants for the arrest of McKinley. One time McKinley was apprehended but his wife refused to appear against him. SP 111 — 11 . . » . V
