RURAL ELECTRIC PLAN EXPLAINEDTO CITIZENS Government Organizer Tells How Proposition Will Benefit Farmers z At a meeting last Friday evfieing in the High School building, Mr. Bonevitz, government organizer of the Rural Electrification plan addressed a large assembly of townpeople and farmers. He explained in detail the program for extending electric power lines into the farming and rural areas. The government advances all the money needed to erect lines and buy equipment, Mr. Bonevitz explained. The money is loaned on a2O year plan at an interest rate of three per cent per annum. Each member who signs a contract for service is requir- ■ ed to pay a fee of 310. which entitles him to a share in the project | At such time when the loan is rei paid, his share in the investment will entitle him to a share in the profits, if and as they occur. Fix Minimum Ra*e i The minimum rate for electricity, ‘ Mr. Bonevitz said, is $1.50 per | month and the rate at no lime is sup- • posed to exceed four cents per kilo- | watt. The current is purchased on the open market at the place, or from the company where the rate is lowest. I Boone county hss already organiz'ed 100 per cent in favor of rural electrification and much interest is shown in the plan there, Mr. Bonevitz said North Webster citizens, led possibly by the Chamber of Commerce, plan to hold a meeting to select a which will contact all I farmers in Tippecanoe Township, for the purpose of organization and selling the idea. GRADE SCHOOL BOAS IS OF BASKETBALL TEAMS 1 For the first time in several sea|sons inter school games were arranged for the seventh and eighth grade teams and to date five games have been played with near-by schools. At least three other gaanes are pending. The results as far as games won is concerned,has not been very satisfactory; yet the boys have shown gradual improvement and have one year tqoie experience in preparation for their high school career. Os the eighth graders, all of the boys except one have been out and played in games, which is in itself a worth while result, About half of the seventh graders have practiced and played. A summary of the games played shows losses by the first group to Etna, Troy Center, and Syracuse twice. A game was won from Cromwell The reserve squad lost two games to Syracuse, and won from Troy Center. They play Leesburg and Cromwell this week. ‘ We don’t understand girls any better but they are easier to see through.

Bilby and an accompanist from North Webster enterta ned with a group of familiar songs including several spirituals. Project Speeded. The project on which the 200 young men are engaged here, shows some advancement since weather has permitted outdoor work. The men are building a series of fish ponds for the state fish hatchery on Wawasee. One little incident kst week however, caused the boys some amusement, and made good-natured Hobart Cochran the target for many quips and jokes. Hobart, who is assistant ECW clerk, looked at the clock last Wednesday, and thought it registered 11:45 a. m., or lunch time. He rushed to the siren and sounded work recall. As the men came' into catnp, however, it was learned that the hour was 10:45 a. m., so the men returned to the project for another sixty minutes. 0 REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS The Journal is furnished with the following transfers of real estale bj Houton C.
