Rumor has it that steam passenger ! ; trains on the South Bend division of i 1 the Pennsylvania may be displaced by gasoline-electric motor coaches. I which will pass thru Plymouth and Lakeville.

The Hotel Sher- j man further set a world record when . it bought the champion cattle carcass of the show at seven dollars a | pound.
