PRICE, $1.60 A YEAR MORNINGTRAINS SONTO BEA THINGOFPAST Th» Ohio Public Utilities Commis­ sion has given the Pennsylvania Rail- toad Company permission to discon­ tinue the two morning trains on the Cincmnati-Colum'bus division. The new order eliminates one morning train, west and one morning train east and leaves towns along the line (be­ tween \Xenia and Columbus without . service other than pn Sunday when both, morning trams will operate. The application has been pending io t some time, Host of the towns are now served with bus lines and 'the company claims the trains dropped were not profitable. Just what will be done with, the mail service is not known. Both trains were mail trains. The west bound was the heaviest mail train and .the one that served the towns on the.line, . The loc&l postoffice reports, that no instructions have been received as, to the Hours mails Will arrive op bedis- patched. The morning train west1as •* rule brought nearly a dray. load of mail, a large pait of which was parcel post. Local parcel-post out”was usu­ ally dispatched on these two trains. The first class mail may be received from ope q £ the, sections o f 21 west but as neither stop there is no chance for parcel post mail in the morning.; It has been suggested that in as much as the accomodation trains are to be taken off. No. 121, or the Cin­ cinnati division, train may be made! fl&g stop. The same might be said of the train east about 11 o’clock. In that case parcel post mail could be hand­ led. This would make tht rural route drivers later than they have been in leaving for their daily trip. If no parcel post mail arrives in the mprning i t would be necessary to bring it from the east on the evening trainl As this is closing time.for the post office it T^ould not he worked fw distribution until the next morning, M.

As, to crop conditions Mr. Ewry .ays. the best wheat he has found .is n this section of Ohio.. In the Kansas Wheat section along the route travel­ ed the estimate now is about 16 bush­ els While early in the spring forty bushels was the prediction. At the time Mr. Ewry was in Kansas he says thousands of acres of wheat Were standing in wajeiv What corn was up looked good but most of it had never been cultivated. On the trip Mr. Ewry covered 10,833. miles nnd traversed 12 states.

H« Carpenter, general manager o f the Coshocton Straw Paper Company, was authoris­ ed to request contributions from the various companies engaged in . the manufacture o f strawboard. These assessments were based upon the yearly tonnage of finished pro­ ducts by each company at the rate of one-half cent per ton, Twenty-six companies doing business in Ohio, In­ diana, Illinois, Michigan, New York, Iowa and Kansas were solicited for funds on this basis and up . to this time checks in full have bfeen received from 20 companies. A Committee will soon be jappoinfc- ed to take charge of the experimental work and a sanitary engineer will be hired To carry on the .technical re­ search. It is likely that much of the actual experimental work will be jiaiys at the plant of the Hagar Straw Board Company at Cedarville, Ohio.. This company already has in. opera­ tion ' certain • epuipment for the treating its waste water and-with this as a nucleus other necessary equipment can be installed as needled. In the latest- edition of Ohio Health News published by the, state depart­ ment! of health, the strawboard com­ panies are commended for, their ef­ forts to find a satisfactory method of disposing o f waste matter. I t spCaks of them as follows "The strawboard people aie going about this work of finding some prac­ tical method'of solving their -Waste- water problem with a great deal of enthusiastic determination, ’ ■ Much credit for the good beginning made by this industry is due to' Mr. Frobman, | Mrs. A fall on probably death of at the Js day in Although tured bip she had death, whiq hemroorrhai vived by Wichita, Xenia, Cl« Lester Tate,: Charles E- brother, J.

It is hopedtihat the efforts of the straw- board industry wilL quickly result in the finding of a practjval method of handling this troublesome waste.” 1 t. May Ignore Law As To trustees The law passed hy the last legisla­ ture that almost put township trus­ tees out of commission, is loaded with dynamite and there are So many pro­ tests over the state that even Republi can officials in Columbus are not anx­ ious to, put in force? We have been in a number of counties within the p&st month and find that public sentiment is far from lending support to either the good or the bad 1& wb passed by the lobby owned and controlled body. The Republicans are anxious to elect one more governor and leaders now see that the plan to do away with township trustees is not meeting; with approval. The legislature, attempted to restore the grafting justice of peace courts in the state after the United States Supreme Court had held such courts were unconstituional as operated. This law is up for a referendum vote and will be swamped with negative votes. The automobile dubs and labor organizations as well as many civic organizations are now pledged to get signers to petitions. Nr.lv > ' fed 1*** * *%** ♦ WrtWr* I mm * Wife Seeks $5,000 .

New Rules For Gasoline Pumps The new filling station law will go into effect after June 30. The law specifies that all gasoline pumps be equipped with a “ sight glass” which will enable the purchaser to see that he is getting full measure, Tpis means that all pumps that cannot be so equipped must be junked.

As is known Marietta is put; oldest town in the state, and is the out­ growth o f » settlement o f pioneer families that landed at what later was Camp Martins in 1788. Many of'the early historical spots are preserved, and kept with much pride. The different historical points of interest are. all marked and .when one comes to a street corner signs di­ rect the visitor to that particular spot in that section. > Standing, there today as it stood in 1786 and $8’ is the old Land .Office- of the Ohio Company which dished out all the land in the north-West terri­ tory which includes Ohio, Indiana-, 111- nois, Michigan and several other states. The building Is in the same location just as it stood in the days gone by and visitor# find it interesting to see such a land mark* Nearby is the Ru­ fus Putman home built from a part of. o f the old fort in 1791. The site was purchased ’by the State and the structure is nOWb#ng improved some what by a historical soeiet y to pre­ serve the building, Then Marietta is the home of Vice President ChSries 0 . Dawes and his birthplace is a point of interest. The old home Of Gov. Meigs is another of the old residences worthy o f note. Marietta also claims the largest Elm tree in Ohio and this stately old giant stands prominent among the show places of the city. Nearby in the Ohio is Blennethaswtt Island in the mid­ dle o f the stream. While many o f us may have forgotten our school history of this island yet when the name of Aaron Burr is mentioned as one that sought to set UP a separate empire in the ■biidwsSt, we find that event one of the dark spots in Ohio history. Marietta atso holds the distinction of having th* oldest Masonic lodge in the,state and among its one time vis­ itors was George Washington. The first governor of the North­ west territory was Gen. Arthur St* Cair and hit home was in Ohio's old­ est city. While Marietta boasts of a promi­ nent part in Ohio history she dan al­ so boast’ of much progress for it is one of th* beet 16009 cities of the state w* have over visited. The great fertile valley along the Muskingum is producing riches for thousands of gardner* and fruit growers thajj. send their products to- all the big eastern cities, Th* ctkr ha* many manufac­ turing plants whose products fea to all section# of th# world* Washington county ha# gre and within its boundriss. ThM moan* there is mrich wealth about the d ty and the -finairi A i cial institutions stand out as’ leaders’ in southern Ohio. ‘ *' * •’ The city is well paved nndjias won-i derftil shade trees that- canopy over the wide streets. The beautiful homes in* the residence section reflects' the financial standing of the city as well as the civic pride, '• > Many churches of all denomina­ tions dot the city which is peopled' with that sturdy stock ,of ancestors that first settled' and then erected churches ns fast as the need warrant­ ed. Marietta is a conservative church going town. Magnifiicant school buildings here and, there, mat'k the progress o f the city along educational lines. The city is also the home of Marietta,^College one of the older in­ stitutions that has graduated many men that hpve become noted in all fields of endeavoiv Marietta has reason to feel proud of her ancestry and history but she also has a rightful claim to ff progress in many enterprises and professions as well. Only about three years ago the city proffered to finance a'leading industry that it might expand and a million dollars was subscribed, On this day, July 1st this great sum will be repaid to the'subscribers. Mean­ time the holders of these securities have drawn interest annually and the stock will be redeemed above par. A motor trip through most o f the southern counties in that section is one of-pleasure and delight. You will find, many brick, concrete and good gravel roads, the latter being built up from the old dirt type road making a bed for a better top later* In some respects counties traversed have bet­ ter hard surface roads, more durable, than- will be found in this section of the State* U.
