School of the Air and. other educational pro grams . will be obtained from the radio. Phonograph records will be used, for public speaking, music and other classes where desired. The microphone may be Used for an- . nouncements {from the superintend- 1ent’s office or any type of program from the auditorium or gymnasium ' that in to be broadcast tof the rpoma. In addition to. having speakers in ' all regular classrooms, speakers have also keen installed in fthe principal's office, typing room, • lunch room, janitor’s office, shop,- opportunity room, garage and. the agriculture room in the Cedarville College Science Building. A total of twenty eight speakers is available for us. One of the most important uses for the radio is for making announce­ ments or sending massages to various rooms. It no longer will be necessary to take the students time by calling them to the auditorium for special meetings or to detain them ip .their home rooms while messages are de­ livered throughout the building. It is conservatively estimated that this one feature alone will save time equal to several days of (school throughout the year. This of course, results in ’increased-supervisory efficiency due to tim esaved. The public will appreciate this call system as a time saver when it. is necessary for them to get in touch with a pupil a t the school! Mabel Turner Ranks High Miss Mabel Turner, member of the Ideal class, tied for second place ’in the D, A. R. Citizenship Contest, in which one hundred forty-four senior girls throughout the state of Ohio participated. Mabel took the test in County Superintendent H. C, Ault- man’s office, Xenia, some time ago. Her paper was sent to Columbus to be graded and ranked with those.of other contestants from a ll. parts of Ohio. Mrs. Frank Cresweli, Ohio State Citizenship Chairman of the D. A, R., was notified Monday of Mabel’s success. Senior fxirls Visit Columbus As guests of the local chapter of D. A- R- three senior girls, Mabel Turner, Pauline Ferguson, and Rebecca Gal­ loway,. visited Columbus, Wednesday afternoon. This trip, made possible through the efforts of Mrs. Wilson Galloway and Mre. Frank Cresweli, was a re­ ward for the girls' participation in D .A, R. citizenship contest Plans for the afternoon included a visit to the State Legislature, where as Dr. W. R. McChesney’s guests the local girls wens to be presented to Governor Martin L. Davey, the House of Representaives, and Senate. Citizenship Essays Written Friday morning, -Mrs. W. W. Gal­ loway and Mrs. Frank Cresweli, rep­ resentatives of Cedar Cliff Chapter of the D< A. R., spoke briefly to the high school students of details of the Citizenship Contest being conducted in ths local schools again this year. After plans for an essay contest were announced, all students return* ad to their home rooms to writs as* LETTER TO THE EDITOR k i*‘. , 11."1"1"... ..... in»i.p..1J.II.I.I I MUM (Continued from first page) ■ :■ ■ . i . ■ he volunteered to canvass the south­ west and south portion of the propos­ ed route. His success was equal to my own and the business was completed so far as patronage was concerned. “Doc” returned to me the petition promptly and I took it in to Tom Tarbox, who was then Postmaster, told'him what I had, and that I wanted his indorse­ ment before sending it on to the 7th Dist Congressman, then •Hon. Seth Brown, of Warren County, I believe, who I would ask to deliver same to the -fiery little U. S. Senator from Ohio, Ben J. Foraker. Of course by this time it was noised about what was going on, and in Cedarville there were high-pitched protestations and and vigorous head shaking, and none more vigorous than was demonstrat­ ed by the Young Postmaster. No, no, he couldn’t sign my papers. All right Tom, said I,, but I’m leaving this peti­ tion here with you until Thursday, you think it over and I hope you’ll sign, but just the same that mail route is “in the bag.” He didn't think so, and when I left him his head was still shaking, the wrong way. That was Monday or Tuesday., Thursday I went down again, and 1 hadn't got. inside the front door of the P. 0. until I noticed Tom in the back of the room waving to me to come on bock where he was, Well Din, he said, I've decided to sign your papers. Bully for you, Tom, Was my response, and after a little longer chat, (which did not then di­ vulge his prior reluctance to indorse­ ment of the proposition), the petition papers were enveloped and on their way, with an accompanying letter to Hon. Seth Brown, then in Washington. Hardly had 1 gotten ont of the Post Office building into Main street’ until 1 ran into my brother-in-law, David Bradfute, and did he jump onto me? Here’s what he said, in part, “Lookey here, Din, you know Oscar and I have talked rural mail route for years, and now I understand you’ve gone ahead and got a route signed up for,, and eft us clean out in the cold.” Of course I had to plead guilty Under the circumstances, but , in order , to smooth his perhaps justified ire, I volunteered to meet Oscar and Will Conley and map out a route taking in ;heir territory which I admitted would not equal in all requirements Govern­ ment demands so fully as my No. 1. I am not so clear as to developments after this regarding that route, for they worked it out themselves. What was my surprise one day a little later when Tom Tarbox headed me off on- the street Saying, Dirt won’t you write me up a beading for another rural mail route petition, like you had on your own ? Going on to say, the people out in the Turnbull neighborhood Want their mail delivered too, Sure I would and sure he got it, but who did the work I must leave to those who know. All must have gone through in fine shape, for notification came that an inspector would arrive in Cedarville on a certain date to fol­ low out our projects. Tom was ’’Johnnie on the spot” to greet him, when he came, and never will I forget th£ thrill I got when down the pike came John Field's double team of trappy t gaited grey horfrs whichlng along a t, a speedy rate, John’s bast pig bearing Tom. and the inspector over Route Nq. 1. A J cheery greeting was waved to me,; away across the field from the high­ way, by both men, and I returned the salutation, too happy to work any longer, until I had notified Laura t knew what those wave’s meant. Suffice it to say all three route* wove indorsed by the inspector, and if I am not mistaken three carriers started out the same 1st morning over 1, 2 and 3; Oscar Satterfield, Will Spencer and Hugh Stormont hav­ ing the appointments respectively, as carriers, When we left Ohio in 1993 those boys, (they were then) still trailed respective lines, and so far as we know, but one to not a resident of Cedarville today, viz, Hugh S., though probably not carriers of rural mail. What we had in mind for Route No, 1 was elimination Of expense to Uncle Sam by shifting the Clifton Star Route, thus combining this.service to the greater benefit of along the way patrons. Prior to now, I intimated Tom Tar­ box had reasons for declining to in­ dorse my petition. That’s so long ago few would today guess what they mjght be. I ll tell you What he later on disclosed to me. Cedarville busi­ ness1’men were kicking like bay steers, because, aB they thought, if us country jakes didn’t have to come In’ for our mall, the.mail order houses,' and bigger business centers of Xenia and Springfield would corral our retail trade, and they’d be' in the soup. It didn’t happen that way however, did it fellows? A year after or there­ abouts of your Rural Routes establish­ ment, Tom came to me with profuse apologies, calling himself all kinds of foolish names, as he disclosed the in­ formation, his salary as Post Master, had been boosted 3209 per year, as a result of Postal business increase. Through memories vista I can still see Oscar Satterfield, in his new fangla mail wagon, fitted up in latest venience for. handling Uncle Sam’s distributions as he rolls along oh steel tires, yanked: into circulation by the little roan unwear-out-able pony sized horse. Doubtless he or some one . else makes the -trip in less than half the time, today, mounted on cushioned air, with’ self • heated blizzard-proof in­ closure, for a salary of, I don’t heed to guess, how many times the 1899 390 multiple.

Incubator of Dionne Quintuplets Among the other unusual exhibits planned for Bike’s Eighty Third An­ niversary Sale will be the original in­ cubator used by Dr. Dafoe for the famous quintuplets. As you recall, Dr, Dafoe sent oilt an urgent mes­ sage for an old-fashldned water heat­ ed style incubator. This was neces­ sary due to the fact that there was no electricity in the rural Canadian farmhouse where the '‘quints** were born. This together with a beauti­ ful original oil painting of the Dionne quintuplets will be shown* in Rik’e Infants’ Department on the Second Floor.

Ohio Bell Company’s Annual Report Recovery of the automobile in­ dustry and increased agricultural in­ come were listed as important factors in an improvement in business con­ ditions in Ohio in the annual report of the Ohio Bell Telephone Company made Tuesday a t the annual meeting in Cleveland, according to word re­ ceived by H- W, Cleaver, the Com­ pany’s Commercial manager. ' ‘There was a moderate rise in- the: level ot business, activity in Ohio dur­ ing’ 1935,” the rep^ri states. “Industry in Chip is closely relate, ed to and influenced by automobile; production, and a sUbtttahtial part of the Improvement during the past' year Is io attributed io the re­ covery of the automobile industry. Aititker factor of importance in the general improvement was :the rise in agricultural iaicoine,’' Following are among the high­ lights of "the report: . Net gain of 25,916 Ohio Bell’tele­ phones througnout the state, * Increases.in both local and long distance telephone traffic. Highest taxes in company’s history. Labor expenditure for necessary additions and Improvements. Substantial amounts paid out in pensions'and for employee sickness, accident, and .death benefits. Total payroll expenditures of 312,- 756,516. Improvement in revenues. Reflecting the improvement in in­ dustry and agriculture, the .company had* 575,816 telephones in service pt the end of 1935, compared with 549,- 90p at the end of the proceeding year, a net gain of 25,916. The gain for 1935, combined with a net gain of 18.474 telephones in 1934, represents slightly less than 25 per cent recovery of the net loss in telephones during the three depression years, the report points out. The number of Ohio Bell telephones installed in 1935 was 151,763, an in­ crease of 3.5 per cent over 1934, while 125,809 telephones were .disconnected, p decrease of 1.7 percent. Exclusive of minor adjustments, 277,- 572 . connections and disconnections were made m 1935, or about eleven seperate. operations for each net gain of cne telephone.
