The plaintiff charges non-support since May; 1928, when the couple separated, and requests custody of a minor child. Some months ago the County Com­ missioners, that is the two Demo­ cratic members, with the Republican member not voting, demanded the resignation o f Mr. and Mrs. A,' E Kildow, superintendent and matron of the Greene County Infirmary for the past twelve years. In view o f the fact that both' were under Civil Service they refused to resign and the matter laid dormant until Monday when the Democratic members authorized Prosecutor Mar­ cus Shoup to prepare a letter o f re­ moval as soon as possible. The Democratic members contend complaints have been made on numer­ ous times against Kildow and his wife, as to management of the home. The charges will be heard by the State Civil Service Commission.

The “ pld timers” tell me that has been the case ever since Ohio has been a state, but I can’t imagine nor comprehend that so far back, it has ever been as bad as it is today. When people from .thp four corners o f the State are sufficiently interested to write me about any subject, ex pressing similar ideas an that subject, I make it my business to determine the facts, if possible-lfchoreby form­ ulating statistics o f general interest. You wpuld naturally; expect im­ portant financial affairs of the State to be a matter of public record, and immediately accessible,'but often such is not the case,- owing .to complicated systems—and in many cases, an ex­ pressed desire to suppress the facts ■ather ^han freely to give them. As a result o f inquiries in my mail, some o f the facts-1 have established •which will be o f interest to you— .are: - For the first six months the OLD AGE PENSION law was in effect, 47,- 545 applications were approved, with an administrative cost o f $5.17 each; but for the succeeding: 22 months— 43,323 applications wero approved at an administrative cost of $26.61 each.

The receipts from the Ohio SALES TAX for the firsfr four weeks of January, 1936, were .$8,807,822.30— and for the same period in 1937 they were $3,304,138.87. , For th& mouth- o f.

The summer school closes formally with commencement exercises on Fri day, August 13, at 10;3Q a. m, Dealers To Get State Licenses A recent statute, passed by the Ohio Legislature which has just be­ come effective, requires that all live­ stock dealers and auction markets must be licensed. By the statute, the department o f agriculture o f Ohio through the division o f animal in­ dustry, is charged with the enforce­ ment of the law and regulations to prevent the spread o f disease in live­ stock. Because the law was not as yet been fully publicized there are som.e dealers, state officials say, who have not secured licenses: Some complaints against unlicensed dealers have been registered w?6h the department by farmers and others. In order. to secure enforcement of the statute,-a representative o f the division of animal industry has been assigned t.o Clark County with in­ structions to check unlicensed dealers: and obtain evidence for. use in prosecu­ tion. Unlicensed dealers, the department says, have evaded responsibility in selling diseased and disease-exposed livestock and the purchaser o f such animals has a limited chance o f re­ covering losses. An application for .-a license can be obtained from the office o f the state veterinarian, Columbus, and no fee is charged for the license.

J. Davis. The* report1shows Greene county to have a total o f $731.20 miles of public roads,, including 107.60 in the state system, 359.10 maintained by the county and 264.50 by the township. The state-maintained roads include 19.67 miles of concrete, 9.50 miles of bituminous concrete, 9.50 miles of bituminous macadam, 29.96 miles of waterbound macadam and 27.35 miles of stone or gravel. The county rbad system includes 68.80 miles o f waterbound macadam and 290.30 miles of stone or gravel surface treated. All of the township roads are surface treated with stone or gravel, the report showed. you would be demanding to know why —and making .every possible effort to find out why—or at least, you should be. There is an answer to all questions and circumstances, to be sure, but to know the whole story—and to deter­ mine all the facts—o f the few ex­ amples given hero—would take all of any -ordinary, man’s time for the full period o f any usual legislative session —which, of course, is not possible. Therefore, committees are appointed -—to determine facts and recommend advisable changes. But lo and behold! —the Governor was of a different miles an hour.

Cleaner Sidewalks and Repairs Needed One thing that reflects civic pride is not only good sidewalks but clean sidewalks, especially in front o f busi­ ness houses. There are several places in the center o f town where the side­ walk is in heed o f repair and numer­ ous places where the curb is broken out and in dangerous condition to pedestrians. Any person suffering in­ jury due to faulty walks lias recourse against the village as well as the own­ er of tho property. Cleaner side walks in front of business property reflects good taste.

Sometime ago an article appeared in the newspapers on the subject of heart disease. In that article it was pointed out that heart disease was the leading cause o f death in the United States. The causes of heart disease weto also listed. It was suggested that at least 18 per cent o f all heart cases were'syphilitic, We believe that many o f those cases labelled arterio sclerotic, chronic myocarditis, coronary sclerosis, thrombosis, occlusion and. angina pectoris are also syphilitic. So the actual percentage of syphil­ itic heart disease would run consider­ ably higher than 18 per cent. By the time syphilitic heart disease manifests itself as such, the damage has been largely done and no amount o f treat­ ment can repair that damage. The most’ that'treatment can do is pre­ vent further ravages, therefore the importance o f early diagnosis of syphilis. Early diagnosis and adequate treat­ ment of syphilis would prevent at .least 18 per cent o f heart disease cases.. The prevention o f 18 out of 3very 100 heart cases would certainly be a very marked gain. Construct Drier For Hybrid Corn YELLOW SPRINGS.—A t an esti­ mated cost o f $10,000, Antioch College is; building a two-story structure for use in curing hybrid seed corn.
