EASTER EGG HUNT
PLANS COMPLETE
FUR SATURDAY
Gayly Colored Festive
Event Planned By
C. of C. Members
in
Unusual interest is being shown
the Easter egg hunt, sponsored by
the Noble county Chamber of Com
merce, and to be held on the court
house lawn in Caldwell, Saturday,
April 13. beginning promptly at 1:30
o’clock.
Various YY’erchants in the Caldwell
business zone are cooperating and
early reports indicate there will be
plenty of beautifully colored eggs for
all.
Merchants participating in the egg
hunt next Saturday, regardless of
whether they were solicited or not,
are asked to bring the colored eggs
to the first floor of the courthouse at
10 o’clock, Saturday morning. A re
presentative of the Chamber of Com
merce will be present as soon as
possible after the eggs have been
collected, they will be hidden in the
courthouse lawn.
This is the first time that such an
event has been held for the kiddies
in Noble county and any under 12
years of age are eligible to join in
the hunt.
Parents, who bring their small tots
to Caldwell next Saturday afternoon,
are requested to gather in front of
the Roxy theatre, and at the ap
pointed time, the chi'dren will be
turned loose on the courthouse lawn.
Attention is also drawn to the
trailer now being run at the Roxy
theatre, advertising this coming
event. This is also being financed by
the Noble Chamber of Commerce.
Merchants are normally busy on
Saturday but several veterans have
indicated their willingness to assist
C. of C. officials that morning, in
cluding John W. Hazard and William
Tarleton. If there are others who
would like to volunteer, they should
contact John D. Wheeler or Chester
Huprich, a committee of two, in
charge of the event.
The time is 1:30 p. m., Saturday
afternoon, April 13. The place of
assembly is the Roxy theatre, and
the starting whistle will probably be
blown by Harley Hill.

facing U. S. route 21, and will bear

It is unusual for the House of Representatives in
Washington, D. C., to take time out to hear tribute
paid to a single family, but that is exactly what hap
pened last Friday morning when Congressman P. W.
Griffiths of the fifteenth congressional district lavished
high praise on the seven sons of Mr. and Mrs. Charles
Fowler, of Spruce street, Caldwell, each of whom has
served or is serving in the United States army.
Congressman Griffiths told the House of Repre
sentative members that families such as the Fowlers
of Caldwell, Ohio, made for a bigger and greater
America.
On March 25, Dale Fowler became the seventh son
to be inducted into the army. He was sent to
Atterbury, Ind., and is now serving out his basic
training at Aberdeen, Maryland.
All have been released from the service
David Fowler, who* is still with the army of occupation
in Germany. With the exception of Dale Fowler, all
saw action overseas, with some of the toughest outfits
in the army and all returned home, uninjured.
Mr. and Mrs. Fowler are the parents of nine sons,
two of whom, Jack and Mack, are still in the grades.
The entire of Noble county joins with Congressman
Griffiths, the House of Representatives and The Jour
nal in extending praise to this couple, who more
any other, served their country by giving their
one by one, to preserve the cause of peace.
Pictured above are the seven sons of Mr. and
Fowler, who served in the United States army.
