HORT
BY L. L. LONG
STRAW HAT SEASON is again in
vogue but most men have trouble
finding a day fit to wear them. The
cold, rainy weather of the past
month has hindered the sale and
wearing of straws but merchants as
a rule welcome the chance to move
the rest of their stock of felts before
the summer season comes. Before
the war and OPA, Panama straws
could be found for $5 but now they
average $15 or $20. Sailors, seldom
over $1 or $1.25 are now gracing the
shelves at $2 to $4, while other
straws are ranging from $4 to $6.
Rather popular this season are the
new rain-proof models, but you’ll al
ways find the usual crowd of boys
and young men who still prefer the
wind and the rain in their hair.
THURLAN KEYSER got an old
fashioned belling last week by his
friends and had to push his wife
around the square in a wheelbarrow,
much to the amusement of the spec
tators.
WEDDING BELLS are just begin
ning to ring in earnest, as dates for
two more have been announced,
June 4 and June 8. Two former
young people, now working else
where, are also reported to be about
ready to middle aisle it.
THERE”S AN OLD SAYING about
“Neither rain nor sun nor sleet, etc.,
etc., can stop these couriers from
their rounds”. Any way it’s grown
to be an old postoffice tradition and
last week they got a chance to live
up to it. During that heavy wind
and rain storm, the mail truck broke
down in Belle Valley but John
Kirchner and Lamar Dowling leaped
to the rescue with their cars and
brought it to Caldwell. You know,
the mail must go through!
BASKETBALL PICTURES of this
year’s Redskin team were taken last
week by Ralph Teters and presented
to the boys by John Kirchner and
Leonard L. Long in keeping with a
tradition established several years
ago.
DELBERT BROWN, who had been
counted on as one of Caldwell s
mainstays in basketball next year,
will not be around when that time
comes. Due to the fact that his
father has been transferred to Vin
ton county, Brownie will see action
with the Little Generals of Mc
Arthur.

NOBLE COUNTY Fish & Game
club met in regular session last week
with 30 members present. Final
plans were drawn up for the fish
supper to be held in the First Meth
odist church this Friday night, May
24. PLEASE don’t come without a
ticket as only 200 can be accomo
dated and all tickets have been sold.
If you failed to get a ticket this
year, better get your order in early
next year. During the business
meeting, conservation motion pic
tures were shown by County Agent
Henderson and J. Irvin Steiner.
JOHN WARGO, former instructor
at Belle Valley high school, will he
prsent at the fish super to show col
ored slides of scenes which he photo
graphed during his years in the
South Pacific with the armed forces.
Buck Rider, Ohio state conservation
director, will make the main address
a

ley of radio station WWVA will
furnish the music. Stanley is heard
each morning with Gay Swing and
his boys and plays the piano and ac
cordian. Game Protector R. W.
Parks has made arrangements to se
cure the fish for. the supper from
the Huron hatchery on Lake Erie
with 225 pounds of Lake Erie pick
erel ready to fry.
AMONG THOSE from Caldwell at
tending the baseball game at Cleve
land last Sunday were John Kirch
ner, Margaret Donohoo, Mr. and
Mrs. Leonard L. Ixng and Jack Wil
son. Cleveland lost both games to
the New York Yankees, 2-0 and 7-1,
thanks largely to the heavy bat
work of Joe Di Maggio.
THE SENIOR CLASS PLAY was a
howling success according to all re
ports with the audience even taking
part in the performance. Tickets
marked “voter” were given to vari
ous members of the audience at ran
dom and they voted on whether or
not to keep the preacher, Dale Ren
ner. Needless to say, he was re-
tained.

Quaker City Plans
Decoration Day Parade
Plans for Decoration Day, May 30,
are being made by the Quaker City
American Legion Post, with World
War II veterans taking a leading
part for the first time.
The parade will start at 1:00
o’clock from the school house and
march to Greenlawn cemetery where
services will be held. The parade
will then return to the Millwood

be conducted.
Immediately following, a short
program will be presented at the
school audditorium with an address
by Rev. Glen Warner of Caldwell,

All veterans are asked to turn out
in uniform for the services, meeting
at the Legion hall at 12:15. This is

all veterans regardless of the affili
ation with any veteran’s organiza
tion.
