With the clearing ND and passin

With the clearing up and passing
of the storm the authorities realize
the danger from melted snow with
the sure coming floods, and extra
precautions are being made to get
it where the last menace will be.
In Plymouth the city has gangs OF
men moving the snow away from the
curbs so that as it melts it can be
taken to the sewers gradually and
all effort will be made to protect
dangerous points. The Water Works
Superintendent has done all in his
power to keep clear the way to the
various valves. and other places
where In case of fire it would be
necessary to 60, and the Fire Chief
has placed team in the Fire
Engine house, hitched to the wagon
and ready for any call. Every fire
hydrant in the city is in working
order, and no main is yet frozen up.
Our citizens can rest assured
that all that can be done has been
and will be done to protect life and
property.

Road Improvement.

The town of Bourbon is arranging
to improve about two miles of her
streets the coming summer with paw
ing. At recent meeting held there
was discussion of the roads ques-
ton, over hundred interested
property owners being present. A
resolution was adopted favoring
building eight miles of stone roads,
and the opposition to the plan was
conferred in just one man of the
whole meeting. He may be a host
in himself, but the numbers are
against him, and he will likely be
brought round to agree with the
rest.
The lines laid out are in three
directions: One goes west from the
corporation line to the Armantrout
school house. One line runs two
miles east. The third runs north to
the johnson corners and west one
mile. In all some eight miles are
planned, and petition was at once
prepared, and will likely come be-
fore the Commissioners at their
March meeting, and it begins to look
as If Bourbon would have stone
roads this summer.
As We understand the law is that
these roads will be constructed at
the cost of the township where
situated. After they are built they
are kept up by the county, from q
tax that is levied for that purpose,
so that the entire county pays to
maintain the roads adjacent to Bour
bon.
How about it? Will Center get
busy and build some stone roads,
and have the county care for them
Or will this township go through
mud and over dirt roads that are
deep with sand and dust in dry time
and sticky mud when wets Plym-
outh boosters get busy.

Another Interurban Hint.

The Culver Citizen tells about
Harry Saline going to apply for a
franchise to run a pole line from
Culver to Plymouth. The object is
to get current for electric lighting.
The item says SIT is very definitely
promised that the South Bend and
Logansport interurban will be rum
ming into Plymouth by July L." Be-
sides this the editor goes on to tell
that the power is already contract
ed for with the Berrien Springs
company that is already furnis ling
power to South Bend, st. Joseph and
Elkhart, and therefore it will be an
easy proposition to tap the line and
run electricity to Culver, when they
get to Plymouth with it.
Several people will be glad to
know that there is a Every definite
promise that we will have intefur-
ban connection with South Bend
by July 1. Unfortunately it is not
stated what year this particular
"July l." comes in. May be it is
1921 instead of 1912 that it alluded

washington at the state Bank.

Cashier o. G.. Soice of the State
bank has undertaken to give series
of object lessons this year that are
attracting much attention. He had
the Christmas idea worked out, then
New Years day, and Lincoln s
birthday, and now he has worked out
the lessons to be learned from the
life of George Washington in unique
style.
Mr.. Washington sits at the table
with quill pen in hand, and others
lying near. He is in the act of writ
ing papers of state that are now
part of the history of the nation.
All the equipments for writing are
on the desk at which he sits, with
several books and a bunch of
flowers. He is dressed in Colonial
style with knee breeches and low
buckeled shoes. His three cornered
hat lies near BY, and his binocle
close at hand. About the room Mr..
Soice has displayed pictures of
Washington himself, and several
pictures showing incidents in his
life and times, notably the crossing
of the Delaware and signing the
Declaration of Independence.
The chopped down cherry tree
with the hatchet is there, with its
lesson for the youth, and number
of picture cards show various and
sundry incidents in his life. Taken
all in all, it is a means Of pressing
home to the boys and girls who look
in at the room, lessons that can
only inspire them to higher things,
and the older people, are brought
back in memory to their youthful
days, and reminded again of the
stories of their grandmothers and
grandfathers.
1t is good idea, and Mr.. Soice
has worked the Washington life out
in fine and instructive style.

WORST STORM IN YEARS

the Snow Fall IS . Record
Breaker.

Wednesday, Feb. 81, 1912, will go
into history as the toughest and
toughest day In the memory of the
oldest inhabitant. There was a
continual blow, twisting and swirl
ing, driving snow particles with
cutting velocity. The drifts are the
deepest ever, and one is compelled
to simply founder through. 1t is
extremely difficult to get any where
with horses, and business is well
nigh at a standstili. Snow drifts
in so fast that shoveling a path is
impossible, and it is useless to 60

perature has not been so cold, but
the biting wind, driving the snow
with such tremendous force, has Civ
en- us a new date to remember, not
the coolest, but the most disagree
able and stormy day ever seen in
Plymouth.

that swept the middle west We'd

words. 1t was the worst within the
memory of the Oldest resident. Not
only in Plymouth. out east and west
the accounts are given of wrecks on
railroads, stalled trains with intense
suffering by the imprisoned passen-
GERS, crews digging through drifts to
their reseue, in many places schools
were closed, and even business was
suspended, theatres closed, and ev-

the fierce winds. and flying snow,
